Challenge

Our USA-based client is a prominent and integral public safety organization efficiently managing and maintaining multiple state counties, localities. In order to maintain law and order in the counties, they needed to build software that abided by a wide range of law enforcement acts. Officials at multiple levels such as state, federal, and local use this solution to pledge law and order in their respective states and localities.

To address the needs of the client, we recommended developing a common application portal that is responsible for all the events occurring within their areas. This application is intended to include attributes such as Field Training, Use of Force, Employee Training Records Management, Field Investigation Reporting, Profiling, Immigration Investigation, Internal Affairs Investigations, Vehicle Pursuits, Employee Complaints, Employee Traffic Crash Reporting Key and many more.

Some of the Key Challenges of the project were:

  • Multiple agencies of different states required a centralized application portal for logging and accessing various software(s)
  • Data Security was an alarming concern
  • Need for customized authentication engines (Agency wise) to support various kinds of authentications such as Form, LDAP, Azure AD & ADFS
  • Inability to create dynamic forms for agencies- state wise
  • Abscence of an early warning system or statistical reporting tool
