Smart Scheduling for Mission Critical Operations

Improve Staffing Management and Self-Service Scheduling Efficiencies

While spreadsheets or simple one-size-fits-all scheduling software may work for some organizations, they certainly can't support the complexities of your public safety operations. With complicated policy rules and staffing levels at an all-time low, you need something smarter.  You need something to quickly fill vacancies, reassign personnel, and send push notifications. Something that automates unique policies for your different Divisions that includes self-service scheduling efficiencies.

You need Orion.

Turbo Charge Your Interfaced CAD System

Manually updating personnel and equipment data in CAD systems for one or more agencies is labor intense. With Orion's centralizing efficiencies, your integrated CAD system will automatically receive roll call personnel, operational equipment, and scheduling data in real-time.

 

CAD will automatically remain synchronized with continuously changing resource data -- such as personnel that have acquired new certifications, changed radios or have pre-assigned vehicles.

 

There are no more delays, duplicate data rejections, or need to make personnel, vehicle, or radio updates. Instead your dispatchers can focus on the  job they were hired to do ... that of dispatching.
