Streamlining Your Process Saves Money, Too Intergraph s public safety solutions provide a onestop information center for public safety agencies. Now, every detail of an incident can be neatly wrapped together, so that, for example, investigators can access and review all records fire, police, emergency medical personnel in one set of reports, which can later be reviewed during the legal process. By giving field personnel access to incident information and giving them the ability to read, retrieve, and input data the reduction in paperwork and duplication of effort can be as dramatic as the money savings. In addition, the efficiencies that Intergraph s public safety solutions afford can significantly enhance the development of your organization s best practices and procedures. So you can streamline processes and save money. Reporting and Analysis Tools Leverage Your Data Public safety agencies generate volumes of valuable data, which is captured in public safety applications such as CAD and records management systems. For instance, your CAD system records vital emergency call information such as time, location, and unit response. Your records management system logs accidents, arrest reports, citations, dispositions, known offenders, gang activity, and more. Intergraph s enterprise-class Reporting and Analysis solution adds value to this information by letting you interactively explore the data in industry-standard terms, without having knowledge of the database structure in which it is stored. You can present quality reports from Intergraph applications, visualize and explore information from those applications, and perform real-time performance monitoring using dashboards. You can also distribute and access information through secure portals. These functions are useful in exploring and exposing relationships and trends; improving query capabilities, reporting, and analysis; and helping you achieve operational excellence. Our tools mine the data hidden within your complex database structures, integrate it into your business processes, and improve organizational response. 4
