Why CORE

When seconds and details both matter

Command, negotiators, intel, investigators, and field units — all working from the same live data, on the worst day and the longest case.

🎯

Command your resources

See every unit, team, and asset on one live tactical map. Assign, track, and reposition resources as the situation evolves — accountability that radio traffic and whiteboards can't give you.

📡

One picture, every team & agency

Mutual aid, task forces, and multi-agency response all work from the same data. Anything entered anywhere appears everywhere — across teams and across agencies — in true real time.

📑

After-action, automatically

Every entry, edit, and decision is time-stamped and attributed the moment it happens. When the incident closes, your after-action report and audit trail are already written.

Not just emergencies

Your investigations, finally visualized.

Records management systems store your case. CORE lets you see it. Map every location, person, and vehicle. Build a living timeline. Connect associates, intel, and evidence. Reopen a cold case and pick up exactly where the picture left off — something an RMS can never do.

Built for the legwork

Canvass the block — and never lose track.

Early in a case, investigators knock on doors and hunt for cameras. CORE turns that legwork into a living map: mark every address you've contacted, log exactly what they said, and pin every camera that still needs to be collected. Nothing gets double-knocked, no footage gets missed, and the next shift picks up right where you left off.

FAQ

Common questions

What is CORE?

CORE (Command Operations Response Engine) is real-time incident command and investigation software for law enforcement and first responders. It gives command staff, field units, negotiators, and investigators one shared, live operating picture — tactical map, running event log, chat, and intel — instead of whiteboards, radio-only accountability, and disconnected spreadsheets.

Is CORE CJIS compliant?

Yes. CORE is built with CJIS-compliance technology: sensitive criminal-justice information is stored in AWS GovCloud, and every view, edit, and entry is audit-logged and attributed. This makes it suitable for handling CJI during both active incidents and investigations.

Can CORE be used for investigations, not just emergencies?

Absolutely. CORE lets investigators visualize major cases — homicides, missing persons, human trafficking, and cold cases — by mapping every person, location, and vehicle, building a living timeline, and tracking witness and video-camera canvassing. It surfaces connections a records management system (RMS) simply can't show.

What is witness and video canvassing in CORE?

CORE turns neighborhood canvassing into a living map: investigators mark every address contacted (interviewed, no-answer, refused), attach what each occupant saw or heard, and pin every surveillance camera whose footage still needs to be collected — so nothing gets double-knocked and no video gets missed.

Does CORE support multiple teams and agencies at once?

Yes. CORE is built for mutual aid, task forces, and unified command. Information entered by any team or agency instantly appears on every connected screen in true real time, with role-based access and per-team chat channels.

What types of incidents does CORE handle?

CORE supports SWAT call-outs and barricaded/hostage situations, active shooter and mass-casualty events, search & rescue, natural disasters, dignitary protection, civil disturbance, and EOC / unified command activations — plus long-running major investigations.
