Chief, We've got your Six on Technology

• Budget pressure is constant. Technology competes with apparatus, equipment, and personnel. Every dollar needs justification.

• You're not an IT expert—and shouldn't have to be. But you need to make informed decisions and explain them to your board.

• Compliance keeps you up at night. CJIS, HIPAA, NFPA—the acronyms keep coming and the stakes keep rising.

• Your current IT support doesn't get fire service. They don't understand 24/48 shifts, mutual aid, or why the CAD absolutely cannot go down.

• Strategic planning feels impossible. You're too busy fighting today's fires (literal and figurative) to plan for technology needs 3-5 years out.

Virtual CIO Services

Strategic technology leadership without the six-figure salary. We attend board meetings, develop technology roadmaps, evaluate vendors, and translate IT into terms your commissioners understand.

Budget-Aligned Planning

We develop IT plans that align with your budget cycles and capital replacement schedules. No surprise expenses. No emergency purchases. Predictable technology spending.

Grant Support

We provide technical specifications, cost estimates, and supporting documentation for AFG, SAFER, and state grant applications. Technology funding shouldn't come out of your operating budget when grants are available.

Vendor Translation

We evaluate vendor proposals, attend sales presentations with you, and cut through the jargon to tell you what you actually need versus what they're trying to sell you.

Compliance Peace of Mind

We own the technical side of CJIS and HIPAA compliance so you can focus on operations. When auditors come, we're prepared.

We're not IT people who learned about fire service. We're fire service people who became IT experts. Our team includes current and former firefighters, paramedics, and EMS chiefs with 150+ years of combined experience in emergency services.

We've been on the apparatus when the MDC dropped. We've worked the dispatch console when the CAD crashed. We've tried to document a patient care report on a tablet that won't connect. We understand your world because we've lived it.

We hold ourselves to the highest standards of professionalism and integrity. Our staff is dedicated to providing exceptional public safety services with fairness and impartiality.

We offer a range of volunteer opportunities for community members to get involved and make a difference. Join our team and help us build a safer community.

 Schedule a call with our team. No sales pitch—just a conversation about your department's technology challenges and whether we might be the right partner to help solve them.
