Mark43, a leading cloud-based public safety software company, and New Gold ‘ASTORS’ Award Winner for Best Public Safety Workforce Management in the AST 2021 Homeland Security Awards Program, is pleased to announce the Elk Grove Police Department in California has selected Mark43’s Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) and Records Management System (RMS) single-platform solution for implementation.
Elk Grove will pair this new comprehensive technology solution with their department’s Real-Time Information Center which provides them a real-time view of everything going on in the area.
Mark43’s technology will benefit 151 RMS users, 22 dispatchers, and the public safety of all surrounding communities by providing up-to-date, accurate data concerning public safety matters of the community at large.
Elk Grove selected Mark43 following a thorough review of systems, as Mark43’s RMS offers the ultimate report writing experience in the market.
Mark43 CAD is the best-designed public safety dispatch platform in the market, while the RMS sets the industry bar for ease-of-use, reporting speed, and data accuracy.
Crucial to their Real-Time Information Center’s initiatives, Mark43’s platform centralizes CAD and RMS data reports instantaneously to better inform agency decisions.
The application natively handles all National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) (and state-specific IBRS) rules and validations, generates all necessary reports, and keeps agencies 100% compliant.
Elk Grove is currently reporting to the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) public safety system, but with Mark43’s technology, they will also be able to submit reports to the California Incident-Based Reporting System (CIBRS), as well as NIBRS.
Mark43’s RMS is capable of achieving a 0 percent error rate for NIBRS-compliant reporting.
Per the FBI, all 18,000 law enforcement agencies in the United States were required to have NIBRS-compliant reporting by January 1, 2021, putting Mark43’s customers like Elk Grove on an effortless path to meeting reporting standards.
Mark43’s platform is designed to mirror the way a user thinks; data input and is logical and sensible but can also be flexible when the user requires.
Design patterns are codified and reused, making all parts of the application feel familiar while improving both processing speed and data accuracy.
The mission-driven team also offers 24/7/365 support to ensure customers receive not only the latest technology, but also the best support in the public safety industry.
“We are proud to select Mark43 as our technological support system for Elk Grove PD initiatives,” according to Chris Hill, Information Technology Manager of the Elk Grove Police Department.
“The real-time accuracy of data reports that Mark43’s centralized system provides is ideal for our Real-Time Information Center’s efforts to keep the wider community safe and informed.”

In the days that followed 9/11, the critical needs of protecting our country catapulted us into new and innovative ways to secure our homeland – which is how many of the agencies and enterprise organizations that are today ‘ASTORS’ Awards Champions, came into being.
Our keynote speaker featured a moving and informative address from TSA Administrator and Vice-Admiral of the United States Coast Guard (Ret), David Pekoske; to our attendees who traveled from across the United States and abroad, on the strategic priorities of the 64,000 member TSA workforce in securing the transportation system, enabling safe, and in many cases, contactless travel.
