About EnforceNet

Digital Blue is a public safety company offering iOS and Android apps designed to make life easier for police officers in the field. Their apps enable access to a Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) from a smartphone or tablet and as such, require the highest security standards.

The company’s goal, first and foremost, is to improve public safety. They aim to do this by creating a network of first responders using open standards and a mobile-first approach that addresses the needs of these professionals while in the field. They turned to Making Sense for help with developing the required software.

The starting point

They needed a Mobile Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) that:

  • Give optimum experience for public safety officials.
  • Provide highly accurate information of call for service situations.
  • Facilitates the receipt of near real-time emergency alerts.
  • Should be easily used for officials.

The goal

To provide visibility to public safety officials

Our main goal was to create a software designed to provide visibility to public safety officials about conflict situations, leveraging a timely common operating picture to articulate actions and maximize mission success.

What we did!

We created a public safety software that allows to receive near real-time emergency alerts on the Mobile through a CAD system. The app is CJIS Compliant, Mobile first approach with a non proprietary public safety network. This all-inclusive software suite includes BOLO alerts, mapping, alert system, chats, system records, among others.

A strong solution

The tech stack

We decided to work with Docker 18 to encapsulate apps into services, .NETCore 2.0 as a development platform for our Backend services, RabbitMQ 3.7 as our queue server to process messages asynchronously and PostgreSQL 10.4 as our database storage.

We choose Xamarin as our Mobile development framework, Google Maps and Google Routing API as a map location and routing service.
