Rapid Response testimonials

"We received a call for a structure fire, and Rapid Response quickly showed us that the fire was in a detached private dwelling before arriving at the scene. We were able to decide which hydrant we should use before getting there, and your tool was able to give us a 360 size-up without having to wait for the crew to walk the perimeter."

“Before we installed this product, I never realized the potential of computing power to firefighters. Not only does this pinpoint the nearest working hydrants, but it also instantly communicates turn-by-turn instructions to get to the fire.”

“While the call ended up not being a working fire, we were able to see the different types of commercial occupancies in the building before arriving at the scene. Our crew was able to decide which hydrant to use before arriving at the scene, and the 360 dynamic view showed us the layout on the roof of the occupancy and the heavy equipment that was on top.”

“We pulled up to a warehouse fire during a major snowstorm. We knew there were two hydrants within range. We knew that one was not functioning but both were covered with snow. The Rapid Response Software quickly located the working hydrant and sent us the GPS coordinates so we were able to get right to work.”

“With Rapid Response, our crew was able to see that the fire was in a detached private dwelling before arriving at the scene. The rotating 360 degree view also showed photovoltaic panels fixed to the roof. This is important because it is a new obstacle facing the fire service, and members may still be learning the tactics to deal with such a system.”

"We had a structure fire with both overhead wires and tree branches blocking tower ladder and aerial ladder operations. We were able to size that up on the way to the job and come up with our Plan B and C before we even exited the rig. Outstanding."
