LITTLETON, COLO. –BlueStreak Connect announced today the availability of Connect Suite, the first powerful, affordable , easy-to-use automated field reporting system designed specifically for the needs of small-to-mid sized law enforcement organizations. Connect Suite is a managed services solution that provides comprehensive field reporting capabilities while eliminating the need for costly technical resources, hardware investments and maintenance costs.
“The cost of running a local police department has risen to over $93,000 per sworn officer or $200 per local resident,” said Steve Rodgers, Chief Executive Officer of BlueStreak Connect. “BlueStreak is now offering local police departments a powerful field reporting capability once only available for much larger metropolitan police departments, at a cost that’s less than $2 per day per officer.
The Connect Suite Solution Connect Suite is an easy-to-learn, easy-to-use system for police officers to collect, query, report, manage and share information on virtually any law enforcement incident. The Suite is comprised of Connect Interviewer, a questionnaire-based tool for data collection and a routing engine to secure electronic approvals; Connect Inquiry, that provides access to local departmental information; Connect Mobile, data collection and reporting for mobile environments; and Connect Statistics, a “dashboard presentation” of real-time departmental statistics.
