STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES

Bridge4PS was developed to provide a secure, collaboration platform for public safety practitioners across the nation. Unlike other platforms which are geared towards internal department communications, Bridge4PS was built deliberately to facilitate multi-organizational information sharing and interoperability based on the following Strategic Objectives:

Build an Exclusive Collaboration Platform for Public Safety

Deliver a Secure and Highly Available Product

Protect the Integrity of the Bridge4PS User Community

Provide Expedient Access to Eligible Users

Facilitate Interoperability Across Disciplines, Geographies, or Organizations

Remain Network and Device Agnostic

Maintain Features Effective for ANY public Safety Operations

Developing a tool that successfully achieved all of these objectives was no trivial task, but now Bridge4PS is being used daily by thousands of public safety practitioners across the United States sharing hundreds of thousands of messages and files. As our user base grows, we continue to evolve the platform and adapt our policies and procedures to support new use cases. All decisions are weighed against our Strategic Objectives and openly communicated to the entire Bridge4PS User Community.
