"Timely, accurate and shared information is critical to the operations of every criminal justice agency in New Orleans. Post-Katrina manpower shortages made labor saving efficiencies like CourtNotify, even more important."
Dr. Heidi Unter, New Orleans Police and Justice Foundation
“The reports that we get from the CourtNotify system regarding the use of an officer's’ time at court are invaluable. It shows us which courts consume our resources and helps us more accurately predict our usage of overtime for the fiscal year. In the first full year of implementation, we saved approximately $2.2 million in court overtime.” Lt. Gene Summers, Dallas Police Dept.
Officers receive and acknowledge court notifications in real-time using their CourtNotify account or the mobile app for iOS or Android devices. Court events are synced with officers’ on-duty schedules and scheduling conflicts are flagged. Officer schedules can be managed within the system or imported from existing scheduling platforms.
When used with CourtNotify, officers receive their court notifications with logistical and defendant information in real-time. Once received, easy confirmation acknowledgments are saved and can be viewed by all CourtNotify users. What's more, Mobile geofencing can be configured to track officer courthouse check ins/outs.
It's efficient, cost effective and easy to use.
A companion to CourtNotify, AttendanceTRKR can be used on any type of web-based device to track personnel check-in and check-out times regardless of courthouse locations. Rules can be applied to ensure that officers do not check into events too early or remain too long after their cases have concluded. It includes the ability to collect case information based upon the location and type of attendance being requested.
With this solution, you can quantify the previously unquantifiable.
