TESTIMONIALS

Operation Metro Surge required constant coordination across multiple agencies. Bridge4PS made it much easier to share information in real time and keep everyone working from the same operational picture compared to previous civil unrest responses.
Sheriff Dawanna WittHennepin County
Fugitive apprehension requires constant coordination between investigators, analysts, deputies in the field, and partner agencies. Bridge4PS gives our team a secure, real-time way to share intelligence and keep operations moving safely and efficiently.
Sheriff Bo StallmanBrazoria County
Integrating Bridge4PS and TAK creates an interoperable, clear, and secure picture, turning fragmented information into coordinated action and empowering responders to serve with unity, confidence, and purpose.

Using Bridge has renewed my passion for this job. It reduces the stress that comes with endless calls and coordination issues. Now, I can focus on what matters most—serving our community and keeping my team safe. It’s like having a trusted partner every step of the way."
Daniel Mendez, Fire Chief,La Salle County
Bridge4PS combined with the TX TAK Server has provided critical and timely information sharing for numerous critical incidents since its inception. We are able to collaborate across multiple agencies and provide solutions to problems through these platforms.

If you're an agency looking to level up your communication, look no further than Bridge 4 Public Safety! Radios, CAD, phones, etc. all have their limitations. B4PS brings endless capabilities when it comes time to communicate internally and across numerous jurisdictions, especially during major incidents.
Sergeant Ryan DammHennepin County
Bridge4ps is very easy to use. It's a great tool. We can all collaborate, be on one page and be safe. And that is the main thing – to keep our constituents safe out there.
Lolo Martinez III - County Judge,Cotulla ISD
When I received deployment orders to Kerrville as the COML, I created a Bridge4PS channel, “KERR COMU,” before leaving home and asked a colleague to begin adding relevant personnel. By the time I arrived, more than 20 people were already in the channel. We used it constantly to update locations for deployable assets and source equipment in one place, often getting immediate responses from others in the channel. It was a true force multiplier, allowing us to quickly add personnel as the incident expanded, including responders from other states and federal partners. This made it easy to onboard Communications Unit members who had never used Bridge4PS. At the peak, the channel had over 50 participants and remained active even after demobilization for follow-up coordination.
