Transaction adds crime analysis, predictive
policing and citizen engagement applications to cloud-based
solutions
Motorola Solutions has acquired PublicEngines, a privately held
provider of cloud-based solutions that deliver crime analysis,
predictive policing and citizen engagement capabilities for law
enforcement agencies, governments and other organizations.
“The acquisition of PublicEngines reinforces Motorola Solutions’
commitment to helping our customers implement intelligence-led
strategies that deter crime and improve outcomes,” said Bob
Schassler, executive vice president, Solutions and Services,
Motorola Solutions. “As agencies work with an increasing amount of
data from videos, photos, social media, sensors and other sources,
our Smart Public Safety Solutions help harness that data to gain
key intelligence and integrate it seamlessly into their operations.
This helps law enforcement anticipate and respond to incidents with
the best information available.”
PublicEngines’ intelligence-led public safety and citizen
engagement products include:
- CommandCentral Analytics,
which provides public safety customers with the ability
to make better decisions by visualizing data in analytical
dashboards or on maps and sharing information between
jurisdictions
- CommandCentral Predictive, with
leading-edge predictive policing technology, which makes tactical
recommendations about where to allocate resources, when to patrol
and what to watch for to best prevent crime
- CrimeReports, the most popular
online crime-mapping solution available, which makes it easy
to share crime information and alerts with citizens
through a customer-branded website or app
- TipSoft, the industry's most
widely adopted tip management platform, which allows organizations
to receive tips and respond to them while maintaining the
source’s anonymity throughout the investigation
This acquisition advances Motorola Solutions’ strategy to
revolutionize public safety's use of available data to gain
actionable intelligence to support its mission. The combination of
CommandCentral with Motorola Solutions’ situational awareness
offerings will establish an unmatched platform for delivery of
intelligence-led public safety capabilities. Additionally, the
citizen engagement products bolster the company’s ability to help
agencies openly and transparently interact with citizens to create
safer and better-informed communities.
“PublicEngines complements Motorola Solutions’ business, and we
look forward to working together to leverage its strengths as a
global industry leader in enhancing crime analysis and citizen
engagement for public safety,” said William Kilmer, CEO of
PublicEngines.
Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Salt Lake City,
PublicEngines serves more than 2,000 customers, primarily in North
America. All PublicEngines capabilities are delivered as
cloud-based applications, scalable to even the smallest public
safety agencies. No additional hardware is required and setup
typically is completed remotely in just a day.
This is Motorola Solutions’ second acquisition this year of
software-based Smart Public Safety Solutions providers. In
February, the company acquired Emergency CallWorks, a provider of
web-based Next-Generation 9-1-1 call-taking software for public
safety.
Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. Public Engines now
is a wholly owned subsidiary of Motorola Solutions.
