From procurement to custody, service and retirement.
Quartermaster connects purchasing and warehouse inventory to the people, vehicles and locations that depend on the equipment—without forcing public-safety property into a customer-sales process.
Core Capabilities: Public-safety inventory management with real custody controls.
Use one connected system for consumables, serialized equipment, vehicle stock, purchasing, employee requests, equipment quotas, expiration management, maintenance and command reporting.
Inventory Across Stations & Vehicles
Track equipment in warehouses, armories, stations, vehicles and other operational locations, including transfers and availability.
Barcode & Serial Tracking
Scan inventory and preserve the exact serial number issued, returned, repaired, lost, stolen or retired.
Purchasing & Replenishment
Manage vendors, price lists, purchase orders, receipts, reorder policies and stock replenishment from the same operational data.
Role-Based Equipment Eligibility
Show personnel the gear authorized for their job role and enforce configurable quotas to prevent over-issuance.
