Tired of handwritten log books? How would you
like to process evidence in minutes by using a single input screen with an
auto-fill feature? Wouldn’t you like to conduct an audit in hours instead of
days or weeks?
Well, the features of the
PMI Evidence Tracker™
can help you do exactly that. Our powerful evidence management system
is a full turnkey tracking system
specifically created to automate the control of police evidence and department
equipment. The key to the program is the use of barcode technology to manage and
track evidence and department assets, thereby saving you a great deal of time
and effort. Imagine scanning barcodes instead of handwriting or typing
information to quickly retrieve records or process items in and out of your
property room. Our site license allows you to install the software on your
server and access the program from any work station on the network without
additional fees.
The Evidence Program
The evidence portion of the
PMI Evidence Tracker™
system can help you be more efficient in a number of ways.
Each piece of evidence is identified with a
special label that is nearly indestructible and designed to last for years. The
label contains all the important information about the item along with barcodes
encoded with the case number and the tracking number. The barcodes are used to
facilitate adding other pieces of evidence with the same case number, as well
as, moving items in and out of the evidence room, creating receipts, performing
searches and conducting complete audits.
Equally important is
the addition of a Portable Data Terminal that enables you to conduct an
automated inventory of your property room saving you lots of time and effort.
The program and Portable Data Terminal create an environment where an audit can
be completed in hours by simply scanning barcodes.
Safety and security can be a
crucial issue for police departments, which is why the PMI Evidence Tracker
includes an automated chain of custody with a time/date stamp for each piece of
evidence. The software also has password protection to control access to the
various parts of the program. The system administrator can assign a unique
username and password to each officer and authorize which parts of the program
he or she can access.
In our newest edition, we have added an Activity Log that will report every
entry and change made in the program by an each user. Also, you will find two
customizable user defined fields, a 90-day evidence review and the ability to
include a photo of a piece of evidence for quick reference.
The
Asset Program
The asset portion of the
PMI Evidence Tracker™ system includes
features such as assigning a category, manufacturer, model, acquisition date,
assigned to, value and a detailed description of each piece of police property.
You can enter and label everything from guns and cruisers to desks and
computers, thereby keeping track of who has what item and where the items are
located. You can create standard asset reports and receipts, or even use our
newest feature, which allows for custom asset reporting. The optional Portable
Data Terminal can also be used for conducting an audit of your police department
equipment.
System
Requirements
The software will operate on any computer system running Windows 95, 98, NT,
XP, 2000, on a single user PC, peer-to-peer network, or network server.
