Bell County, Texas, Modernizes Records Management System to Support Multi-Agency Needs
To support the diverse information management needs of multiple law enforcement agencies, Bell County, Texas, deployed a web-based records management system (RMS) to ensure future expandability, inter-agency data sharing, and easier maintenance.
The Challenge
Located in central Texas, Bell County is home to more than 320,000 citizens spread across 1,100 square miles. Within the county, there are 24 separate police agencies, two prosecutory agencies, and a centralized dispatch center – each with diverse investigation information and incident records needs.
To support the distinct record management needs of these agencies, Bell County, Texas, required an easy-to-maintain enterprise information system that offered robust data collection, sharing, and integration capabilities. Bell County, Texas also wanted a solution that would not only support its immediate needs, but provide the flexibility and scalability to meet future requirements.
The Solution
A long-time partner of Hexagon’s Safety & Infrastructure division, Bell County, Texas, deployed a web-based RMS specifically designed for law enforcement agencies.
Powered by Hexagon technology, Bell County, Texas, has implemented a robust solution that houses investigative information for policing agencies within the county. Bell County’s law enforcement agencies also have a central data repository that allows them to share information with neighboring jurisdictions, integrate data from other critical systems, and lower their technical ownership costs.
Because Hexagon’s solution is a web-based application, Bell County has an RMS that is flexible enough to handle the growing information needs of the agencies it serves.
