Revolutionizing Crime Data Collection
with NIBRS Compliance
The National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) transforms crime data collection by capturing comprehensive details about individual incidents. This includes in-depth information on victims, offenders, their relationships, and property involved. Unlike the outdated UCR Summary System, NIBRS provides enhanced context and circumstances for crimes, ensuring more accurate and actionable crime statistics. Transitioning to NIBRS compliance is vital for law enforcement agencies striving to meet modern crime reporting standards.
Effortless NIBRS Reporting
The ARMS platform streamlines NIBRS reporting, equipping patrol officers with user-friendly tools to quickly collect and report data without being tied to a desk.
By simplifying the complexities of NIBRS data submission, ARMS ensures officers can focus on what matters most—fieldwork and public safety.
Seamless NIBRS Review & Compliance
ARMS offers a powerful NIBRS Review feature, enabling records personnel to validate and manage NIBRS-reportable data from case reports.
This ensures all submitted data complies with FBI standards while preserving the critical details needed for prosecution.
Comprehensive Auditing & Submissions
With ARMS Mobile, patrol officers can effortlessly input NIBRS-compliant data on the go.
The Report Center empowers records personnel to audit monthly submissions, ensuring all cases meet state and FBI requirements before submission.
This comprehensive approach reduces errors, enhances compliance, and simplifies the entire reporting process.
A user-friendly end-to-end suite of solutions that cover all public safety needs.
