National Crime Prevention Week is a reminder that stopping crime doesn’t start at the scene, it begins with preparation, awareness, and the right tools. Today, agencies across the country face a common challenge: data is abundant, but insights are often scattered and slow to arrive. That’s where ForceMetrics Velocity™ steps in.

The newest episode of ForceFeedback is here: "Leading Forward," where we're joined by CEO, Andre McGregor, CTO, Jason Truppi, and CRO, Tim Sadler, who share how ForceMetrics is driving impact and continuing to tackle the challenges law enforcement faces every day.
At an apartment complex, officers came across a chilling discovery: a suicide note. The note was smeared with blood and carried only two first names: the writer’s, and that of their child. With no last name, no clear address, and almost no information to help, time was slipping away, and the risk of tragedy grew heavier with every passing moment.
This successful operation demonstrated the power of real-time intelligence. Without ForceMetrics Velocity providing timely insight into the burglary connection, the officers on the ground would not have had such swift and critical information at their disposal. By delivering this intelligence rapidly, they ensured officer safety, protected the public, and took dangerous individuals off the street.
In public safety, technology isn’t just “another tool,” it’s a lifeline. The right platform can save time, protect communities, and keep officers safer. The wrong one? It can waste budgets, frustrate your team, and leave you no better off than before.Whether you’re a chief weighing a million-dollar decision, a crime analyst who will be knee-deep in the data, or a patrol sergeant who needs answers in seconds, these are the questions you should be asking...before you sign on the dotted line.
From faster workups to streamlined investigations, Winston-Salem’s Real Time Crime Center is unlocking speed, accuracy, and insight with ForceMetrics. Sergeant Bradley Richardson and Senior Crime Analyst, Travis Swain share how Velocity's ease of use makes every second count—and inspires Sergeant Richardson's 5 S's of ForceMetrics.
The RTCC team wasted no time. Using ForceMetrics Velocity™ and a combination of investigative resources, they began a “workup:” a detailed intelligence package on the suspect. They combed through data points, cross-referenced databases, and pieced together a digital trail from fragments.
