This year was a breakout year for ForceMetrics. From major product launches to meaningful moments in the law enforcement community, 2025 marked a turning point in how we help agencies turn data into clarity. Here are the top moments that defined ForceMetrics in 2025.
A request was submitted to a Real Time Crime Center for assistance in collecting intelligence on a female subject (the mother) who had reportedly taken her children without a valid custody agreement. The request indicated that the subject had left with the children in either her father’s vehicle or with a male associate identified by name.
From the energy at IACP to what’s next for ForceMetrics, this episode is all about where public safety technology is headed, and how we’re building for it.
In her interview, she shares what sparked her interest in dispatch, choosing to follow in her parents' footsteps, and how she often leverages tools like ForceMetrics Velocity™, or "police Google," to help get a positive ID on a person.
For decades, public safety data has lived in silos: CAD here, RMS there, jail and court data somewhere else, and dozens of external systems orbiting on their own timelines. This fragmentation shaped how agencies responded, how fast they could react, and what they could understand about an incident or an investigation. What used to be an inconvenience is now a crisis.
ForceMetrics, today announced that Englewood, Colorado has selected the Velocity™ platform to strengthen data access, improve situational awareness, and support more effective policing for its community.
During the investigation of an armed robbery, detectives learned that a white Chevrolet S-10 had been referenced in connection with the incident. A subsequent inquiry traced the potential suspect to a local motel. Surveillance footage from the property showed the perpetrator being dropped off by an individual driving a white Chevrolet S-10 equipped with all-black wheels. Because of the camera’s distance, the vehicle’s registration could not be seen, and investigators sought to identify the driver as a possible lead to the perpetrator.
The call came in from a local store reporting that a customer had used counterfeit money. When the responding officer arrived, store employees directed them to surveillance footage capturing the entire incident. After reviewing the video, the officer contacted the Real-Time Crime Center (RTCC) and requested assistance in identifying the vehicle involved in the fraudulent transaction.
In our latest interview, Officer Heidi Bradley of the Englewood Police Department shares her journey being a German native working in the U.S. as a police officer.
