TROY, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 20, 2000

New World Systems, a leader in public sector software solutions, appeared on New Haven, Connecticut's News Talk 960 WELI "Police on Patrol" show November 8, 2000. "Trends in Technology for Law Enforcement" was the topic for the evening. New World's Vice President of Customer Service and Support Mark Dvorak, and New World's customers Rochester/Olmsted County, MN, and Waterbury, CT, along with IBM were guests on the show.

"New World provides public safety software that improves officer and community safety, increases productivity and streamlines daily processes," said Mark Dvorak. "This opportunity allowed us to inform other public safety agencies about the benefits of automating their departments with a New World solution."

Officer Charlie Sampson and Lieutenant Gary Stango from the Waterbury, CT Police Department discussed how New World's easy to use, integrated software improved efficiency and safety. As an example, before an officer arrives at a scene or approaches a vehicle, he or she can access prior records information on that vehicle or location, and be warned of potentially dangerous circumstances. As a result, officers control situations better and with a greater degree of safety.

Marshall Miller, Information Systems Manager and the Project Manager for the Olmsted County/Rochester implementation, along with Captain James Pittenger talked about the advantages of information sharing throughout New World's applications. The City of Rochester/Olmsted County Public Safety Agency licensed Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD), Records, Corrections Management, Field Reporting and Civil Process. Once information is entered into one of the applications, it may be accessed from any of the modules -- reducing redundant data entry, lowering agency costs and improving communication.

"The software system helps us protect our citizens and officers better," said Miller. "Access to critical data in local, state and federal databases, allows us to check on wants/warrants, hazard alerts on persons and stolen vehicles from our units. Also, the ability to write reports in the units increases the time officers spend in the field where they belong."

A growing trend in technology for law enforcement is the mobile computing and field reporting applications. More and more officers have laptops in the units that provide them with real-time access to vital information, and the ability to write reports immediately after the incident to ensure accuracy.
