Case Study: Quincy Police Department improves officer safety and evidence capture with Coreforce BodyWorn cameras

Quincy Police Department plans $60,000 annual camera lease with Coreforce

The Quincy Police Department faced the challenge of selecting a body camera system that could meet stringent state laws, including long battery life for 12-hour shifts, and remain securely pointed in the right direction during physical activity. They chose the BodyWorn camera system from vendor Coreforce to address these needs.

Coreforce implemented a solution using a smartphone-based camera system worn in a zippered uniform pouch, ensuring it stays pointed correctly. The system features automatic activation via GPS, gunshot detection, an "officer down" alert, and wireless uploading. The measurable impact was a proposed five-year lease for up to 73 body cameras and 50 car cameras at a cost of $60,000 per year, providing the department with a compliant and feature-rich system.
