Case Study: Horry County Police Department improves real-time event coordination with D4H

How Horry County Police Department Utilizes D4H for Preplanned Events

Horry County Police Department, a full-service law enforcement agency in South Carolina, faced a significant challenge in coordinating resources and maintaining situational awareness during large-scale preplanned events like the Myrtle Beach Bike Week rallies. They struggled with real-time coordination, tracking available resources, and managing disparate information streams from the field. To address this, they implemented the D4H Incident Management software from vendor D4H.

The solution provided by D4H gave the department a centralized, real-time platform for incident coordination and situational awareness. A key benefit was the customizable form builder, which allowed them to easily create and edit digital assignment sheets for officer posts. The D4H mobile app also proved extremely convenient, enabling a commander to coordinate resources directly from his device without a fixed command post. This implementation provided the department with a single source of truth, streamlining coordination and improving their overall response effectiveness.
