Case Study: Goodyear Fire Department achieves streamlined training, compliance, and exposure tracking with Vector Solutions' Vector LMS

How Goodyear Fire Dept. Tracks Training, Procedures, & Exposures

Goodyear Fire Department, serving a rapidly growing Arizona community and preparing to add about 20% more personnel on top of its roughly 110 sworn firefighters and non‑sworn staff, faced a major training and compliance burden. Prior tracking with notepads, spreadsheets, and local files was inadequate, so the department adopted Vector Solutions’ Vector LMS (formerly TargetSolutions) to centralize training, certifications, SOPs, and exposure documentation.

Vector Solutions implemented its Vector LMS Enterprise account, My Credentials, automatic notifications, eSignature policy read receipts, a self‑assignable Exposure Reporting Form, and a mix of catalog and in‑house courses to standardize training across agencies. The platform let crews complete training anytime (reducing the need to pull personnel off trucks), forced completion of PPE inspections via quarterly credential requirements, enabled regional SOP sharing, and produced verifiable exposure records—outcomes that improved compliance, accountability, and scalability as Goodyear and even the city and police adopted Vector Solutions.
