The Board

Daily ops and the call,
on one board.

The Board is the house's wall display — the day's run list, command staff, and apparatus assignments on a single screen. Submit the run list and it locks across The Board, the TV display, and the command center as the one source of truth.

When a call comes in, the board takes over on its own: units, location, wind, and incident command in front of every officer — no scramble for a whiteboard and a marker.

OPENFIREHOUSE · The Board ● ON DUTY
Incident Command

One screen. Every resource. Real time.

The Command Board gives the IC a single pane of glass for the whole incident — from the dispatch tones to the after-action.

Response Map LIVE GPS

Live apparatus positions on an Apple-Maps command map — each rig plotted from its real GPS, status-colored, updating as it rolls. The map is on screen the instant a call drops, never an "open in Maps" dead-end.

ICS / NIMS Command Board

The incident command structure — IC, units, and personnel accountability — laid out the way NIMS expects, with wind and NERIS incident typing in front of every officer.

Personnel Accountability

Every firefighter tracked on scene — committed, returning, in quarters. PAR checks across every agency working the incident.

Live Share ZERO INSTALL

Text a tracking link to a mutual-aid department. They watch your apparatus live — no app, no login, any browser.

Scene Photos

Anyone at the scene uploads photos from their phone — timestamped and on the Command Board in seconds.

After-Action Record

The command timeline becomes a clean, defensible after-action draft — an officer reviews and signs it before it's filed.

Commander Cam ON THE ROADMAP

Helmet-cam situational awareness on the Command Board — fireground video with an air-and-status HUD (SCBA air %, heart rate, incident phase). Today it runs as a training simulation; the live in-mask feed is on the active roadmap.

Station Operations

From the whiteboard to the after-action report.

One AI-aware daily hub replaces the legacy RMS, the spreadsheets, and the physical boards.

Member Portal

Assignment card, task tracker, training compliance, and LOSAP / volunteer hours — personalized to every firefighter.

Activity Logger

26+ activity types — equipment checks, fuel logs, visitor logs, training entries — all funneling into the Station Daily Log.

FTO Tracker

NFPA 1001 skill sign-offs, daily observations, and milestone tracking at 30/60/90/180 days.

Knox Key Management

Every Knox Box tracked — location, contents, inspections, access logging — and linked to the pre-plan for the address.

TV / Watch-Desk Display

The wall screen: today's crew, apparatus status, weather, and the live dispatch feed. PIN auth, no login needed.

My Workspace

A multi-role personal task tracker — captain, training officer, hazmat tech — separate hats, one app.

Dispatch & Connectivity

From CAD alert to crew on the rig.

The channels the modern fire service runs on — CAD, NG911, radio, mass recall, station screens — connected to one operational picture.

CAD Integration ACTIVE911

Point your CAD webhook at OpenFirehouse and dispatches land on the Command Board automatically — units auto-set to dispatched, the board raises in ~1–3 seconds. Per-department webhook secrets; generic + I Am Responding ready.

Recall System

Mass dispatch in one tap — SMS, push, and web acknowledgement. Members respond from any device, any browser.

Radio Feed PLUGGABLE

Live radio transcript — talkgroup-coded, time-stamped to the incident, searchable. Pluggable ingest from SDR gateways, Broadcastify Calls, or manual entry.

NG911 Console

Next-gen 911: caller GPS, photos, texts, building data — one-click incident creation from a call.

Kiosk Dispatch

Unattended station-screen mode — the live dispatch feed displayed PIN-free in the apparatus bay or watch room.

NFIRS / NERIS Export

Federal NFIRS 5.0 flat-file export with validation built in, and NERIS-ready for the 2026 transition. One-click reporting.

Compliance & Finance

The expensive stuff, handled.

FLSA, NFPA, ISO, cancer-presumption exposure, AFG and SAFER grants — the levers that used to need a consultant, built in.

Training Compliance

NFPA 1001/1002/1403/1500 and OSHA dashboards. Expiring certifications surfaced 90 days out, per-member gap analysis.

Health & Wellness

Physicals, fit tests, medical restrictions — tied to apparatus assignment so the schedule respects restrictions.

Exposure & Safety CRITICAL

Per-incident exposure log — chemicals, smoke, biological. Cancer-presumption legislation requires this; we make it one click, and the record can't be deleted out from under a claim.

FLSA Overtime

7(k) work periods, threshold calculations, audit-ready exports — the Fair Labor Standards Act overtime dashboard.

ISO Grading Helper

Tracks what ISO asks for — staffing, training, water supply, communications — toward your Public Protection Classification.

Payroll, Budget & Grants

Stipends and per-call pay, fiscal-year budget tracking, and the AFG / SAFER grant lifecycle: applied → awarded → reported.

Inspections, Pre-Plans & Hazmat

Know the building before the rig arrives.

Code enforcement, pre-incident planning, hydrants, SCBA cylinders, and the full ERG 2024 hazmat reference — all linked to the addresses they cover.

Fire Inspections

Annual and business inspection scheduling, code-specific checklists, violation tracking, permits and fees.

Pre-Incident Plans

Per-building tactical plans — construction, hazards, water supply, contacts, photos — pulled onto the Command Board automatically when the address dispatches.

AI Pre-Plan Wizard AI

Draft a pre-plan from a property address — construction analysis with NFPA 220/101 considerations, hazard identification, tactical size-up. An officer reviews before it's saved.

Hydrant Management

Hydrant inventory, flow tests, out-of-service tracking, static and residual pressure — ISO-aligned reporting.

SCBA / Air Management

Cylinder inventory, hydrostatic test dates, fill-station tracking — NFPA 1981 compliance without spreadsheets.

Hazmat Reference

The ERG 2024 library — 3,541 materials, 62 response guides, isolation distances — pairing with the FireHazmat iPad app at the scene.

Intelligence

It already knows the house.

Not a chatbot bolted on — judgment woven into the work, aware of rank, coverage, and the calendar.

Scheduling assistant SHIPS TODAY

A constraint engine that builds duty schedules around availability, rank, and coverage rules.

AI report writer SHIPS TODAY

Drafts after-action summaries, monthly executive reports, and grant narratives from your data — internal documents you review and approve; the legal incident record stays in the officer's words.

Predictive staffing ROADMAP

Flags understaffed shifts before they happen, so the chief can fill them early.

Per-member assistant ROADMAP

Role-aware nudges — "three certs expire next month; want me to find recert classes?"

AI is also woven into pre-plan drafting, incident analysis, mutual-aid recommendations, data import, and report completeness checks. The scheduling assistant and report writer ship today; predictive staffing and the per-member assistant are on the active roadmap.

AI does the drafting; a human always signs off. AI turns your data into first drafts — after-action summaries, reports, pre-plans, schedules — so officers review instead of retype. Nothing becomes an official record until a person approves it. On the incident narrative — the legal record a department can be subpoenaed on — the officer's own words stand.
