Summary:

The Stafford Township Police Department was managing millions of dollars of assets using spreadsheets and an outdated CAD module.  Assets, gear and inventory included patrol cars, radios, firearms, body armor, tactical gear and ammunition. After a surprise audit exposed gaps (e.g. inability to produce real-time inventory or historical logs), leadership adopted NovoGov to overhaul their asset and inventory workflows. With the new system they gained full visibility and accountability over every officer-issued item, vehicle component, and consumables.  It also enabled officers to do digital vehicle inspections that automatically trigger the creation of work orders if maintenance issues were noted. NovoGov centralized procurement, vendor records, pricing and item histories which made onboarding of new officers or temporary staff much smoother. The department now knows what’s in every car, what every officer has, when equipment expires, and are confident they’re audit-ready and professional.
