WHY REDALERT KIOSK

The End of the Paper Sign-In Sheet

Paper attendance sheets get lost, filled out late, and gamed. The RedAlert Kiosk eliminates every one of those problems – automatically capturing accurate, verified attendance records for every event, every shift, and every call.

1. No More Paper Sign-In Sheets

Paper sign-in sheets get lost, get filled out late, and let members sign in for people who weren’t there. The RedAlert Kiosk eliminates all of that. Firefighters sign in with a fingerprint, RFID card, or key fob after the call or before the event, and every check-in is timestamped, tied to their record, and synced to RedAlert Desktop automatically.

2. Members Log Their Own Riding Assignment on the Spot

Instead of an officer recording who did what after the fact, members self-tag their role and assignment at the kiosk when they check in after the call – driver, standby, officer, rehab, and so on. It saves administrative time, improves accuracy, and means your compliance records reflect what actually happened at the call.

3. Calls, Drills, Meetings, and Duty Hours – All in One Place

The Kiosk tracks attendance automatically for fire calls, drills, training sessions, meetings, and duty crew shifts – no separate sheets, no manual logging after the fact. Every check-in feeds directly into LOSAP calculations, grant documentation, and compliance reports without anyone touching a spreadsheet.

4. Run Officer Elections Right from the Kiosk

The Kiosk has an election module add on that lets departments run secure, paperless officer elections directly on the device. Control who can vote, restrict voting to specific locations or companies, allow write-in candidates, and audit the results at the end – all without paper ballots or manual tallies.

GIS Mapping and Firefighting: Enhancing Situational Awareness

At its core, GIS mapping is a technology that allows users to visualize, analyze, and interpret spatial data. By layering data like building structures, water sources, hydrants, roads, and more, GIS creates a comprehensive map of an area, making it easier to understand the environment in real-time.

Built for the Way Volunteer Departments Actually Operate

The RedAlert Kiosk was designed around the realities of volunteer fire service — where paper is the norm, time is short, and attendance accuracy directly affects funding, compliance, and member benefits.

Verified Attendance, Every Time

Because every check-in is tied to a biometric or credential, there’s no more buddy signing – a member can only sign themselves in. That means your attendance records are accurate, defensible, and audit-ready without any extra work from your officers.

Direct LOSAP/Pay-per-call and Compliance Integration

Every Kiosk check-in flows automatically into RedAlert Desktop, feeding LOSAP point calculations, pay per call reports, stipend reports, grant reports, and compliance documentation with verified data instead of self-reported hours. No spreadsheets, no reconciling paper sheets at the end of the month.

One Device, Every Attendance Scenario Covered.

Call attendance, meetings, trainings, drills, special events, duty crew shifts, and department elections — the RedAlert Kiosk handles all of it from a single device.

From the fire scene to the drill floor - attendance handled.

The moment a firefighter arrives at a drill, training, or meeting, they check in at the Kiosk and their attendance is recorded instantly. Same process with a fire call, but they sign in after the call is over. No sign-in sheets, no coming back to the station to sign a paper, and no officers manually logging who showed up.

 

What Gets Tracked Automatically

  • Fire call response attendance Drills, trainings, and meetings
  • Timestamped check-in and check-out

Know exactly who is in before the call drops.

Members sign up for duty shifts in advance and punch in at the Kiosk when their shift starts. Officers and command can see who is actually on duty at any moment from the bulletin board display, the desktop, or the Responder App, so there’s no guessing when a call comes in.

 

Duty Crew Features:

  • Shift sign-up via Kiosk, Responder App, or Desktop Punch in and punch out with timestamp verification
  • Live duty crew display on bulletin board and mobile

Secure officer elections. No paper ballots require.
