It’s hard enough standing in the ruins of someone’s home or business after it’s been devastated by fire, but when your job is to climb through the rubble and figure out how it happened, you want the best means to do it as efficiently and safely as possible.
Like many public servants in the field, fire investigators need rugged equipment, and fast and easy data access and collection are critical to the mission. MobileDemand offers ultra-mobile, rugged, wireless-enabled tablet PCs, that support customized applications and field investigation forms and enable users to take advantage of easy input and one-hand operation.
MobileDemand’s xTablets offer an ideal solution for firefighters, fire inspectors and fire investigators.

MobileDemand Fire Department Clients
Fire Departments use the rugged computing power of MobileDemand's state-of-the-art xTablet with GPS tracking to make sure no firefighter is left behind. Firefighters wear a simple locator and RF technology, while the Rugged Tablet PC tracks the "ride list" and creates a pin-point map of each firefighter's location. How many lives will this save?
MobileDemand Fire Inspection Clients
Much like postal workers, fire inspectors don't usually get to choose the weather, climate or conditions during the inspection. As a preventative tool, the xTablet touch screen and integrated numeric keypad make it easy for fire inspectors to document results. Data captured in the field can be wirelessly uploaded to the master database in real-time or uploaded through a docking station when fire inspectors return to the office. It's that simple.
