Government

A phone system a public body can stand behind.

For cities, counties, school districts, utilities and state agencies: compliance built in, records kept, support answered by US citizens, from a veteran-owned vendor.

Requirements, met

What a public-sector phone system has to get right

Residents, auditors and the press all call the same number. The system has to satisfy each of them.

Emergency calling

Kari's Law and RAY BAUM's Act, per desk

Direct 911 dialing with no prefix, on-site notification to security or the front desk, and a dispatchable location for every phone, including the one in the basement records room. We maintain the address registrations as you move phones.

Public records

Retention and holds built for records requests

Recordings, voicemail and text messages are retained on schedules you set by department, exportable with their metadata, and can be placed on legal hold in one step when a request or litigation arrives.

Law enforcement

CJIS-aware handling

Encrypted transport and storage, US-citizen staff, background-checked support engineers, and an audit log of every administrative action. Designed for dispatch, records and investigations units that handle criminal-justice information.

Controls

FedRAMP-aligned, with a StateRAMP path

Controls mapped to NIST SP 800-53 moderate, documented and ready for your security questionnaire. We are pursuing StateRAMP authorization and share our progress and artifacts with customers.

People

Support by US citizens, on US soil

Every engineer who can see your system is a United States citizen working from the United States. No offshore tiers, no hand-offs.

Procurement

Veteran-owned, cooperative-friendly

Veteran-owned status that counts toward your set-aside goals, pricing structured for cooperative purchasing vehicles, and documentation ready for sole-source justifications where your rules allow.

Public works and emergencies

When the pipe breaks at 2 a.m.

After-hours routing and mass notification for the departments that never close.

On-call rotation

The right crew, automatically

After-hours calls to public works, water or facilities ring the on-call rotation, escalate when unanswered and log who was reached.

Emergency notification

One message, every channel

Send a voice call and a text to residents, staff or a single neighborhood from one screen, with delivery reports for the record.

Dispatch lines

Recorded, prioritized, never busy

Non-emergency dispatch lines with priority queueing, instant recording and a wallboard for the shift supervisor.

Continuity

Phones that survive the building

If a facility loses power or network, calls route to mobiles and other sites without anyone touching a setting.

Sample call flow

A city hall main line

Built from the flows we see most often. Yours is rebuilt by an engineer, then approved by you before cutover.
