Do You Know Where Your Evidence Is?

FileOnQ’s evidence management solution, EvidenceOnQ, empowers agencies to efficiently manage property and evidence throughout its entire lifecycle. Agencies see an immediate return on investment when they implement EvidenceOnQ. It reduces handwritten documentation, eliminates repetitive work effort, minimizes paper, and automates the chain of custody.

Effective evidence management is not just collecting, storing, and tracking items. It includes an airtight chain of custody, complete accountability, meeting accreditation standards, and vital reporting capabilities. Having a user-configurable system that is customized to the unique needs of each agency extends time savings and efficiency to the entire department.

Are You Feeling Handcuffed and Overwhelmed by Your Evidence Management System?

Keeping up with the daily barrage of property and evidence can be daunting and is often intensified by poor evidence management software. An inadequate system can cause redundant processes, excessive paper documentation, inaccurate or manipulated data, lost evidence, and compromised chain of custody. The limitations of your evidence system may be preventing your staff from achieving excellence in this very important area of your department.

Does Your Evidence System Meet the Needs of Modern Policing?

Law enforcement processes continue to evolve with new technology. The mantra of “this is how we have always done it” is no longer valid or sustainable. Paper documentation is becoming a thing of the past, with new technology and automation around every corner. Agencies that maintain antiquated processes often find themselves in the headlines. Do you have confidence that your evidence system is reducing your agency’s liability and risk?

Does Your Evidence System Empower You to Adequately Serve?

Evidence management also includes many kinds of service: providing discovery to the prosecutor, assisting the investigator, answering questions from the public, and returning items to the legal owner. The limited functionality of an evidence system can often prevent you from efficiently providing this service. It is vital to have a robust, flexible software that will enable you to be proactive, not reactive, when performing these important duties. You should not have to change your processes due to a deficient evidence system; it should be flexible to meet your needs. Is your evidence system a hindrance or help?

Patrol Officers & Investigators

PATROL OFFICERS spend less time filling out bags and tags and more time available for calls. Customized, intuitive entry screens provide consistency, with required fields ensuring vital information is captured. INVESTIGATORS can easily organize the evidence in the case for presentation to the prosecutor.

Evidence Staff

EVIDENCE STAFF are no longer required to do data entry and time-consuming computer documentation. Barcode technology makes transactions fast, automated, and paperless. The automated dispo process assigns a retention date and sends out automated requests for review. Purge projects are efficient and streamlined, freeing up valuable storage space for incoming evidence and returning items to their owner. Customized reports easily show accurate productivity, inventory, and statistics.

Administration

ADMINISTRATION feels confident their agency is utilizing best practices for evidence management and meets accreditation standards. The integrity of their evidence is protected with an unalterable chain of custody, and random percentage audits ensure policies and procedures are being followed.

Prosecutors

PROSECUTORS can access evidence information as needed instead of calling to request evidence reports and chain of custody. They can submit requests or authorizations electronically, such as requesting lab analysis or approving the return of the item to the owner.

VICTIMS can enter an itemized list of stolen property directly into Foundrop, saving the officer a follow-up visit and supplemental report. The public can report their own lost property as well as property that may have been found.

IT STAFF appreciate the ease of installation and minimal support required, with no need to add additional technical staff to maintain the system.

Benefits and Features

100% User-configurable Screen

We put YOU in the driver’s seat! You have complete control of your profile screen design. You determine the location of the fields as well as the name and field parameters. Your agency can also determine the format of reports, the barcode label design, location barcodes, and workflow.

Browser-Based Access

Our solutions are browser based and easily accessed from any computer on your network. This provides convenient access to enter evidence, print barcodes and reports, submit requests, and search for information.

Inventories and Audits

Our solution provides fast and accurate inventories using barcode technology. A detailed inventory report shows items accounted for, missing, and in the wrong location. Random percentage audit reports comply with accreditation standards.

Customizable Reports

The versatile reporting capabilities are a supervisor’s dream come true. Our solution offers unlimited, real-time reporting. Queries are easily built and saved without IT assistance. Customized reports provide statistics, inventory details, and accreditation compliance. Custom reports provide necessary information in the format required.

Single Screen Convenience

Our solution is designed to streamline data entry and all aspects of evidence management. All essential transactions such as searching, scanning barcodes, transferring items, and obtaining signatures are made from one screen.

Barcode Technology

Barcode technology is faster and more accurate than any other form of tracking. Using a barcode will dramatically decrease the time it takes to retrieve a record from the database and document the transfer of that item to another location or status.

User-Group Dashboards

Dashboard widgets for each user group provide vital information at a glance. Officers may see a link to their last 10 cases and packaging instructions, while evidence staff may see the number of items in intake, evidence pending destruction, or the type of evidence being stored.

RMS and Digital Evidence Integration

You can have the best of both worlds. RMS evidence modules notoriously lack functionality and flexibility, therefore we have integrated with many CAD/RMS companies to create seamless data sharing. Our EvidenceOnQ and DigitalOnQ systems are integrated, keeping all types of evidence tightly connected in a cohesive platform.

Automated Notifications

Our workflow notification automates tasks that are usually performed manually. Specific criteria are built into “triggers” that will take an action, such as an automated email to an officer if an item needs correction or evidence has been checked out too long. Triggers can also stop a prohibited action, such as releasing drugs to an owner or destroying search warrant items without a court order.

Modern Search Capabilities

A wide range of search tools allows users to find information quickly and easily. Every field and combination of fields on the profile screen is searchable. Queries can be made using known, unknown, and partial information.

Unalterable Chain of Custody

Maintaining a solid chain of custody is one of the most important requirements in evidence management. EvidenceOnQ makes the chain of custody automated and unalterable. A customized chain of custody report makes trial preparation accurate, and efficient.

Mobile PDA Options

Our mobile solution provides the convenience of performing tasks in remote locations where a computer may not be available. Working in a disconnected environment, MobileOnQ offers four functionality choices: transfer items, transfer boxes, perform inventories, and transfer items with a signature.

Loved by end-users, command staff, and IT

“EvidenceOnQ has solved a lot of our problems. Before we started using it, we had property records that were on paper. To find out where it came from, we had to go through 2 different electronic systems. EvidenceOnQ has condensed the effort we have to put into locating or manage items.”
Lisa D.
Property & Evidence Technician / Fife Police Department
“The ability to get stats right away is great. My department likes numbers, like how many guns came in last month. I used to have to count them manually—now I have a query that does it immediately. It makes things possible that weren’t before. “
Bob L.
Sr. Property & Evidence Supervisor / San Diego Police Department
“I have never seen such a clean evidence system. From the day we first saw it, it was like the heaven’s opened and I could hear the angels singing ‘Hallelujah!'”
