Problem
False alarms waste taxpayer dollars and law enforcement
time. False alarms incidents result in huge uncompensated costs to
communities and create distractions from the core public safety mission of
law enforcement. The consequence: false alarms divert first responder
personnel from real emergencies and encourage complacency when answering
calls – A problem that can cost lives.
Solution
Public Safety and Alarm Industry Association
professionals agree that the key to a successful false alarm reduction
program is having an alarm ordinance modeled after the "model ordinance".
The National Burglar & Fire Alarm Association (
NBFAA
) and the False Alarm Reduction Association (
FARA ) have been working with cities, counties and metropolitan
jurisdictions using their "Model Burglar and Fire Alarm Ordinance" toward the
implementation of successful false alarm reduction programs. FARS is a
false alarm billing, tracking management solution designed to help you
implement your program.

A proven solution:
Purvis Gray Technology Group's
false alarm software package in one county and city helped decrease
false alarms by 44.6% in the first 12 months with a combined decrease in
the 2nd year of 56%. Read
an article printed the national magazine "Sheriff" published by the
National Sheriff's Association in the July / August 2003 volume 55
number 4 by Sheriff Steven Oelrich of Alachua
County entitled "False
Alarm Reduction Unit Nets Big Savings, Better Safety for Citizens".

experience with cities, counties, and other governmental agencies.
Purvis Gray understands the increasing scrutiny imposed on cities,
counties and metropolitan jurisdictions, with regards to funding,
auditing, and general accounting practices. Other false alarm software
packages
are not based on sound accounting principals, and therefore lack critical
features such as audit trails and transactional billing.
