Total Evidence Management Solution (TEMS) 

No matter where you are on your evidence management or law enforcement journey, Tracker Products and the Evidence Management Institute (EMI) are here to support you every step of the way. 

Tracker’s SAFE software is designed to meet the ever-changing needs of law enforcement, and help evidence custodians automate all aspects of evidence management from collection through disposition. EMI delivers a new standard in evidence management training, certification, and consulting. 

Together, our 360º Total Evidence Management Solution (TEMS) is designed to create a paradigm shift in the field of evidence management. These multi-dimensional, full-spectrum evidence management solutions – some are free, some have a fee – will help you to run efficient, effective, and sustainable operations for many years to come.

Simply put, our combined mission is to empower the evidence management community. We do that by connecting evidence custodians via Facebook’s Evidence Management Community Forum, and by providing a wealth of information and FREE educational opportunities.

Of course, Tracker’s SAFE software and EMI’s consulting services are what keep the lights on, so we would love to work with you. But for us, we’re on a bigger mission – To transform the culture of evidence management and celebrate the contribution evidence custodians make to the justice system as a whole.

In the two-plus years since we started the Evidence Management Community Forum on FB, it has grown at breakneck speed. Over 800 evidence management and law enforcement personnel have joined the forum and are using it as a safe haven to promote connection and open communication. 

As we followed the conversations, something became very clear: Most of the people on the forum had very limited resources. By resources, we certainly mean financial, but they also lacked access to information and education. Why? A) Because they couldn’t afford them and B) They didn’t know where to find them for free. 

That was a wake-up call for us. We needed to do more, and we needed to do it for free. 

Armed with the means, motivation, and opportunity we got busy creating everything from webinars to self-assessment tools, and online and in-person training. And, just like the FB community forum… the content blew up. 

Tracker’s webinars have been viewed over 1,600 times. EMI’s “The Evidence Show,” has been watched 1,500 times. Tracker’s blogs have been read nearly 20,000 times! And, EMI’s FREE Online Evidence Management Training has been viewed nearly 4000 times!

Conclusion

We wholeheartedly believe that what you do in the world of evidence management is crucial to preserving the integrity of evidence. To us, you are the unsung heroes in the justice system. Unfortunately, many times the accomplishments and the needs of evidence management personnel go unseen, unheard, and unacknowledged, as the evidence management community quietly works away behind locked doors in the dark underbelly of police departments.

We want to help you change that.
