Hear what people are saying about our first responder products.

"I use the IMS Alliance boards when I teach action planning for emergency incidents. Since they are very well laid out students can easily use them and learn the skill of emergency incident action planning very quickly. Keep up the good work in developing incident management tools for the fire service."

- Stewart Rose, Insource Training & Consulting, Retired Seattle Deputy Fire Chief

"In late 2006, we undertook the project of improving the overall incident management capabilities of emergency responders in Grant County. The wildland fire season was extremely busy in Grant County and we identified several shortcomings in procedures, training and equipment which needed to be corrected. The IMS Alliance products were selected as best meeting the needs of our responders. Our purchases included a PAS V ID system with four barcode scanners, and IMS board kits with incident command vests for 10 fire agencies. IMS has met all our expectations as well as providing training on the proper use of teh PAS V system."

"I would like to thank you for the huge amount of time and effort that you have put into designing and ordering the IMS status boards and vests. I have heard a number of chiefs comments on the quality of the product that you came up with.

I look forward to placing the vests and status boards into operation in our department. You should take pride in the fact that Incident Management and firefighter safety in our county will be improved as a result of your diligence and commitment.

From all of the fire chiefs in Pierce County, thank you for a job well done!"

- Dan Packer, President, Pierce County Fire Chiefs Assoc., WA

"As the Program Manager for the Washington Task Force 1, one of the 28 Federal US&R teams, personnel accountability is a mandatory requirement and essential for the overall safety of the task force. We decided to use the Passport Accountability System™ developed by IMS Alliance to help our managers track 70 people and four dogs spread out among 5 separate functional groups. The accountability boards are a simple extension of the passport accountability system in common use throughout the fire service in the Pacific Northwest.

I personally use the accountability boards when I teach river rescue classes to track my students during field training days to maximize safety by knowing at all times where students are and what they are doing."

- Tom Miner, Program Manager WATF-1

"As a company officer on our department assigned Technical Rescue rig I have had the opportunity to appreciate the IMS Alliance IMS board and vest system on actual Technical Rescue incidents.

As an instructor of various Technical Rescue disciplines I constantly stress the importance of an organized approach to Technical Rescue IMS to my students. In my Technical Rescue experience that spans over 15 years, I have not found a more user friendly system. The checklist assures that all important items are covered, and the vests assist in visual identification of players."

- Pat Lillie, Fire Lieutenant, Dept. Emergency Management Technical Rescue Instructor, Urban Search & Rescue Team Manager

"Thank you for the boards that I ordered from you for the different special operations classes that we provide. The ease for our students to reach in and pull out a board that matches the present incident that they are up against or even running multiple disciplines at one time, makes these boards so much easier and smarter then any other.

We have adapted the boards to both Law Enforcement, Fire, Military, Industry and even volunteer SAR groups. In many cases running our incidents with the multiple groups listed above all in one exercise.

The size-up and assessment flow chart on the back of each board seams to expedite the flow of operations for even those unfamiliar to IMS strategies. The biggest plus is that the boards can be fabricated to meet your current nomenclature and special needs.

So thank you for a fine job of putting these boards together in addition to giving me one more great product to use and offer to my customers.

Sincerely Yours In Life Safety"

- Thomas Markus, Northwest Field Representative, Lee & Associates Rescue Equipment Inc. & IEC Training

"I have carefully reviewed and utilized your company's command boards and vests on drills and actual emergency incidents and I am very impressed! Your products are excellent and it is very obvious that actual users design the equipment. I appreciate your technical knowledge and support and concur with your recommendations for the products' implementation into our system. I have forwarded your products with my endorsement to several technical rescue and HAZMAT teams, safety committees and Chief organizations.

Thank you for contributing to a safer workplace for the Fire Service Industry."

- Brian Schaeffer, Deputy Chief, Yakima Fire Dept.
