Problem
Public‑safety agencies lack a systematic way to record, coordinate, and demonstrate the impact of place‑based crime prevention activities, so this work remains invisible to budget officials and the community.
Solution
Simsi offers a SaaS platform that turns environmental risk analysis into actionable, trackable tasks tied to specific locations. Using Risk Terrain Modeling (RTM) as its analytic engine, the system identifies high‑risk places and integrates those insights into ActionHub, a collaborative workspace where law‑enforcement, city departments, and community partners assign, monitor, and document interventions such as lighting upgrades, code enforcement, or outreach. Every task is linked to a place, owner, due date, and evidence of outcome, creating a permanent record that can be visualized and reported. The platform provides mobile access for field teams, real‑time status updates, and built‑in reporting tools that translate prevention work into measurable cost‑savings and performance metrics for leadership and the public.
Target Audience
Primary customers are municipal police departments, city agencies, and community‑based organizations that run place‑based prevention programs and need a unified system to manage and prove their work.
