This presentation covers how TargetSolutions can help fire departments track training and compliance tasks with the Activities Builder application.

1. The Top 10 Reports for Fire
Department Tracking
HOW FIRE DEPARTMENTS CAN USE ACTIVITIES BUILDER TO
TRACK FIRE DEPARTMENT TRAINING & COMPLIANCE TASKS

2. EMS Skill Sheets
EMS requirements vary by state, but TargetSolutions enables organizations
everywhere to accurately document EMS proficiencies like airway emergencies,
AED, CPR, musculoskeletal injury, and much more.
“(TargetSolutions) satisfies minimum mandatory training
requirements in certain subjects, provides all the EMS continuing
education units that you would need, and allows you to add your
own personal content and distribute it with the push of a button.”
JEREMY VERDERBER | Captain | City of Corona Fire Dept. (Calif.)

3. Daily Training
TargetSolutions features a multitude of pre-built tracking forms for electronic
documentation of all drill-yard training activities. Keeping accurate records of this
information helps departments meet annual ISO training hours and other
mandatory firefighter training requirements.
“TargetSolutions really allowed us to get everyone on the same
sheet of music. With Custom Activities, we were able to track
company training, safety drills, standard-operating procedures,
dissemination of vehicle ERGs, and many other activities.”
KRISTIAN M. JOHANSON | Captain | Hinesville Fire Dept. (Ga.)

4. “With TargetSolutions you can track inventory of controlled
substances, expiration dates, and serial numbers. For EMS
chiefs, it is important to maintain accurate numbers of narcotic
inventory to avoid legalities.”
MISTY PRATT | Product Manager | TargetSolutions
Narcotics Log
Departments use TargetSolutions’ pre-built narcotics log to monitor inventory of
controlled substances. Tracking this information ensures state and local EMS
guidelines are met, along with DEA regulations.

5. Vehicle Pre-Trip Inspection
Vehicle inspection forms track whether on-site emergency vehicles meet
operational requirements to be on the road. It is important to have proper
documentation and TargetSolutions allows organizations to track inspections
electronically.
“In case of accidents, TargetSolutions allows departments to
maintain accurate records of both pre- and post-trip inspections on
all emergency vehicles. It is important to have proper
documentation on an emergency vehicle’s condition to ensure it
meets safety requirements before taking the road.”
KEGAN KONRADY | Account Manager | TargetSolutions

6. SCBA Inspection
In the past, SCBA checkouts required paper documentation that could easily be
misplaced or destroyed. With TargetSolutions’ Activities Builder, departments are
able to keep accurate electronic records on all SCBA equipment parts, seals, and
gauges.
“TargetSolutions offers a variety of custom activities for SCBA
inspections and checkouts. Whether a department tracks daily or
weekly, we have options to meet department needs.”
MISTY PRATT | Product Manager | TargetSolutions

7. Specialty Training
TargetSolutions’ features pre-built custom activities for tracking Hazardous
Materials and USAR training. These activities help departments meet qualifications
and annual requirements while preparing crews for disasters and emergencies.
“No matter what kind of training we do, there is now 100 percent
accountability to record it; so if our crews do it, we can track it and
document it.”
KEVIN WESLEY | Training Captain | Alachua County Fire Rescue (Fla.)

8. Pre-Training
With TargetSolutions you can deliver “pre-training” covering essential information
before a live-training exercise. By utilizing Activities Builder, departments can
provide employees with pertinent study material prior to live-drill training. This
preparation can help produce more effective training sessions.
“We use TargetSolutions to allow our crews to review didactic
course information before we do hands-on training. When they
arrive at training, they know all the background information and we
can jump right in.”
BRIAN CARLSON | Assistant Chief | Burnsville Fire Dept. (Minn.)

9. Post-Incident Evaluations
TargetSolutions helps departments use real-life experiences in training. One of
TargetSolutions’ pre-built activities, “After Action Review (AAR),” allows members to
post-incident analysis whether it is a recent emergency or live-training session. This
helps prepare for future incidents by leveraging previous experiences.
“We recently responded to a house fire that had a lot of different outcomes
as far as lessons learned for our staff. We were able to take pictures and
information from that incident and turn it into a custom activity course by
importing a PowerPoint slideshow onto TargetSolutions.”
SHAWN MATHESON | Division Chief | Mississauga Fire & Emergency Services (Ontario, Canada)

10. Licenses
Custom activities can be created to ensure your organization is remaining
compliant with all licenses. Whether organizations need to track driver’s license
expiration dates, or maintain Medical responders’ EMS certifications,
TargetSolutions offers activities to track progress, while also implementing
notifications to ensure deadlines are met.
“Before TargetSolutions, we had no checks and balances; we had
no alerts. With 347 employees, no one training officer has the
ability to check EMT certifications, for example. There is just no
better system for that without a tool like TargetSolutions.”
DAN COLLINS | Fire Captain | Cal Fire San Diego (Calif.)

11. Health & Wellness
If your organization is looking to promote a healthy lifestyle, TargetSolutions
features pre-built electronic activities for tracking weight-loss programs and
managing weekly health challenges.
“TargetSolutions’ health and wellness activities have been
implemented to promote a healthier, well-balanced lifestyle for
employees.”
JEN JONES | Strategic Risk Account Manager | TargetSolutions
