Since it’s pretty commonplace these days to see TV shows about other TV shows (think “Talking Dead,” or “Watch What Happens Live”), we figured we’d do the same kind of thing.
So welcome to the “InterPort Police Webinar After-Show” Show! It’s a brief recap of our recent webinar with Jay Grant, Secretary General and Chief Executive of InterPort Police.
First, let’s introduce the star: InterPortPolice. They’re a 45-year old, global law enforcement association operating in 225 jurisdictions, with officers at airports and seaports all over the world.
During the webinar, Jay talked about the importance of having a collaboration platform in his business after 9/11 intelligence failures forced agencies to rethink inter-agency communications. Jay explained:
Criminals don’t have borders, but we do. We’ve looked at responsible ways of interacting, collaborating, and sharing with our partners around the world.
But, he admitted, finding a solution wasn’t easy. The agency hosted four other portals and platforms to facilitate inter-agency collaboration, but none were successful…until tibbr.
The tibbr platform was our fifth platform, and we’re pretty happy with it.
Why? Jay said tibbr gave his people — 90% of whom work in the field 90% of their day — the right information at the right time. Plus, it was secure, private, and could be restricted by group, role, geography, etc.
Our agents can tap into the collective intelligence. It is crucial that our agents be able to collaborate within their units, outside their jurisdictions, and even across continents.
And finally, he talked about the importance of “knowledge retention.”
Now we can retain valuable knowledge when our agents move on to special assignments.
