for builders
Builders don't know how to keep track of their tools.
Thieves have figured this out. Builders are focused on their trade. They don't know how to keep track of their tools, they've never learned how, and they are convinced that police are too busy and don't have the time to help them out when their jobsites and work trucks get hit. So why should they even bother? This mentality only feeds the problem.
for police officers
Police don't have the information they need to act on.
Police don't have no way to engage builders, to establish a working relationship with them, to empower them to collect the information builders they need to help police out. Imagine approaching builders on a jobsite and saying, "Hey, can I show you a really easy way to keep track of your tools so if anything goes missing, we can do more to help you out?" We've made that a reality.
For safer communities
Helping educate builders builds safer communities.
There are over 700,000 full-time police officers in the US. Giving them access to a database to track recovered stolen goods back to their rightful owners is the easy part. Convincing builders that police are on their team, they have their back, and that together, progress can be made is the real challenge at hand.
