Command the response.
Save more lives.
GovResponse is a real-time, browser-based emergency operations center. Run an incident end to end — tactical map, resources, needs, shelters, evacuations — with ICS forms, California SEMS, after-action reporting, and FEMA cost recovery built in. Any device. Online or offline.
Legacy tools weren't built for this
Most emergency management teams are coordinating multi-agency disasters with software designed for a different era — or no software at all. The result is preventable chaos at the worst possible moment.
Disconnected tools
Incident commanders are juggling radio calls, spreadsheets, whiteboards, and five different software systems — none of which talk to each other.
Field teams flying blind
Field operators get assignments at briefing and then operate in isolation. The EOC doesn’t know what’s actually happening until someone calls it in.
Minutes cost lives
A need reported via radio, written down, entered into a system, and then assigned to a resource can take 20+ minutes. That gap is where people die.
After-action is a nightmare
Reconstructing what happened, when, and who was where requires digging through radio logs, paper forms, and faded whiteboards. Lessons don’t get learned.
Needs relayed by radio, written down, re-keyed, then assigned — while the EOC and the field work from different pictures.
Whiteboards, spreadsheets, and ICS forms filled out by hand — hard to share live and harder to reconstruct later.
Cal OES after-action reports and FEMA cost-recovery packets stitched together by hand from logs that were never built for it.
One platform. Command and field, together.
GovResponse is a single web application — no native app to install, no second system to sync. The command view and the field run on the same real-time data. What the EOC sees, the field gets. What the field reports, the EOC acts on — instantly.
Command-room visibility across the whole incident
A live operations picture for incident command. Track every resource, need, shelter, supply, evacuation zone, and damage assessment on an interactive Mapbox tactical map — all updating in real time.
- ▸Tactical map with resources, needs, shelters, evac zones & overlays
- ▸Priority needs queue with assignment and progress tracking
- ▸Resource deployment, status, and ICS-221 demobilization
- ▸Shelter occupancy, supplies, and door-to-door evacuation checks
- ▸Built-in ICS forms — 201, 202, 203, 214, 209
- ▸Full audit trail, after-action report, and archive export
The same platform, in your hand.
The field doesn't run a different app — it runs the same web platform on any phone or tablet. Report needs, update status, check addresses, and read the map from the scene. And when the signal drops, it keeps working: changes queue locally and sync the moment you're back online.
- ▸Report needs with location, urgency, and population
- ▸Update resource and unit status from the scene
- ▸Door-to-door evacuation address checks
- ▸Live tactical map and real-time chat with command
- ▸Installs to the home screen as a PWA — no app store
- ▸Offline-first — edits queue locally and sync on reconnect
Built for real incident conditions
Every feature in GovResponse was designed with one constraint in mind: it has to work when the stakes are highest and conditions are worst.
Live Tactical Map
A Mapbox operations map with resources, needs, shelters, evacuation zones, weather, and damage — updating in real time across every connected user.
Resources & Needs
Deploy and track units by category and status, log operational needs with urgency and population, and assign resources with live progress tracking.
Shelters & Mass Care
Register shelters with capacity, intake and discharge, per-shelter supplies, and ADA, pet, and medical flags — with occupancy on the map.
Evacuation Management
Manage evacuation zones with status from advisory to order to repopulation, plus door-to-door address checks for the field — pending, clear, occupied, no access.
Built-in ICS Forms
Generate print-ready ICS 201, 202, 203, 214, and 209 — auto-populated from live incident data and the activity log. Save to PDF in a click.
California SEMS
Elect NIMS or NIMS + SEMS. Map ICS sections to SEMS EOC functions and work the state cost-recovery certification checklist by organizational level.
After-Action Reports
The six narrative sections required by CCR Title 19 §2450, an operational rollup, and a 90-day Cal OES deadline tracker — exportable for the record.
FEMA Cost Recovery
The 2025 FEMA equipment rate codebook is built in. Auto-calculate cost from deployment to release, capture demob sign-offs, and roll it up for reimbursement.
Damage Assessment
Log FEMA preliminary damage assessments by severity, category, and ownership with cost estimates, mapped and rolled up into the ICS 209.
Live Weather (NWS)
Active National Weather Service alerts and forecast for the incident location, color-coded by severity on the map and refreshed automatically.
GIS & Map Overlays
Draw hazards, closures, and zones with polygon, line, and point tools that persist across operational periods — and import reference GeoJSON or KML layers.
Offline-First
A progressive web app that keeps working without signal. Edits queue locally and replay on reconnect — no native install, no app store, any device.
Every disaster type.
One platform.
GovResponse is incident-agnostic. Whether you're managing a Cat 4 hurricane or a localized chemical spill, the platform adapts to your ICS and SEMS structure and the specific demands of the incident.
View all use cases →Hurricane Response
Coordinate evacuations, shelter assignments, search and rescue, and mutual aid across multiple agencies — all from one command view.
Wildfire Operations
Track containment lines, air operations, evacuation zones, and suppression crews across a rapidly changing fire perimeter.
Flood & Water Rescue
Coordinate water rescue teams, door-to-door welfare checks, shelter routing, and utility restoration after major flooding events.
Mass Casualty Incidents
Manage triage zones, hospital capacity, patient tracking, and multi-agency medical response with ICS medical branch structure.
Compliance and command, in one place
GovResponse is built around the standards agencies already work to — ICS, NIMS, and California SEMS — so the record builds itself as you run the incident.
ICS forms generated from live incident data — 201, 202, 203, 214, and 209
FEMA equipment rate codebook built in for cost recovery and demobilization
Cal OES after-action deadline tracked automatically — CCR Title 19 §2450
One operating picture
Resources, needs, shelters, evacuations, supplies, weather, and damage live on one map and update in real time — so command and the field are never working from different pictures.
Compliance built in
ICS forms, California SEMS, FEMA cost recovery, after-action reports, and a full audit trail are part of the workflow — not a spreadsheet you assemble afterward.
Works where you work
It runs in the browser on any device and keeps working offline. Nothing to install, no app store, no second system to keep in sync.
Ready when the next one hits?
The worst time to learn a new system is during an active disaster. Get GovResponse deployed, trained, and ready before it matters.
