For law enforcement officers, knowing what to expect in an encounter saves lives. With the right inputs, GL Suite provides context to law enforcement officers heading to calls or disputes about whether the person of interest has a firearms permit, including the quantity and makes and models of owned firearms. Similarly, officers in the field can search license plate numbers to generate a list of all firearms owned and permits held by the registered owner of a vehicle.
By arming first responders with greater knowledge and context about the situations they are about to approach, GL Suite helps law enforcement personnel stay safer as they work to protect the public.
GL Suite centralizes gun permits and federal firearm licenses into a modern integrated digital system that enables agencies to track gun permit applications and firearms more efficiently and effectively.
Capabilities GL Suite makes possible:
GL Suite also helps law enforcement agencies flag stolen firearms by connecting to state and federal regulatory systems and/or databases tracking stolen firearms. Exact matches are automatically flagged, while partial matches can be added to a list for manual verification.
Systems for background checks are often separate from other firearm-related functions, leading to errors and inefficiencies as information is manually transferred or copied from one software system to another. GL Suite unifies numerous functions into a single system, eliminating manual work and gaps in communication.
Firearms permitting agencies can also use the GL Suite application to create a unified portal for gun applicants, dealers and agency staff, streamlining both sides (applications and approvals/denials). By eliminating paper workflows along with duplicate and parallel processes, GL Suite enables regulatory agencies to scale their capacity while improving accuracy and safety.
