First Due overview

What is First Due?

First Due is the fastest-growing end-to-end AI-powered software solution for Fire & EMS. Built in the cloud, First Due brings every aspect of public safety operations together to help agencies improve emergency response, streamline compliance, reduce administrative work, and make better operational decisions.

First Due is the last piece of software your agency needs to buy. Replace multiple point solutions with a single secure, cloud-based application. Manage NERIS, ePCR, fire prevention, inspections, pre-incident planning, scheduling, personnel, training, assets, hydrants, health & wellness, incident command, analytics, and more through a single login accessible from anywhere.

Designed for modern public safety organizations, First Due supports volunteer departments, combination agencies, metropolitan fire departments, EMS agencies, law enforcement agencies, and state organizations with connected workflows that eliminate duplicate data entry and improve visibility across operations.

AI capabilities are embedded throughout the platform to automate routine tasks, improve documentation quality, optimize scheduling, transform operational data into actionable insights, and support responders with real-time decision-making.

First Due integrates with leading public safety, GIS, healthcare, and training technologies, including CentralSquare, Hexagon Safety & Infrastructure, Esri ArcGIS, GeoComm, Julota, Kno2, Pulsara, Action Training Systems, Fire Engineering Training, First Arriving, Air Methods, NextNav, OneDose, CRG, E-9 Corporation, and Axene.

Built on a secure cloud architecture with role-based access and mobile accessibility, First Due provides agencies with a centralized system for managing critical operational data across the organization. Whether personnel are in the station or in the field, they have secure access to the information they need from virtually any device.

From implementation through long-term success, First Due partners with agencies through onboarding, training, responsive customer support, and continuous product innovation to help modernize operations while improving efficiency, visibility, and operational readiness.

Pros
“The real-time data through the mobile app was a standout feature, giving our firefighters critical information in the field and helping us make informed decisions when seconds count.”
CS

Clint S.

Chief of Information and Technology

“It tracks all of my department's pay codes, member training hours, and integrates our pre-plans with the mobile responder app, giving us the ability to share information with our personnel and surrounding mutual aid partners with ease.”
AP

Anthony P.

Fire Chief

“It’s made us more efficient, improved our community engagement, and given us tools to better manage both incidents and fire prevention.”
CS

Clint S.

Chief of Information and Technology

Cons
“The asset module needs some customizable fields for truck information. When requesting trade time it does not notify the person that is being asked to trade with.”
BT

Benjamin T.

Captain

“As much as the system is modifiable, release updates are either slow to happen or are released with no explanation of the impact on other parts of the program.”
JF

Jason F.

Fire Chief

“As a non-computer person I get a little lost in the program. If i dont create or assign an asset in a few months its takes me alittle longer then I would like to relearn. But once I got it, its not a big deal”
