Acoustic gunshot detection

Gunshot detection that triggers action, not confusion

We design and support Shooter Detection Systems deployments as part of a broader security stack. It is integrated to cameras, access control, maps, and incident workflows so response is fast and consistent.

Shooter Detection Systems (SDS) is a trademark of its respective owner. We design and support solutions built on their platform as part of a broader security environment.

How we engage
Coverage planning and integration into your operating picture, then managed services to keep performance stable over time.
What we're hired to fix
Detections that do not route correctly, missing camera call-ups, unclear playbooks, and systems that drift after go-live.
Where it fits best
Education, corporate campuses, public-facing environments, and critical facilities that need fast event verification and consistent response paths.
Shooter Detection Systems (SDS)

Verified gunfire alerts wired into real response workflows

Gunshot detection is only useful when it reliably triggers the right cameras, maps, notifications, and operator steps within seconds, not minutes.

We design SDS coverage, zoning, and escalation so alerts are actionable. The event lands in the systems your team already uses, with a repeatable playbook for what happens next.

That means pairing acoustic zones with camera call-ups, access control actions, and incident workflows (SOC/PSIM/dispatch), with governance and testing that holds up over time.

Outcomes we design for

From "detection" to a coordinated operating response

We treat gunshot detection as part of an end-to-end incident path: detect, verify, route, respond, document.

Fast camera call-ups

SDS events trigger the right camera views and bookmarks instantly, reducing time to visual confirmation.

Operational governance

Testing, tuning, and documentation to keep performance stable and response consistent as sites change and teams rotate.

Workflow + escalation paths

Alerts routed to the right teams with playbooks that reflect your SOPs, campus or facility policies, and escalation tiers.

Zones that match reality

Acoustic coverage and zoning aligned to buildings, courtyards, parking, and perimeters so alerts make sense to operators and responders.

Integration & automation

Make SDS events drive doors, maps, and incident workflows

SDS integrates into your operating picture so verified events trigger the same view your team trusts: maps, cameras, access control actions, and incident routing.

The focus is speed and consistency. Operators see the same event structure every time, responders get the same escalation path, and leadership gets defensible after-action reporting.

Typical SDS event path
Act
Doors, lockdown rules, dispatch
Detect
SDS event (zone + confidence)
Document
Timeline + after-action outputs
Route
SOC/PSIM + notifications
Verify
Camera call-ups + bookmarks
What we validate

Design details that reduce noise and increase trust

Detection is sensitive work. We validate signal paths and operational behaviors before you rely on it.

Alert semantics

Clear definitions for event types, confidence thresholds, and what constitutes "actionable" vs "informational" for your environment.

Evidence & reporting

Bookmarks, snapshots, timelines, and reporting patterns designed for after-action review, compliance, and leadership updates.

Health monitoring

Sensor status, network paths, and integration health checks so failures are visible immediately, not discovered after an incident.

Playbooks + SOP alignment

Operator steps, escalation tiers, and notification targets aligned to real policies and response partners.

Design & engineering

Coverage planning that fits buildings, campuses, and perimeters

We plan SDS alongside cameras, doors, and perimeters so zones match real spaces and event actions match real response.

That includes floor-level and site-level drawings, device placement intent, and the network and power assumptions needed for reliable performance.

Coverage planning deliverables
Cameras
Verification views + bookmarks
Maps
Where operators see events + call-ups
SOPs
Escalation, routing, notification tiers
Testing
Validation drills + acceptance criteria
Zones
Buildings, outdoor areas, courtyards, parking
Managed for the long term

Testing, tuning, and lifecycle support so performance does not drift

Detection systems are not "set it and forget it." Environments change. We keep SDS aligned through ongoing support, documentation, and operational ownership.

Documentation updates for playbooks, roles, and reporting

Periodic validation drills and escalation testing

Routine health checks for sensors, network paths, and integrations

Upgrade planning so firmware and software changes do not break response

How we deliver SDS

A deployment path designed for speed, trust, and operational adoption

Use this strip to explain how you move from discovery to delivery in a way that feels predictable and grounded.

Coverage + zoning design
Plan device placement and zones that reflect buildings, outdoor areas, and perimeter context.
Go-live + managed services
Train operators, publish playbooks, and keep performance stable through monitoring, testing, and lifecycle support.
Integration + validation
Wire events into cameras, maps, notifications, and incident workflows. Validate end-to-end behavior with drills.
Workflow + response mapping
Define who receives alerts, how verification happens, and what "success" looks like in real response.
