Sitch Ai LLC — Department of Defense SBIR Phase I: J201-CSO1

Description

In response to the increase in active shooter incidents across the US, institutions such as the Department of Defense (DoD), other federal agencies, police, and education systems have increased security and adapted response procedures. Security Forces cannot afford to wait until disaster strikes before taking action to protect resources and personnel. Security Forces personnel must be able to initially respond and cope with any situation that might occur. The Air Force Emergency Management (EM) Program Planning and Operations Program has developed ongoing guidance and training revolving around active shooter scenarios and lessons learned. Accordingly, comprehensive security and emergency response systems are needed to provide active shooter technology to help keep individuals and bases safer. Active Shooter Facts Fairchild AFB, Former Airman killed four and wounded 23 with a semi-automatic rifle. Eglin AFB: Estranged husband confronts hospital staff with hunting rifle at spouse's work center. McGuire AFB: Mentally unstable retiree kills one. Moody AFB: NCO fires at wife's alleged boyfriend with handgun. Fort Bragg, NCO killed one and wounded 18 with semi-automatic rifle. Fort Dix, six homegrown "radical Islamist" planned to storm base with automatic rifles. Fort Hood, Active Duty Major killed 14 and wounded 43 with pistol. Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) Headquarters: Gunman killed 12 and wounded 3 with 12-gauge shotgun. Ensuring the safety of our nation's Airmen is one of the USAF's top priorities. Having the right tools at the right time and providing the training to properly use them in a high-stress scenario is the key to preventing mass casualties in active shooter scenarios.
