There is power in numbers, and in particular when those numbers work together. For example, law enforcement can't do their best in fighting robbery and theft when working alone. When the community joins together with law enforcement, the power of that association increases, not by two, but by FOUR. It's a mathematical thing, not clearly understood by most of us.
It has something to do with squaring, rather than doubling. When you add a technology partner (that's us) to provide rapid detection, notification, and response capability, the increase in crime fighting capability increases by TEN TIMES! That's why the No Time To Spare and the HelpAlert programs came about - good people working together to stop bad people from doing bad things! The No Time To Spare program has evolved from an initial focus on improving law enforcement response time to an inclusive plan to improve not only law enforcement, but fire and medical emergencies as well.
Let's put it another way. The typical response time in medium sized cities to armed robbery or burglary calls reported through an alarm service is ten minutes. Calls made directly to E911 lower the response time by two minutes (average six to eight minutes). Adding HelpAlert to bypass both alarm service call centers and E911 can cut response time by as much as 80% If you want to catch a bad guy in municipal areas, the response has to be less than four minutes. They are counting on that which is one of the reasons that crime is growing in rural areas where the response time can be up to forty-five minutes or more! This is why we have developed several different plans to address different requirements, either with or without direct links to law enforcement and more recently to fire departments and emergency medical service providers
The No Time for Crime program primarily addresses issues relating to assault, burglary, and robbery. No Time for Fire addresses the need for rapid response to high value and/or high risk structures, in particular those that are not occupied for long periods of time. The Time To Help Others addresses the need for speeding up medical response. Each program is based on different needs for different users in different locations. ALL can enhance personal safety and substantially reduce crime, property damage, loss of life and/or injury as well as insurance rates in the community.
