Intergraph Incident Management solution version 9.1 includes new features to simplify system use for the fastest and most appropriate response to emergencies. Enhancements include, but are not limited to:

- integrated mobile desktop workflows that save time and increase efficiency for officers who perform reporting and other desktop tasks in the field;
- enhanced recommend unit and station personnel support to ensure the most appropriate response based on existing requirements, rules and resource availability;
- fire workflow enhancements to support the unique requirements of fire agencies and improve communication between the CAD system and the fire records system;
- a priority special situation alert that clearly escalates specific situations to ensure proper attention;
- a single log-in and workflow consistency across applications; and
- improved alert mechanism and keyword highlighting to differentiate between critical and less urgent alert information.
