Every call on record. NERIS in one click.
NFIRS is retired and NERIS is the national incident reporting system now. In WatchRoom there's nothing to migrate to: every call you log is already in the NERIS format, and filing is one click from the record.
The run log, with filing status built in
Every call your department made, grouped by month with call counts and structure fires tallied. The strip at the top is your NERIS picture at a glance — what's still in draft, what filed, and what errored — so federal reporting stops being a mystery pile.
Working fires are badged, responder counts and apparatus are on every row, and search covers number, address, type, and apparatus.
Log the call the way NERIS needs it — without knowing NERIS
Type, date, address, apparatus, commander. For structure fires, the alarms-and-suppression questions NERIS requires are right on the form, worded plainly — was each system present, determined from what was found on scene. The federal classification picks itself (“Automatic”) from your incident type; override it only when a more specific type fits.
You don't study a federal data dictionary. You answer the questions a firefighter can answer, and the record comes out in the national standard.
The full fire story, when there is one
Floor and room of origin, conditions on arrival, damage, cause, water supply used, investigation types — the complete fire detail NERIS accepts, all optional as a section. Leave it blank to skip it; complete it to file it. The form tells you honestly that a half-filled section blocks submission, so you never find out at filing time.
Times are individual fields — dispatched, en route, on scene, controlled, returned — and the record uses whatever you captured. WatchRoom computes turnout-plus-travel and on-scene duration from them automatically.
Review the record, then submit
The finished record shows the time chain with the computed response numbers, apparatus, aid type, commander, and the full responder roster with each member's rig. The NERIS strip states its status plainly — logged here, not sent yet — and Submit to NERIS is the one click. No second system, no retyping into a portal.
Every incident also prints as a branded PDF, and calls with a written narrative can be pulled into a single narratives report — the written record of your runs, ready when an attorney, an investigator, or your own memory asks for it.
Log by voice
“Structure fire at 210 Oak today, 8 responders, engine 1 and tanker 2.” Say it, review the draft it builds, save. The fastest way to log on the ride back.
Responders in two taps
The roster is a checklist. Tap who responded, set apparatus on everyone at once or per person, and note who ran command or the nozzle.
The ISO math runs quietly
Structure-fire turnout — firefighters per working fire, response staffing — is computed from the rosters you log and feeds the readiness dashboard automatically.
Part of the base plan ($30/month). Incident logging with voice, NERIS filing, your roster and certifications, branded reports, and the Station Ops dashboard are all included in the base. See full pricing.
