    Andreas Huber On the Intersection of Software, the Fire Service, & Fire Protection

    In this episode of The Fire Protection Podcast, Drew sits down with Andreas Huber of FirstDue to discuss the intersection of fire prevention efforts, emergency response, and records management software. Huber shares the importance of easy access to relevant information for fire crews responding to emergencies, “When you're a responding crew dispatched to that building, you're not really flipping through a filing cabinet or a digital filing cabinet. You don't have time to look for things you might care about.” Software that integrates between fire protection contractors, AHJs, and the fire department helps streamline that process from start to finish and ensure accurate, relevant information is in the hands of first responders when they need it.
