In 2001, the Vancouver Police Department implemented Versaterm CAD as part of a province-wide Versadex PoliceCAD/RMS rollout led by the Province of British Columbia. Versaterm CAD is a Computer Aided Dispatch solution within the Versadex suite selected in 2001 to provide integrated CAD, RMS, MDT and mobile report entry to support cross-jurisdictional incident management.
Deployment centered on integrated incident intake and dispatch workflows, records management linkage and mobile data terminal integration to provide frontline officers with consolidated situational awareness. The implementation of Versaterm CAD combined Computer Aided Dispatch functionality with RMS and mobile reporting capabilities to ensure incident records, unit assignments and field reporting were synchronized across agencies.
The rollout was explicitly planned as province-wide, with the Vancouver Police Department participating in initial selection and deployment activities in 2001, enabling coordinated incident management across jurisdictions and frontline units. Reported objectives included improved efficiency and increased situational awareness for frontline officers, reflecting operational aims rather than quantified performance claims.
