The problem

For a first responder every second counts, and the gear has to be ready. Captium connects rescue tools and emergency vehicles, but raw diagnostics do nothing for someone under pressure.

Defining the need

I worked closely with engineering and the business team to define the problem and the users' needs first, so the product would answer the challenges emergency responders face rather than just ship.

What I designed

  • Equipment health at a glance
  • Alerts for issues that need resolution
  • A simpler way to record maintenance
