Black Coral is a leading edge software application and services company that has developed a suite of integrated products for incident management, data exchange and geospatial collaboration.  Black Coral's integrated product suite enables better outcomes for personnel operating in multi-agency emergency management, homeland security and defense environments. 

Black Coral provides applications designed to manage incidents and resources, enable interoperability, and improve situational awareness among government departments and agencies at all levels. Our products are used by federal, state/provincial and local government agencies in the United States and Canada. Black Coral's suite of products offers a complete solution which includes real-time resource management and asset tracking as well as a fully integrated mapping capability. Collectively, the suite of products provides the tools needed to effectively mitigate, prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies and disasters.

All of Black Coral's products have one theme in common-ease of use.  While many talk about this in general terms, Black Coral keeps this key requirement front and center in every aspect of its product design.  Nothing is more important than ensuring that people can actually use the software effectively during a crisis.  We also take extra precautions to ensure that the application can be deployed quickly and that new users can be commissioned easily in a manner that minimizes error.
