PulsePoint Foundation and Critical Response Group Announce Integration Bringing Nationwide CRG Incident Plans to PulsePoint Professional Responders

PLEASANTON, Calif. and DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla., March 19, 2026—The PulsePoint Foundation, a public nonprofit 501(c)(3) that develops applications supporting public safety agencies, today announced an integration with Critical Response Group (CRG), the nation’s leader in critical incident mapping data. Through the integration, the nationwide catalog of CRG's Collaborative Response Graphics® appear directly within PulsePoint Respond incident maps, equipping responding personnel with actionable intelligence for pre-incident planning and real-time response.

CRG’s critical incident mapping provides situational awareness for multi-agency response in complex structures and during large-scale events. Professional responders in more than 5,500 PulsePoint-connected communities now have access to these highly detailed standardized emergency response maps directly within the same application they rely on for critical information during incident response and coordination.

CRG's 70,000+ mapping products support response operations across schools, healthcare facilities, commercial buildings, and other critical infrastructure environments, nationwide.

PulsePoint Respond is designed to provide responding personnel with focused, incident-relevant information including hydrants, highway cameras, live unit locations and real-time CAD narratives. CRG response plans extend this capability, improving situational awareness, supporting unified command, and helping all responders operate more safely and efficiently during complex incidents.

"This integration delivers high-quality incident planning documents to our agency partners at no cost and without adding to their workload," said Richard Price, Founder and President, PulsePoint Foundation. "CRG's plans cover an impressive breadth of facilities nationwide, and we're excited that so many of our agencies will now have that actionable intelligence at their fingertips when it matters most."

"This integration is a natural extension of CRG's mission — ensuring that every responder arrives on scene with the situational awareness they need to act decisively," said Mike Rodgers, Chief Executive Officer, Critical Response Group. "We're proud to partner with PulsePoint to bring that capability to more than 5,500 communities across the nation."
