OPS Coalition
/oh-p-ess kōəˈliSHən/
“A unified network of independent agencies working together toward a common mission. By combining shared intelligence, resources, and technology, the OPS coalition delivers a stronger, more coordinated approach to public safety. Through real-time collaboration and connectivity, OPS empowers its members to increase inter- and intra-agency awareness and operational efficiency — extending impact across jurisdictions while dramatically reducing the financial burden of adopting modern technology.”
What makes OPS so effective is the fact that the core mission is all that matters.
Online Policing Solutions, Inc. is a GovTech SaaS contractor exclusively focused on serving federal, state, county, and local agencies within the collaborative policing space. OPS develops and maintains proprietary software solutions designed to foster seamless collaboration between law enforcement professionals, public safety entities, and the communities they serve.

This shared approach allows agencies to benefit from a continuously expanding network of cutting-edge technology without the burden of traditional costs, while ensuring the network grows in direct alignment with real-world operational needs.
By empowering agencies to build trust, share information, and work together more effectively, Online Policing Solutions, Inc. has established itself as the industry leader in innovative collaborative and community policing technology and across the broader collaborative policing field.
Our Story
A Journey to the Future
The entire Online Policing Solutions team is comprised of dedicated criminal justice professionals (retired and active duty), educators, community members and the nation’s very best software developers, designers and engineers; all working side by side.
This journey began in 2014 when a group of community oriented law enforcement professionals began thinking of ways to better connect and partner with the communities they serve while, at the same time, helping agencies become more efficient and better prepared to serve their communities. In addition to community policing and partnerships, these discussions included how to allow law enforcement to connect and share information with each other, across jurisdictional borders, without the intrusion of advertisements and the data-mining of information, which has become so prevalent on mainstream network providers. Through these discussions, the idea of a secure, law enforcement controlled network was born, and the process began to create the world’s very first community policing network and law enforcement specific operating system.
Once the first version of the OPS Network was developed, the network (now officially called the “National Law Enforcement and Community Policing Integrated Network”) was put into action and proved to be a resounding success, transforming community policing and law enforcement operations for those pioneering agencies. This success necessitated the creation of Online Policing Solutions, Inc., a professional organization specifically formed to ensure the growth and prosperity of the OPS Network for all of its OPS Network Partner agencies and communities.
The Online Policing Solutions’ headquarters is located in New Jersey with a server network spanning across the United States. All OPS Network developers and engineers are not only employed by Online Policing Solutions, Inc. but are stakeholders in the application and dedicated to its continued success.
Everyone involved in this amazing endeavor have painstakingly worked hand in hand with our development team to ensure that the OPS Network™ is efficient, professional, financially accessible and laser focused on the advancement of law enforcement and an unbreakable community to policing partnership.
