Meet the bes team at esri’s safety & Security Summit + User Conference

Come check out BES's booth at Esri’s Safety & Security Summit!

Bent Ear Solutions is excited for our booth at ES3, showcasing our latest innovations in the public safety industry, including how to get the most out of your technology through the Connected Framework and our cutting-edge geospatial data services.

On the big stage

We’re proud to have two Bent Ear Solutions clients presenting our work at ES3! Kentucky Emergency Management (KYEM) will showcase how the Connected Framework approach helped them drop costly subscription fees and get more from their existing technology. Learn more about BES’s project with KYEM in our case study. The third-largest county within the United States, Harris County, Texas, will dive into how our partnership is creating a smarter approach to hazard mitigation planning (HMP) by better leveraging their technology investments.

KERMIT: KYEM's Approach to Emergency Management GIS Partnerships

Join Doug Eades and Payten Jarnagin for this conversation about how KYEM and state partners, along with Esri and partners like BES, built a GIS-based incident management system using surveys, ArcGIS Dashboards, and ArcGIS Experience Builder, and then empowered it with ArcGIS for Microsoft 365.

Leveraging Technology to Breathe Life into Hazard Mitigation Planning

Hear Brittany Ray from Harris County reimagine their hazard mitigation planning process by partnering with Bent Ear Solutions. This session shares our vision, the story behind the partnership, and how we are creating a platform where residents can understand local hazards, explore their risk, and see the mitigation actions underway to build a more resilient community.

We can’t miss Esri’s User Conference!

Our all-star team will stay through the User Conference to interact with other leaders of the GIS community, meet our partners and clients, and continue to showcase the value our Data Services and Connected Framework provide. Check out who’s attending below!

Key Takeaways

  • Strategies to enhance crew safety and support faster, more informed emergency response

  • How real-time flood data enables proactive staging, rerouting, and resource allocation

  • Tools and workflows for rapid impact assessments and streamlined service restoration

  • Best practices for integrating flood intelligence into existing operations and systems
