BowMac.com represents two companies, BowMac Educational Services, Inc. (established 1980) and BOWMAC Software, Inc. (established 1997), who are dedicated to increased public safety on a national basis. We are comprised of a group of individuals each with between 20 and 35 years of policing, training and management experience in public safety.

BowMac Educational Services, Inc. delivers high quality training programs to communities in three main areas; Critical Incident Management, Community Policing and Interviewing & Investigative Strategies.

In the early 90's, long before NIMS was required under HSPD-5, BowMac implemented ICS-based plans into schools, colleges, universities, and municipalities.

BowMac's "Simulation-Based Training for Command Post Personnel" has recently been certified by the Office for Domestic Preparedness, rendering it eligible for Federal and State terrorism funding.

We have provided major "turn key systems" of our Simulation-Based Critical Incident Management Command Post and Initial Response courses to the States of New Mexico, Connecticut, Wisconsin, Illinois, Massachsetts, as well as the Metro Dade Police Department and the Panamaian National Police through the Justice Department. Thousands of Police, Fire and EMS Command personnel from hundreds of agencies across the country have benefited from this training. Our focus has always been to build useable skills through innovative simulation and role-play exercises rather than classroom lecture.

BOWMAC Software, Inc. in collaboration with the National League of Cities Risk Information Sharing Consortium serves as your automated and on-line source for Community Emergency Planning. Our web-based tools are designed to allow the customer to take control of the planning process absent costly consultants. These products represent years of training and consulting with clients in various organizations to make their environments safer. Our "REDI for School Emergencies" and "Aftermath for Schools" software is currently in use in over 1000 School Districts nationally.

As both of our companies grow and evolve we find a natural interweaving of services emerging. Our Software Planning customers are seeking training that will make their plans more effective, and our training customers realize that the skills and techniques taught need to be reflected in their planning. At the very core of our philosophy is the fundamental belief that integration of disciplines in the planning and training process is what brings about rapid and lasting change. Too long have Police trained with Police, Fire with Fire, EMS with EMS, etc., setting up natural barriers to effectiveness when they are called upon to work, plan and act together.
