Vector Solutions Expands into Canadian Market Through Acquisition of Global Risk Innovations

Acquisition Provides Greater Performance Resources and Support to First Responders in Canada

Tampa, FL – January 24, 2018 – Vector Solutions, the leader in industry-focused eLearning and performance support solutions, announced its acquisition of Global Risk Innovations (GRI), a fire department software provider specializing in innovative online training, professional development, and risk management solutions for first responders in Canada.

Vector’s acquisition of GRI makes TargetSolutions’ powerful learning management system and recordkeeping applications more readily available across Canada. With TargetSolutions’ comprehensive records management tools, agencies in Canada can track and report all types of licenses, certifications, policies, and job performance requirements (JPRs) or playbooks.

“Our goal is to help foster safer, more compliant and more effective organizations by providing a complete training and operations management solution,” said Marc Scheipe, Chief Operating Officer of Vector Solutions. “TargetSolutions will assist public safety agencies across Canada in achieving greater efficiencies and compliance through the acquisition of Global Risk Innovations.”

TargetSolutions’ comprehensive, one-of-a-kind suite of training and operations management applications are unique in their ability to meet public safety agencies’ various needs. The online training management system streamlines the delivery and tracking of training and compliance tasks. By connecting the online training management system – which features more than 250 hours of accredited EMS continuing education – with its operations and workforce management modules, critical data is centralized and easily accessible.

“We work to provide agencies with the tools to streamline processes, ensure personnel are trained effectively, track every single hour of training, and manage all types of inspections of apparatus, equipment and other inventory,” continued Scheipe. “We’re a unique, one-of-a-kind solution for public safety agencies.”

Clients of both Vector and GRI can expect to receive the same level of outstanding products and customer service to which they have been accustomed.
