Built for NERIS — By People Who Know the Fire Service

The National Emergency Response Information System (NERIS) represents the future of how fire and EMS agencies capture, report, and share incident data. EPR Fireworks is fully NERIS-compliant, designed to meet the new federal reporting standard for fire incident response software while keeping your team’s day-to-day workflow as straightforward as possible.

NERIS replaces NFIRS with a more flexible, data-rich framework that gives fire service leaders a clearer picture of what’s happening across their operations and across the country. That means every incident response report your team submits contributes to a national dataset that drives policy, funding, and resource decisions at every level of government.

With EPR Fireworks, your department doesn’t just comply with NERIS fire reporting. It gets more out of it. The platform captures the full depth of NERIS data at the point of entry, without adding burden to the crews completing the reports. Fields are logical, workflows are fast, and submissions are accurate the first time.

NERIS Incident Reporting That Works in the Field

Most NERIS fire reporting failures happen because the tools don’t match the reality of how incidents unfold. Crews are busy. Scenes are dynamic. The last thing an incident response team needs is software that slows them down or forces data entry to happen after the fact from memory.

EPR Fireworks captures incident data in real time, tied directly to your incident response process from dispatch through closeout. Personnel assignments, apparatus activity, patient contacts, hazard information, and scene documentation all flow into a single NERIS-compliant record. That means no duplicate entry or reconciliation after the fact.

The result is NERIS reporting software that your crews will actually use, because it’s built around the way they work, not the other way around.

Pre-Incident Planning

Provides instant access to critical data like hydrants, Knox Boxes, and FDC connections helping you make informed tactical decisions in the field.

CAD Integration: Keep Your Incident Response Team in Sync

Access Critical Data Instantly

The right NERIS fire reporting software keeps your team in sync with dispatch for faster, more coordinated responses, meaning that effective incident management starts before the first unit arrives on scene. EPR Fireworks integrates directly with computer aided dispatch systems, pulling CAD data into your incident record automatically. Unit assignments, dispatch times, en-route timestamps, and on-scene arrivals are captured without manual entry, giving you accurate response time data and a complete timeline for every call.

That integration doesn’t merely save time. It also gives chiefs and incident commanders the incident data they need to evaluate incident response capabilities, identify gaps, and make informed decisions about staffing, deployment, and training. When your CAD and your RMS speak the same language, your entire incident response process becomes faster, more accurate, and easier to document.

Enhance Regional Response Coordination

Streamlines coordination with other fire stations and agencies, ensuring your station is always positioned as a reliable regional leader.

HAZMAT Incident Management

Turn Incident Data Into Informed Decisions

Every call your department runs generates data. The question is whether that data is working for you.

EPR Fireworks doesn’t merely store your incident records but surfaces them as actionable intelligence. Chiefs can review response time trends, track incident volume by type and geography, monitor incident response capabilities across the department, and identify where resources or training need to be focused. All of it draws from the same NERIS fire reporting data your crews are already capturing, so there’s no additional reporting burden and no separate analytics tool to manage.

When budget season comes, when an accreditation review is scheduled, or when a major incident puts your department under a microscope, the data is there: organized, accurate, and ready to support the decisions that matter most to the fire service agencies you lead and the communities you protect.
