Helpers check in
A QR code hangs at the assembly point. Responders scan their registration card, spontaneous volunteers watch the safety briefing as a video and receive a volunteer ID.

The whole incident in one interface.
The K-Schutz Suite connects incident command, medical service, care, volunteer registration, warehouse and logistics. It runs on one computer in the incident network – helpers use their own phone in the browser, without an app and even without internet.
- Your own server, your own data
- One sign-in for all modules
- German, English, Czech
Built for the scene, not the office
When a casualty treatment area is set up, a gym becomes an emergency shelter or a care home has to be evacuated, every minute counts. The suite replaces paper slips, radio messages and spreadsheets with one shared view of the situation.
Runs on site
A Windows laptop in the incident network is enough. No cloud service, no dependence on the mobile network – the data stays with your organisation.
Every phone becomes a terminal
Scan a QR code, sign in, get started. Responders register with their registration card, squad leaders report their strength from the vehicle.
Everything is connected
A casualty from the decontamination site appears at the treatment area, a logistics delivery in the shelter's stock, and every figure live at incident command.
14 modules for every area
Each module can be switched on individually. Users and rights are managed centrally in the admin module – once signed in, people move between modules without signing in again.

Casualties are registered and triaged
At the treatment area every patient is recorded with a triage category. Patients from decontamination or an evacuation arrive with their data – no typing it in again.
Treatment · CBRNE · Medical record

Affected people are cared for, relatives get answers
The emergency shelter registers arrivals, assigns places and manages distribution. Person information matches enquiries against all registrations.
Care · Person information
-
Supplies arrive before they run out
Logistics sees the shortages of the care stations, puts together packing lists and books the stock that expires first. The driver confirms the delivery with a signature.

Incident command leads with figures

- Reachable on the moveOptionally via a VPN solution and your own address such as cham.k-schutz-suite.de – with a valid certificate and without opening ports on the router.
- Backed upAutomatic full backup of all modules, restore everything or single modules.
- MultilingualHelper screens in German, English and Czech – for cross-border operations and international volunteers.
- Your logoDelivery notes, transport slips, notices and lists carry your organisation's logo.
Born out of volunteer work
The K-Schutz Suite is developed by Andreas Liebert – a volunteer in the medical and rescue service of the Bavarian Red Cross units in the Cham district, and a professional in IT security for many years.
That is why it works with the forms and procedures that are actually used in civil protection.

The software and its interface are primarily in German; helper screens are also available in English and Czech.
