Incident Repository Overview
The Incident Repository is a digital logbook where your safety team documents and tracks all safety-related events. It replaces manual spreadsheets and scattered files with a centralized, searchable database.
Purpose
The Incident Repository exists to:
- Preserve institutional knowledge — Incidents are recorded and retained, not lost to memory.
- Enable pattern recognition — Search past incidents to identify recurring issues.
- Support accountability — Document who, what, when, and follow-up actions.
- Facilitate LEO coordination — Provide records for law enforcement if needed.
What Gets Recorded
The platform supports three Incident Types, matching the Prisma enum values:
- CTW — Criminal Trespass Warning events.
- REPORT — General incident reports (medical, behavioral, property, etc.).
- OBSERVATION — Near-misses, situational notes, and low-severity observations.
[!NOTE] Not every event requires a formal incident report. Use your organization’s guidelines to determine when documentation is needed.
Incident Data Model
Each incident entry captures:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Date | When the incident occurred. |
| Reporting Member | Who filed the report. |
| Type | CTW, REPORT, or OBSERVATION. |
| Narrative | Mandatory written account of what happened. |
| Subject | Optional short identifier or keywords. |
| Status | Current workflow state (e.g., Open, Under Review, Closed). |
| Involved POCs | Persons of Concern linked to this incident. |
| Attachments | Written reports, photos, or related documents. |
Mobile view: On smaller screens, incident entries display as TacticalFeedCard items with a status-glow ring, an unread dot for items you have not yet opened, and a hero image when one is attached to the report.
