Eight reasons teams rely on Amulet every day.
From first alert to final report.
(During an incident, speed matters.)
Amulet enables personnel to quickly initiate notifications, capture key incident details, attach photos, & activate response teams with just a few clicks. Response leaders can immediately see acknowledgment status, responder availability, and team readiness, reducing delays and improving coordination.
(Emergency response depends on accurate & timely information.)
Amulet provides secure communication channels that allow teams to exchange updates, documents, and operational information in real time. Communication histories can be archived and exported to support investigations, reporting requirements, regulatory reviews, and post-incident analysis.
(Give responders immediate access to the information they need most.)
Organizations can store customized resources directly within the platform. Resources can be updated instantly and distributed to specific response groups without requiring any action from end users.
You can select what resources your responders will find most relevant for use in the app. Sandhurst has a team that can work with you to design custom resources that will provide value during an emergency. The app allows resources to be configured for different response groups, and the app can be updated in real time with no user interaction required.
Resources can include media statements, assessment tools, external contact lists, role guides, initial actions, and hazard-specific response procedures. Sandhurst can work with you to design custom resources that will provide value during an emergency.

Your incident management, all in one place
When incidents become complex, organizations often struggle with disconnected spreadsheets, email chains, paper forms, and multiple communication channels. Critical information becomes difficult to find, decisions are delayed, and documentation becomes harder to maintain.
Developed through collaboration with emergency management professionals and real-world responders, the Virtual Incident Management System (VIMS) provides a centralized environment for managing emergency response activities from initial notification through recovery and reporting.
One platform. Complete visibility.
Everyone involved in the response has access to the same current information, helping improve situational awareness, decision-making, and coordination across teams.
Command, Operations, Planning, Logistics, Finance & Admin and supporting personnel work from a single platform, ensuring information remains organized, accessible, and current.
Every action, decision, and status update is automatically recorded and time-stamped, creating a complete incident record that supports after-action reviews, regulatory reporting, and continuous improvement efforts
Resource requests, operational updates, and planning activities happen in real time, helping teams work more efficiently and reducing information silos.
An Emergency Management Tool Designed Around your Organization
Amulet enables personnel to quickly initiate notifications, capture key incident details, attach photos, & activate response teams with just a few clicks. Response leaders can immediately see acknowledgment status, responder availability, and team readiness, reducing delays and improving coordination.
Unlike many emergency management platforms, VIMS is designed around your organization, not the other way around. Here’s how you benefit:
01
Rather than introducing another standalone application, VIMS integrates into the tools and technology ecosystem your teams already use every day. This reduces implementation challenges and improves user adoption.
02
Users authenticate and work within familiar environments, allowing them to focus on managing the incident rather than figuring out new software.
03
Every organization responds differently. VIMS can be tailored to align with your organizational structure, terminology, approval processes, workflows, and reporting requirements.
04
As your emergency management program evolves, VIMS evolves with you. The system can be adjusted and expanded to support changing operational requirements and organizational growth.
Technology only delivers value when people use it.
Because VIMS is built around familiar tools and organizational workflows, training requirements are significantly reduced. Our implementation approach focuses on helping personnel understand their role-specific responsibilities rather than teaching them an entirely new system.

What is the difference between Amulet & VIMS?
While both platforms support incident response, they key differences between the two is
Together, Amulet and VIMS provide complementary capabilities that support both emergency preparedness and incident management.
Can Amulet and VIMS be used offline?
For full functionality, including notifications, messaging, status updates, collaboration, and incident management activities, both Amulet and VIMS require an active data connection. We recommend that organizations consider connectivity resilience as part of their overall emergency preparedness and response strategy.
However, Amulet provides limited offline functionality, allowing users to access previously downloaded resources stored within the application. This ensures that critical guidance remains available even when connectivity is temporarily unavailable.
How long does it take to implement Amulet and VIMS?
Implementation timelines depend on several factors, including the size of your organization, the level of system customization required, the number of users, and the complexity of your emergency management program.
For organizations seeking a straightforward deployment, implementation can often be completed relatively quickly. More complex implementations involving customized workflows, plans, response structures, integrations, and training may require additional time.
Do you provide demonstrations of Amulet and VIMS?
Absolutely. We would be pleased to provide a personalized demonstration of either platform or both together.
During the demonstration, we will walk you through key features and capabilities, showcase how the tools support incident response, and discuss how they can be configured to support your organization's specific requirements. This is also an opportunity to ask questions, explore use cases, and understand how Amulet and VIMS can be integrated into your existing emergency management, business continuity, or crisis management programs.
