Command Center Dashboard

A real-time operational view of every device across every location — designed for program leaders who need readiness visibility, not raw data.

  • Multi-location oversight in a single pane of glass
  • Service exceptions surfaced before they become risk
  • Expiration visibility for pads and batteries
  • Actionable KPI intelligence, not vanity metrics

Alerts & Service Intelligence

Beyond notifications — a prioritized intelligence layer that tells program operators what needs attention, where, and why.

  • Expiration alerts for pads, batteries, and components
  • Service-needed identification from inspection signals
  • Proactive exception awareness across the program

04 · System of Record

Account & Asset Management

A unified system of record from account, to location, to individual device — so every AED has a clear identity, history, and owner.

  • Accounts with multi-program structure
  • Locations organized by site, building, or zone
  • Complete AED inventory across the organization
  • Device-level records with full history
  • A centralized system of record for the program

Role-Based Access & Accountability

Most service models have no concept of accountability. AED Nexus is built around it — with permissions, scope, and attribution that match how real programs operate.

  • Segmented access by responsibility
  • Controlled permissions per role
  • Inspection accountability tied to user identity
  • Account-level visibility controls for leadership

Reporting & Audit Readiness

When the auditor, regulator, or executive asks — the answer is already there. Records, history, and documentation, on demand.

  • Audit-ready records across the program
  • Historical visibility into every device and inspection
  • Compliance support aligned to operational evidence
  • Documentation access for stakeholders and reviewers

The Difference

Built for Continuous Readiness — Not Periodic Service

Traditional service models rely on scheduled interventions. AED Nexus supports continuous operational control — so readiness isn't a date on a calendar, it's a live state.

Traditional Approach
  • Periodic, scheduled service visits
  • Limited visibility between intervals
  • Paper or fragmented inspection records
  • Reactive response to expirations and failures
  • Accountability ends at the service contract
AED Nexus
  • Continuous program-wide readiness state
  • Always-on visibility across every device
  • Structured digital records for every inspection
  • Proactive intelligence on expirations and exceptions
  • Accountability built into roles, not outsourced
How It Works

AED readiness is not a one-time task

In a study of 23,619 public AED inspections, 15.4%* of AEDs inspected were not ready for use.

The AED Nexus Readiness Cycle

Readiness is maintained through a repeating cycle, not a checklist you finish. Each stage feeds the next.

Organize → Monitor → Inspect → Identify → Resolve → Document → Repeat

Organize

Do you know what you're responsible for?

Know what you have and where it is.

Monitor

Do you know what needs attention?

See the issue before it gets overlooked.

Inspect

Do you know your inspections are getting done?

Know who inspected it, when, and what they found.

Identify

Do you know when something is wrong?

Know what needs to be addressed.

Resolve

Can you quickly see what needs action?

Spot the need. Act with clarity.

Document

Can you show what was done?

Keep a record of the work.

Repeat

What happens after today's inspection?

Readiness isn't a one-time task.

Technology supports the process. People carry the responsibility.

AED Nexus does not inspect or service a device. It gives the field a structured workflow and leadership clear visibility.

What AED Nexus provides
  • Structure for program information
  • Guided inspection workflows
  • Visibility, accountability, and a durable record
What people remain responsible for
  • Performing physical inspections and service
  • Training and emergency preparedness
  • Meeting applicable requirements

From one AED to many

The cycle does not change with size — only the structure and delegation around it.

A single site

A handful of devices, one or two people responsible, and a consistent inspection rhythm.

Multiple locations

Inspections assigned locally, readiness visible to whoever oversees the program.

An ongoing program

As devices and personnel change, history stays intact and open items stay owned.
