Emergency vehicles for rescue services, fire departments, and police are an essential component of public safety – they save lives, fight fires, and protect our community. But behind the scenes of these life-saving machines lies an immense organizational challenge. A multitude of devices and items must be continuously maintained to ensure compliance with regulations. At the same time, problems must be identified and forwarded to the responsible authorities. If this is not done reliably, bottlenecks can arise, costly damage can occur, and in the worst-case scenario, patient care can be jeopardized.
Together with Dlouhy Fahrzeugbau We have from CIIT-Software developed an innovative solution that overcomes this challenge: the management platform ObJack. This article explains how the collaboration between CIIT and Dlouhy has produced a groundbreaking platform that optimizes the management of emergency vehicles and related assets such as vehicle accessories and medical equipment, setting new industry standards.
A partnership that drives innovation
Dlouhy Fahrzeugbau is a leading provider of specialized vehicles for rescue services, fire departments, and police. The requirements for these vehicles are as complex as their areas of operation. Therefore, it was crucial to create a solution that not only simplifies administration but is also flexible and future-proof. As a long-standing partner for customized software solutions with over 20 years of experience, we at CIIT Software developed the ObJack platform. The goal is to create an intuitive and powerful application that revolutionizes operational planning.
The features that make the difference
Our ObJack software was developed to meet Dlouhy's high standards. The equipment in a single ambulance comprises around 300 components – from devices with a defined lifecycle to equipment that requires regular inspection. ObJack takes the edge off this complexity. Here's an overview of its features:
- Optimized inspection plans: ObJack adjusts inspection dates for various objects to meet current needs.
- Seamless availability: If a device fails, ObJack shows where replacement devices are available at other departments.
- Automatic compliance: ObJack efficiently documents the implementation of guidelines.
- Cross-communication: ObJack enables collaboration between different users, groups, and service providers.
- Individual design: The application can be adapted to the specific requirements of each organization.
Especially in the context of increasing regulations and stricter laws, ObJack offers valuable support. It ensures that no inspections are missed and that no products with expired dates are in use, thus guaranteeing consistently reliable operation.
Intelligent cost tracking with AI
A special feature of ObJack is its AI-powered cost tracking, specifically designed to accelerate the accounting process. By integrating this AI component, cost items such as fuel or repairs can be automatically extracted from uploaded invoices and transferred to the system. The AI reads all relevant invoice data, processes it in the Azure cloud, and seamlessly transfers it to the management system. Users simply need to review and confirm the results, which significantly simplifies the process and reduces errors. You can find out more in this [link/document/etc.]. YouTube video.
Conclusion
With ObJack, we've developed a powerful, future-proof solution that makes managing emergency vehicles and various assets efficient and transparent. By combining user-friendly operation, flexible customizability, and modern features, ObJack not only provides a solution for current challenges but also prepares companies for future requirements. Bring on the future!

Emergency vehicles for rescue services, fire departments, and police are crucial for our safety. As a long-standing partner for customized software solutions, we at CIIT Software, together with our client Dlouhy Fahrzeugbau, have developed an innovative platform. Operating and managing emergency vehicles presents companies with complex challenges: maintenance schedules, invoice processing, and deployment coordination. Previously, these processes were often time-consuming and prone to errors. With the ObJack platform, this is a thing of the past. All administrative processes are now standardized, from maintenance to invoicing – all within a single system. New smart AI tools, such as automated cost tracking, are also already under development. The result: less paperwork and more focus on what matters most – saving lives. My name is Martin Dlouhy. I am the managing director of the family business Dlouhy GmbH.
