Digital driver's license check in the emergency services

Oberhaching, March 2025
Rescuecontrol Software GmbH is a software provider in the field of rescue services. Since 2011, rescuecontrol has been programming the rescue service software RDSuite and is constantly developing it further.
It all started with the practical need to manage the rescue service warehouse at a station digitally, more efficiently, faster and, above all, more reliably, rather than with pen and paper. This resulted in a warehouse module which, thanks to constant feedback from users, has evolved into an entire collection of software components for the emergency services, the RDSuite.
RDSuite can cover the following areas:
- Stock management
- MPG management (digital medical device book)
- Employee management
- Vehicle management
- Driver's license control
- Digital guard book
The emergency services sector is becoming increasingly digital - a development that does not stop at checking employees' driving licenses. Rescuecontrol Software GmbH, a leading company for digital solutions in the emergency services sector, relies on innovative RFID/NFC driver's license labels from smart-TEC to make this process more efficient, secure and legally compliant.
The most important functions of the digital driver's license check
The digital driver's license check module offers numerous advantages for emergency services. An unlimited number of employees can be registered without additional monthly costs. The check intervals can be customized to meet the specific requirements of the organization. Employees receive automatic SMS notifications when a check is due, which minimizes the administrative burden. All checks carried out are documented in a tamper-proof and legally compliant log file. A user-friendly smartphone app for iOS and Android is also available for flexible use.
As the employees carry out the checks independently, the workload for the person responsible is significantly reduced. They only have to take care of those who do not carry out the driving license check themselves - whether due to illness, vacation or because they have had to surrender their driving license. Instead of regularly checking all employees, the effort is now limited to a small remaining group. A significant relief for the person responsible.Maximum efficiency through digital processes
The solution enables paperless and error-free recording of driving license checks. Employees can scan their smart-LABEL driver's license independently using an RFID reader on the admin PC, a WLAN scanner in the vehicle hall or an app. The data is securely recorded in the system and stored under the respective employee. This ensures audit-proof documentation, which also serves as proof in the event of an accident or claim.
The competition never sleeps, even in the emergency services sector. This is why it will become increasingly important in the future to optimize as many processes as possible with software support. We offer solutions for these challenges!

The heart of RFID/NFC technology is the tamper-proof and forgery-proof driver's license label
from smart-TEC
The RFID/NFC technology helps to make the time-consuming and costly process of checking driving licenses faster and more secure. RFID/NFC driver's license labels are affixed to each employee's driver's license. When the label is removed, the integrated chip is also destroyed by intelligent security features. Misuse of the label is effectively ruled out.
