No room in the budget for new equipment this year?

A tight budget should not force your agency to keep using aging laptops that freeze, lock up, or slow operations down mid-shift.

Kentucky Rugged can help your department get the rugged equipment it needs now — including Toughbooks, docks, routers, and mobile printers — while spreading the cost out over time.

For public safety agencies, this can be a practical way to modernize without taking one large hit to the capital budget. Plans can also be structured for government purchasing with a non-appropriations clause.

Today we honor the men and women of the United States Armed Forces who gave their lives in service to this country. The freedom to live, work, and serve here was paid for by people we'll never get to thank.
To the families who carry that loss every day, we remember with you.

Look out Kentucky, we're coming to you.
This is the new Kentucky Rugged demo vehicle, and it's about to start logging some serious miles across the Commonwealth. From sheriff's offices in the eastern hills to fire stations on the western side, we're bringing the Toughbooks straight to your station.
Want to see an FZ-G2 in person? Get hands on a CF-33? Compare the FZ-55 to whatever you're running now? We'll come to you. No travel for your team, no off-site demos. Just real hardware, real conversation, in your station's parking lot.
We're a Kentucky business, on the Kentucky State Contract through NASPO ValuePoint, and we believe the best way to earn your trust is to show up.
If you'd like us on your calendar, give us a call.

Another fleet coming together. Imaged, configured, ready to roll.
Fleet refreshes look simple from the outside, but the work happens in the prep room. Every unit gets imaged with the agency's software stack. Peplink routers configured, GPS to CAD dialed in, firmware verified, licenses activated. By the time these laptops hit a dashboard, they're ready for the shift — no IT scramble, no wasted time in the field.

Here's what makes it different when you buy local:

We do this work right here in Lawrenceburg, KY. Your units don't ship to a warehouse in another state for imaging. They come to our shop, get built the way your agency needs them, and go out the door ready. If something needs to be adjusted, we're a phone call and a short drive away.
Kentucky Prime Dealer. Kentucky State Contract through NASPO ValuePoint. Kentucky team doing the work.

If your agency is planning a refresh or sizing up how to outfit your next fleet, give us a call. The sooner we're in the conversation, the smoother the rollout.

This is what we do. Rugged hardware, professional installation, Kentucky agencies taken care of by a Kentucky team. Based right here in Lawrenceburg, on the Kentucky State Contract through NASPO ValuePoint.
If your department is planning an upgrade or outfitting a new truck, give us a call. We'll come out, look at your setup, and do it right.

Meet the Panasonic Toughbook 56. Engineered for the extreme, built for the shift ahead.
When the job pushes your equipment to its limits, small upgrades aren't enough. The Toughbook 56 combines next-generation performance, extended battery life, and proven Panasonic durability in one fully modular platform.
What that means in the field:

Up to 24 hours of runtime with dual hot-swappable batteries
14" high-brightness display readable in direct sunlight
Wi-Fi 7, optional 5G, and faster wired connectivity
Built-in AI acceleration for real-time performance
MIL-STD-810H and IP-rated durability
Modular design that adapts to your workflow

For agencies already running Toughbook 54s or 55s, most standard configurations are backwards compatible with your existing vehicle docks. Refresh without re-outfitting every vehicle.
Available starting in May. As your Panasonic Prime Dealer on the Kentucky State Contract, we'll have pricing and availability the moment it drops. Give us a call to get on the list.

Your ambulance is your office, your ER, and your lifeline — all in one.
EMS and fire crews don't get to pick their working conditions. Pouring rain, 100° heat, the back of a moving rig at 2 AM — your technology has to keep up no matter what.
That's exactly what Panasonic Toughbooks are built for. MIL-STD tested, water and dust resistant, readable in direct sunlight, and designed to survive the drops and vibrations that come with life on the rig.
Kentucky EMS and fire agencies can purchase directly through the Kentucky State Contract — no bid process, no hassle. Just reliable equipment when your crews need it.
