Accufix, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business, is making significant contributions to emergency response services in Colorado Springs. The company, founded by veterans who wish to continue serving their country, specializes in custom vehicle modifications for various emergency responders, including the fire department, SWAT teams, and local police.
One of their standout offerings is a unique bulletproofing technology for SWAT vehicles, which allows windows to be lowered while still providing protection. This innovative feature enables SWAT teams to utilize their vehicles as cover during operations, a capability that is rare, with only three manufacturers nationwide providing similar services.
In addition to their work with emergency services, Accufix also assists the local airport, including repairs for hail damage on aircraft. The company prides itself on being a good neighbor, often lending tools and support to others at the airport, although they operate strictly under government contracts and do not serve the general public.
The meeting highlighted Accufix's commitment to community service and their specialized role in enhancing public safety through their tailored vehicle modifications.
