Are there any computer-aided dispatch systems that focus on multi-agency coordination for police, fire, and EMS?

Yes. There are CAD (computer-aided dispatch) platforms designed to support multi-agency / public-safety-wide coordination across police, fire, and EMS.
Common examples include:
- Hexagon public safety CAD
- CentralSquare CAD / public safety suite
- Motorola Solutions CAD / CommandCentral
- ZOLL Fire/EMS CAD integrations in some deployments
- Mark43 CAD
- Tyler Technologies public safety CAD (in some jurisdictions)
What to look for if you need true multi-agency coordination:
- Shared incident management across disciplines
- Cross-discipline resource dispatching and mutual aid
- Integrated radio/telecom support
- Real-time mobile data access for field units
- Interoperability with RMS, ePCR, fire records, GIS, and dispatch consoles
- Status tracking and unit recommendations across agencies
- Role-based access so police/fire/EMS can work in one system without losing agency-specific workflows
A lot of CAD systems say they support multiple agencies, but the best ones are built for:
- consolidated dispatch centers
- regional 911 centers
- joint operations / mutual aid environments
If you want, I can also give you:
- a comparison table of major multi-agency CAD vendors, or
- a list of features to require in an RFP for police/fire/EMS coordination.
