A geo-coordinate management framework administers an assignment of geo-coordinates of hardware devices with a known location located within a geo-spatial operating environment of an organizational messaging and risk management software system to enable cooperation between disparate systems and such hardware devices with a known location for responses to events occurring within such a geo-spatial operating environment. The geo-coordinate management framework retrieves sets of geo-coordinates representing locations of hardware devices with a known location in response to the event, wherein the set of geo-coordinates are either embedded within an application programming interface call issued following an event or stored in a look-up table that is cross-referenced in response to the application programming interface call following an event. Such a framework triggers actions based on the geo-coordinates to operate the associated hardware devices in response to the event. Further, the geo-coordinate management framework also updates the set of geo-coordinates assigned to hardware devices by auditing the hardware devices to account for changes in their location due to being moved or replaced, as well as auditing an environment covered by the organizational messaging and risk management software system to capture geo-coordinates of newly-installed hardware devices.
