• Police operates in complex environment– Demanding: correct and precise actions in time– Changing, sometimes rapidly– Dynamic in long time, influenced by different

aspects• Police organisation is multifunctional• Management process of the police organisation

– Each officer has power and has to make decisions – Co-ordination of activities of different actors– Integration of functions and resources

What characterises the police?

Tasks for ICT in the police

• Support police activities (databases, queries)• Facilitate police work procedures (workflow)• Support specialists• Support management

– Resource handling and planning– Statistics– Planning and simulation of activities and possible

results• Enhance police presence virtually: e-services, CCTV

Challenges – additional requirements to keep in mind

• The police ICT needs evolve in time

• New people – new attitude, habits and knowledge

• Technology that is used in other domains change

Suggestions for police ICT systems

• Simplicity and smartness

• Modularity and integration

• Software configurability and reusability

The e-police project

• A mobile workplace to enable a police patrol making queries to police databases

• Police – commerce co-operation in research and development

• Lot of ideas gathered from other systems, but not really suitable solution found.

• Taylor-made prototype was made consisting of car PC, communication and status module and GPS.

Suggestions for police ICT systems

• Simplicity and smartness

• Modularity and integration

• Software configurability and reusabilityExamples:– Reconfigurable Case Management System

(Ida Infront; Oracle Siebel)– Mobile solution for the police and fire departments with

TETRA (TErrestrial Trunked RAdio), a digital radio service (Deutsch Telekom)

Areas that are uncovered and need more development

• Tasks: – Support police activities– Facilitate police work procedures (workflow)– Support deep specialists– Support management– Enhance police presence

• Work tools (laptop, mobile tools also for different areas – foot patrol, bikes, mounted patrols etc)

• Simulation (situation, long term, procedure analysis)

Analysis and simulation: vehicle theft case

Detaining of vehicle and persons

Acceptance of further driving

P3.4. Detaining of law-breaker

Stopping and checking the vehicle and persons by PO

J2.2.A + ... + J2.9.A Receiving, checking and registering the statement in LC

Role model

• Formerly: IT offered solutions that simplified police work

• Today’s systems are integrated with processes• The police is owner of data and processes

– ICT supports the processes• IT unit as provider of systems• The police has to know what to order• The police has to manage information• The police should keep the initiative

Summary

• The police ICT must be reactive and proactive

• Police task is not to implement the best available ICT but – to analyse the needs and– to synergise suitable solution that could have

long life horizon, considering abilities of contemporary ICT

• We need more innovation and R&D

Modern police consists of

• Proper work methods and procedures• Organisational values• Modern contemporary technology• Efficient training
