Many modern-day police departments emphasize a proactive approach to the work they do on a daily basis&#8211;sadly this is sometimes easier said than done.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Difficult Path to Proactive Policing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many departments struggle to stay coordinated while generating a proactive response to crimes and similar issues. Why? They don&#8217;t have the resources, the manpower or the tools required of such an important task for several reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Patrol officers are often frustrated by the administrative work outside of calls for service. There are no quick and easy ways to report their activities effectively and efficiently during \u201cuncommitted\u201d time to their command staff. They are also frustrated with the volume and frequency of crime bulletins: most of the time they are not targeted. Bulletins are sent to everyone in an agency instead of the audience that it was intended for and lack a standard format.<\/li>\n<li>Command is frustrated by how to digest incomplete, inconsistent, and\/or voluminous paper data into effective strategies.\u00a0 They want to see real-time information and they want it NOW; they need it to report back to other members of command staff and the community. However, they often cannot because they lack the necessary actionable data required to see which strategies and responses generate the best results.<\/li>\n<li>Crime Analysts often feel like their role is downplayed, leaving them with a sense that they&#8217;re unappreciated. They&#8217;re also frustrated, as their crime analysis service and products go unused.<\/li>\n<li>Investigators lack the secure collaborative workspaces, document management, and case management tools needed to coordinate their efforts involving long-term complex investigations, involving multiple victims, multiple suspects and pieces of evidence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All of this doesn&#8217;t just lead to work duplication and redundancy &#8211; it leads to a lack of coordination, and in-effective use of resources. This affects the morale of the department and can negatively impact the relationship with the communities they serve.<\/p>\n<p>At Adventos, we believe in a world where these silos are shattered. We are creating a world for (and with) public safety organizations where collaboration is effortless and instant. A world where the right data is in front of the right people at exactly the right time- making sure all involved have what they need to keep us safe from harm.
