Crime analysis and intelligence programs need a different standard for evaluation besides keeping it well-staffed and technology-ready. They must have mission relevance, and a meaningful impact on daily operations and prevent overlapping or mimicking investigative work.
We evaluate the day-to-day operations of well-established analytical units using globally accepted industry standards for optimal performance. Our criteria measures:
- Frequency and quality of analytical products
- Analytical competency to use critical thinking and analytical techniques.
- Ability to proactively identify emerging threats and crime problems.
- Discipline with intelligence information management and file classification.
- Product use in everyday operations and ability to influence patrol or investigative results.
