4. What is it? Why Data?

5. Key figures On average Patrol Officers spend 43% of their available time in the police station. Up to 25% of their time is described as “dealing with information” An officer returns to the station an average of 1.7 times during a tour of duty. Source: UK Home Office “Diary of a Police Officer”

6. Key Findings Users like having information when and where they want it Machines need to fit both users and situations and the synergies between them Users accept limitations if they are known and stated at the outset People understand the idea of a better way of working – and may accept it more than something seen as ‘revolutionary’ This is a change in the organisation and, as such, needs to be managed like any other change process The generic ‘business case’ is not enough on its own as it is targeted at a single constituency Robustness is a key to perceived efficiency and effectiveness

7. Policing Bureaucracy Taskforce “By deploying remote access solutions, the time spent in the police station by patrol officers could be reduced by 30 minutes in every eight hour shift” This saves over 5m hours per year = 3,243 officers! plus…a potential saving of £2.6m pa on desktop computers.

8. But the real benefits come from… Enhanced effectiveness More visible policing Increased Efficiency Improved Responsiveness Improved Staff safety Increased Officers Visibility

12. It is about… Different events are generated in response to... Total visibility of any of the workforce 24/7 - Peace of mind for the mobile worker Increased protection to lone workers by using vehicle location/panic buttons Verification tool in cases of discrepancies Historical data securely stored can be used to benefit both the Mobile worker/Management at any point in the future i.e. accident claims from the public The nearest mobile worker can be allocated to a job Reduce travelling time and optimise use of resources. First step to utilising mobile technology

13. Many C&C applications address resources by callsign Individual voice calls & text messages need to be addressed by officer “collar number” TETRA radios must be addressed over air by ISSI In Airwave a numeric Radio User Specific Routing Number (RUSRN) identifies the officer uniquely Aliasing hides radio specific details from external applications...

15. For effective mobile operations... Applications must be easy to use Applications must be integrated

16. So….what about the client? Thick? Thin? SDS? IVR?

17. The calculation "29% of uniformed Constables 'in-station' activity can be impacted by Mobile Data” – Airwave Benefits Analysis study 43% of a Constable's time may be spent in the police station - Diary of a Police Officer This means that five hours a week may be influenced by the use of Mobile Data (29% of 43% of 40 hours a week) The full economic cost of a 10-year Constable is £39,570, or £20 per worked hour
