Liam O’Brien Specialist Capabilities Programme Phase One 1st November 2016

Incremental approach to a longstanding issue Twenty year debate Fragmented response Programme builds dialogue Adopts Networked Policing as unifying concept Capability reviews to support network concept and take short term opportunities Recommendations to develop and strengthen behaviours and mechanisms

A strong case for change underpins the Programme Capabilities are not broken Future challenges are the main driver Transformation fund Platform for new capabilities

Why does the Networked Policing model appear attractive? Still delivers efficiency and effectiveness It protects British Policing model It builds on what we have It is supported by external views

Recommendation one Recommendation One To accept the concept of Networked Policing and to support the following steps: Data Mutual (formerly Trading) Mind-set Leadership Governance 1

Disaggregation within a Specialist Capability Key features: Capability Reviews identified learning from practitioner engagement, data collection and analysis Disaggregation within a Specialist Capability Key features: Network benefits Force Proposals Opportunities within each capability High fixed costs Significant demand volatility Specialist resource input Regularly demanded and easily replicable Requires no immediate physical presence

Recommendation two Recommendation Two To agree the process for considering the capability level proposals 2 S5. Explore options for greater collaboration across multiple forces and agencies, sharing resources and providing contingency more efficiently. S6. Deploy a new model for the delivery of rural surveillance (CROPS). S7. Standardise command platform support for surveillance teams to improve interoperability. S8. Develop options for greater productivity of surveillance teams through improved definition of deployment types and team sizes required to support them. Consider the future balance between dedicated and operational teams. T5. Rationalise the delivery points for high level delivery tactics (e.g. covert method) A3. Rationalise the delivery of high end firearms tactics in the context of the Armed Uplift Programme, in particular the delivery of Dynamic Search and MASTS. A4. Collaborate further in training of specialist skills to improve efficiency and interoperability. M5. Develop a proposal to identify shared delivery models for: CCTV; house to house; and tier 3 and 5 interview advisors. This proposal would also consider applicability to ongoing digital media and forensic work. M6. Create a virtual network of HOLMES indexers supporting multiple forces (maximising opportunities presented by the introduction of the cloud-based HOLMES v16 system). M7. Explore options to improve efficiency and assurance provided by Investigative Review capability. R2. Explore opportunities to better exploit intelligence and support proactivity on the roads network, for example through the use of collaborations. R3. Maximise the operational benefits associated with the roll-out of the national Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cloud-based system. R4. Explore how to rationalise the use of high end roads policing skills (e.g. Collision Investigators).

Recommendation three – next steps 3 Recommendation Three To support the continuation of the Programme: To implement the supported proposals To review Cyber, Intelligence and Proactive Investigation
