A recent press release announces, “Accenture has helped the Seattle Police Department (SPD) build and deploy a new data analytics platform that provides the Department with reliable and rapidly accessible data to meet its management and governance objectives and support insight-led policing. By enabling the Department to consolidate, prepare and analyze critical data relating to a wide variety of operational matters – including police calls and incidents, interactions with the public, use-of-force incidents, administrative processes, officer training and workforce management – the new data analytics platform provides the Department with enhanced reporting capabilities and insights into its day-to-day operations and investigations.”

The release goes on, “Among these new capabilities is a system of alerts that enables the SPD to make data-driven decisions based on analytics insights and informs leadership of incidents and cases of complaints that are outside established parameters and might require further inquiry – thereby enabling the Department to improve leadership monitoring and oversight of policing activities and administrative processes. ‘Accenture is proud to have helped the Seattle Police Department unlock the power and value of analytics to improve its operating and investigative capabilities,’ said Jody Weis, who leads Accenture’s Public Safety business in North America. ‘With this new capability, the Department is better able to improve its leadership monitoring, administrative processes and oversight of policing activities’.”
