Webinar One: Interoperability
13th January 2025 10am to 11.30am (GMT)
Interoperability is an essential element of any strategy if policing is to exploit the benefits of new and emerging technologies to deliver a service to our communities that is reassuring, efficient and effective at the earliest point of contact.
In the first webinar attendees will be provided with an overview of the strategic approach to transforming contact and addressing the business problems this area of policing is facing.
The session will explore from a digital perspective how 40 of the 43 forces in England and Wales are now utilising the common web platform Single Online Home and are now utilising more effective ways of transferring data around the back end systems to improve
productivity.
The challenges faced by policing are not unique and the demands on policing are, in some cases, symptomatic of similar challenges in partner organisations. Contact Management lends itself to innovation and new technology and therefore sustainable solutions require a collaborative approach with those organisations and commercial suppliers.
Speakers will include:
- Assistant Chief Constable Catherine Akehurst, NPCC National Contact Management Lead
- Deputy Chief Constable Simon Megicks, NPCC Digital Public Contact Programme Senior Responsible Officer
- Simon Hall, techUK, Chair Justice and Emergency Services Interoperability Forum
Future webinars in this series will include:
- Improving Public Engagement
- Youth Engagement
- Enhancing Contact through Artificial Intelligence
Access to the series will be free to all members of recognised law enforcement agencies and the wider criminal justice sector.
Appropriate private sector organisations will be able to gain access to the series for a fee.
Discounted rates will be available to members of Tech UK.
Each webinar will be CPD accredited.
