3 1 Service Overview 1.1 Service Summary In a nutshell, what is it that Deloitte will do for you? This service will review the Force's current operating model for emergency and non-emergency contact and will provide recommendations that support reduced demand on call handling and command and control, improved customer satisfaction and reduced demand passed down to front line policing teams. Recommendations will be synthesized through the design of a future operating model taking into consideration the current state model and strategic imperatives for the Force. A set of initiatives will be developed that will support the transition to the new operating model and an implementation plan will be created to enable the delivery of these initiatives. Additionally, a high level business case including benefits/savings will be developed based on the opportunities for improvement. Deloitte's approach consists of working closely with the client in an integrated team, conducting interviews and listening to calls to establish the current processes and identify any inefficiencies or pain points. Alongside this we will carry out detailed data analysis call volumes and types of calls, Average Handling Times (AHT), deployments made as a result of the calls and any other relevant data to identify opportunities for change. This will inform our recommendations for how to best manage citizen contact by resolving incidents at the earliest point of contact in order to reduce costs and deliver a great service. 1.2 Business Context What situations is this service designed to be used in? This service is designed for local police forces and PCCs which face the need to make long-term, sustainable cost reductions while maintaining their service levels to the public. It is especially relevant to any PCCs and police forces that seek to reduce costs across contact management and operational policing teams or that believe they have unnecessary demand that stems from the contact management function.

4 2 Detailed Service Description 2.1 Our Approach We believe that the best outcomes will be achieved through a blended integrated team of police and Deloitte resources; combining our approach and methodology with your knowledge of your organisation. We therefore take a flexible approach to the review, depending on your objectives and preferred outcomes. Listed below are the key activities within each phase of the project: Understand the current state of Contact Management through review of existing documentation (E.g. process maps), data analysis, observation and interviews with key stakeholders (both operational and managerial and both staff and police officers); Analyse findings and highlight pain points across the end to end contact management process, including people, process and technology; Assess how pain points within the contact management process contribute to additional demand on either; contact management, or downstream functions, such as operational policing teams being deployed to incidents. Design a future operating model to overcome these challenges and reduce demand on the Force. Develop a high-level business case including benefits/savings and costs (on-going operational and project related); Create a high-level implementation plan and outline any 'quick-wins'. This service is designed to be delivered in a 6 week timeframe, and requires the support and commitment of the Police Force to work with our team, in order to meet these timescales, and accelerate your cost reduction activities. The diagram below outlines our approach in more detail: Establish current process Evaluate contact channels Understand the services provided by the contact centre Data capture Data analysis Known pain points Process assessment Incident assessment Avoidable contact Findings analysis Initiatives prioritisation log Design future state Technology Implications Benefits case Implementation Planning Identify 'quick-wins' Roadmap Current state baseline Future Model D-G4-L4-126 Police contact management and demand reduction review Deloitte LLP Service for G-Cloud IV 2

5 Phase Activity Detail Current state baseline Findings analysis Future model Implementation planning Establish current processes Evaluate contact channels Understand the services provided by the contact centre Data capture Data analysis Known pain points Process assessment Incident assessment Avoidable contact Initiatives prioritisation log Design future state Technology Implications Benefits case Identify 'quick-wins' Interview staff and managers in the contact centre and dispatch functions as well as listen to calls and make observations in the contact centre. Map the process of dealing with a call. Confirm the channels of contact currently available to the public, in what situations they can be used and understand when they are currently used. Interview staff and managers to understand what services are provided, at which point in the process and the benefit they provide. Request contact, incident and crime data. If the data does not exist, primary data capture may need to be done. Analyse the data collected to identify the types of calls that the contact centre deals with, incidents which are reported, which ones are resolve on first point of contact, which incidents are deployed to and how many officers and how much time they take to attend. Gather suggestions of improvement opportunities from staff interviews. Identify whether there are any opportunities for improvements in the current process. Identify from the data analysis which incidents drive demand on the contact centre and on front-line policing, and which of these incidents could be resolved at first point. Identify those types of contact which are avoidable and present unnecessary demand on the police force. Gather all the identified opportunities identified throughout the project into a log and prioritise those that will deliver maximum benefit for least risk. Use the identified opportunities to design a high-level future operating model for contact management. Identify the technology implications of the future model, including new channels which need to be introduced or those which need to be changed to better manage citizen contact. Use the data analysis on call volumes and incident response durations to calculate the estimated benefits of the new model. Review the initiatives log to identify any opportunities that could be implemented quickly and deliver immediate benefits.

If you are not in a position to provide all of these inputs then please get in touch to discuss options, as it is likely we can reach agreement to alter our approach to accommodate your situation. Information about existing channels and data for the use of those channels; Call handling statistics, including call volumes by incident type (and/or grade) and Average Handling Time; Incident data: system data about incidents which are deployed to; Contact Management / Command and Control strategies; Organisation charts / process maps concerned with contact management or command and control. 2.3 Your Contribution Our services are designed to be delivered with you rather than to you. We have assumed that you will be able to make the following contribution to the work. If you are not in a position to take on these responsibilities then please get in touch to discuss options, as it is likely we can reach agreement to alter our approach to accommodate your situation. Make available staff and managers within Contact Management for interviews and call listening opportunities; Make available police officers from front-line policing units for interviews, observations and potentially timeanalysis; Make resources available to provide the data required, including any resources that may be required to conduct primary data capture where necessary; Have the capability to extract call management data from existing command and control, telephony or case management systems; Providing access to the best available information about the existing situation, plans and strategies; 1 FTE within the organisation that will be the designated point of contact for our team.

7 A clear vision of how to best use the Contact Management function to manage demand on the police force Recommendations based on robust data analysis which will facilitate better decisions about the future of Contact Management 2.5 Scale and Complexity The effort involved in delivering our service is driven partly by what we will do (which we have described in section 2.1 above) and what you will do before we arrive and alongside us whilst we work (which we have described in sections 2.2 and 2.3 above respectively). It is also driven by the scale and complexity of your business situation. This section describes the scale and complexity that we have designed this service to address. If your business situation is bigger or smaller than this then please get in touch to discuss options, as it is likely we can reach agreement to alter our approach to accommodate your situation. As mentioned in our approach section above, we may need to conduct primary data capture exercises in the scenario where data does not already exist within the Force or Force IT systems. For example, data on the number of incidents police officers were deployed, the time taken to resolve the incident and any actions that followed. In a typical Police Force these sample data sets can be gathered quickly and efficiently in conjunction with the Force, but where primary data capture is required, we reserve the right to change the duration and price of this service. This service is equally applicable to a single police force or for a number of police forces who share contact management functions, or who have aspirations to do so in future. The pricing and duration provided within this service description, relates to a single force only, and we reserve the right to change the duration and/or price of this service should more than one force be involved.
