The challenge • Indicators: • 999 Call Volumes UP circa 5% year on year for several years. • 999 Call Waiting Times (12 second Target) – In May 2018, over 9000 (1%) calls waited over 2 minutes to be answered by police. • 999 Calls ‘Abandoned’ UP 14% • Impact on 101
Why? Rising Demands on Policing Reduced Capacity of Partners Reduced staffing/increased staff turnover due to Budget Cuts Increased use of Contact Management to assess vulnerability (THRIVE) and also resolve calls for service ahead of deployment. Increased use of Mobile Devices/New Technology Increased public vigilance re CT/Safeguarding/Social Media/Fraud Staffing models, business processing and technology not keeping pace with demands 101 successfully branded, but partners have stepped away It’s sunny! It’s coming home!
