Effective patrol staffing is a persistent operational challenge for law enforcement agencies. While recruitment and retention are vital, the immediate pressure lies in optimizing deployment and managing workload efficiently with existing personnel, especially amidst widespread staffing constraints. This presentation equips you with the evidence-based framework essential for today’s law-enforcement environment.

Patrol operations consume substantial resources, yet staffing decisions frequently rely on institutional habits or simplistic metrics rather than solid data analysis. This can lead to inefficient resource allocation, burnout, and deployment strategies misaligned with actual community demand. In an era of tight budgets and staffing shortages, the need for sophisticated, data-driven deployment strategies has never been more critical. Agency leadership is uniquely positioned to champion this transformation.

This workshop provides a practical application of analytical techniques specifically for patrol staffing. We address the crucial question: How do we measure and analyze the specific demands on patrol deputies and use that data to inform effective deployment to achieve strategic organizational goals?
