Digital Policing Portfolio

The DPP is a national delivery organisation that will support the evolution of policing, enabling forces to respond and adapt to the increasingly digital world we live in. It is responsible for delivering the 'digital policing' element of the Policing Vision 2025 by developing nationally consistent services and capabilities enabled by technology. The solutions developed will enable forces to meet the changing demands of the public, more effectively prevent and investigate crime and better handle digital evidence. The services and capabilities will be developed by three key national programmes- Digital Public Contact (DPC)- providing a simple, well known and reliable digital contact service between the public and the police that ensures the public are informed and digitally enabled, such as: • Reporting and tracking online – helping to improve the police response and quality of victim support • Enabling the public to undertake financial transactions online such as firearms licensing or penalty fines- Digital Intelligence and Investigation (DII)- enabling policing to protect the public through preventing and detecting crime in a society that is becoming increasingly digital: • Improving the knowledge and skills of frontline officers and staff to address digital crime • Ensuring the specialist capability to respond to cyber-crime • Building and maintaining capabilities in the fast moving digital environment - Digital First (DF)- integrating digitised policing into the reformed Criminal Justice System, delivering the best service to the public by: • Providing all case file information and evidence, including multimedia, relevant to a criminal prosecution, digitally captured, stored and secured once in a chain of evidential integrity. • Accessibility on demand to all criminal justice partners.
