How can Comstat be used as a planning tool?
What will be an ideal response?
The Comstat focus groups gave great insight into officer's goals for themselves and management. Police officers' personal goals for the first two goals were to reduce crime, disorder, and fear and make gun arrests while they thought management wanted them to write tickets and hold down overtime. This alone should create a major base for soul searching and internal planning in the department by management in partnership with the line officers. The ten crime control and quality of life issues listed on in this discussion should provide the basis for both operational planning and some long term planning. Comstat, with its instant crime data and crime trends over time and ability to look at patterns through crime mapping, is just one tool for operational and long-term planning.
