Peregrine Technologies presented by Deputy Chief Bolton.

All right.

Good evening, Mayor, Council members.

I'm here with representatives from Peregrine Technologies to represent a data integration platform to help the Joel Police Department, the city, and our residents to get more value from the technology we already own.

The goal of this recommendation is straightforward to connect our existing systems into a single operational view, allowing us to solve crimes faster, improve transparency and accountability, and to better support officer wellness.

The recommendations come after closely reviewing how we operate today, uh where we lose time and how we can better leverage the city, leverage the city's current investments.

To be clear, we currently do not have any system that allows us to do this.

Now these connections are made in seconds, helping us identify the leads faster in improving the state's attorney's I'm sorry, provide the state's attorney with organized court ready evidence.

Currently, we lack the ability to visually to visualize crime trends in real time without manual reporting.

With Paragram, we can view crime data by council districts, NLPT areas, specific neighborhoods, using live data.

This allows us to respond more effectively to residents' concerns with accurate real-time information.

This assists us strategically, specifically with redistricting our sectors and NOPT boundaries.

By analyzing the data, we can ensure that our patrol sectors are balanced and efficient.

This assures that we are assigning officers exactly where the workload demands rather than relying on historical guesses.

Internally, the system also supports officer wellness through an early intervention system by monitoring data points like critical incident exposure, internal affairs data, and sick time usage.

Leadership can identify risk trends early and provide support before these issues escalate, helping us prevent burnout and reducing liability.

This is not replaced supervision or policy.

It simply provides earlier visibility.

Kind of an example is you know, in law enforcement, we see a lot of things.

You know, we see the worst of things, we see crashes, you know, or you know, babies, you know, um you know, pass away or children, you know, even our recent um tragic incident that we had.

You know, these officers are sitting there going there day to day and they see this, and it affects them.

We've done uh a tremendous amount of work to sit there and make sure that we take care of our officers.

Um but sometimes they're not getting the help they need, and you know, we need things to sit there and kind of track what they're doing.

So part of this wellness thing is very important because we're now we would be able to track the type of calls that certain officers have gone on compared to their sick bank if they're calling a lot of time, even to their discipline to the fact that maybe they're not dealing with what they've dealt with over time.

So, again, this is gonna be a very, very helpful tool.

And kind of going back, and I know I'm kind of going off the script here, but even going back to this data mapping here, uh looking at how we visualize data within the city, crime calls or service, we'd be able to do this in a very visual format, and we'd be able to answer questions about what's going on in neighborhoods in a more reliable and more uh up-to-date fashion, you know, without having to sit there and rely on someone else to pull the data for us.

We'd have it readily available to us.

I'm going uh back to this.

So, from an executive level, command staff can make evidence-based decisions in real time using role-based dashboards.

Um, access is strictly controlled and permission-based, ensuring that information is only available to those who need it.

Again, from a command staff standpoint, having data at our fingertips is essential.

Um, we have so many databases right now that we have to sit there and pull the information from.

We can't do a lot of our own stats, like trying to figure out the average response time, you know, to certain calls or certain areas.

Um, it takes a lot of manpower, a lot of work to do that.

This would allow us to do it pretty much instantaneously through the data integration.
