Vigilant Research's latest report is an examination of the current state and resourcing of technology futures operations within the UK police service.

As part of the Digital Policing Review, Vigilant Research has published a report on Technology Futures Operations. This research was proposed by the National Police Technology Council, and it examines the current state and resourcing of technology futures operations within the UK police service, considers operating models for the capability within comparable businesses and the technology industry, categorises and sets out policing’s technology futures requirements, reviews the external sources of technology futures insight and proposes appropriate objectives for a centralised police technology futures capability.

The paper confirms that the service has much to gain from technology futures insight which is shaped by the police technology community and suggests some proposals for improving capability by harmonizing operations to which technology futures activities are well suited.
