Proposal for a Police Department Staffing Needs Assessment San Leandro, CA <br /> <br />Matrix Consulting Group Page 15 <br />These initial interviews will focus on determining individual attitudes toward current law <br />enforcement services and organizational considerations, including the following topics: <br /> <br />• Adequacy of existing service levels. <br />• Responsiveness to community priorities and other service needs. <br />• Perceived gaps in existing service levels, resources, and programs. <br /> <br />The project team will also begin to collect various documents, including departmental <br />goals, vision, and objectives statements, as well as other organizational materials and <br />budgetary documents. <br /> <br />As a result of this task, the project team will develop a current state assessment of the <br />organization. The project team will document its initial understanding of the Department, <br />its service levels, staffing, and service environment in a descriptive profile of the San <br />Leandro Police Department. <br /> <br />A primary aim of developing the current state assessment is to provide a foundation for <br />subsequent analysis by ensuring the accuracy of our assumptions and understanding of <br />key details. We will provide the following information for each unit within the Department: <br /> <br />• Current (filled) and authorized staffing levels by classification <br />• Deployment of field services, including for patrol, including visualization tables <br />showing the current shift schedule, including the number of personnel assigned. <br />• Key responsibilities and duties for each unit, command staff, and unique role <br />within the department. <br />• Organizational structures and reporting relationships. <br />• Scope of services provided by support functions. <br /> <br />The draft document will be reviewed with the project team, with corrections and revisions <br />being made thereafter. This document will serve as the foundation of our understanding <br />of the organization. <br /> <br /> TASK RESULT <br /> <br />A current state assessment will be created, detailing the staffing, organizational <br />structure, and deployment schedules of the Department, as well as any key <br />characteristics of the service environment.
