Proposal for a Police Department Staffing Needs Assessment San Leandro, CA <br /> <br />Matrix Consulting Group Page 17 <br />(2) Input from Police Department Personnel <br />Input from within the Police Department is also critical to understanding issues regarding <br />service delivery and alternatives. Additionally, their views are instrumental in helping to <br />understand the greater context of police-community relations. While many employees <br />will be individually interviewed, the project team will develop and administer an online <br />employee survey to obtain input on key issues directly within the scope of this study. <br /> <br /> TASK RESULT <br /> <br />The project team will gather community and employee input to better understand <br />their views on Police Department response and alternatives. <br /> <br />Task 3 Develop an Understanding of the Police Department <br /> <br />While this is not a ‘staffing study, the project team will need to develop a basic <br />understanding of the department, its service levels, staffing, and service environment in <br />a descriptive profile. A primary aim of developing the descriptive is to provide a <br />foundation for subsequent analysis by ensuring the accuracy of our assumptions and <br />understanding of key details. For each divisions and units within the department, the <br />descriptive profile will detail <br />• Mission, vision and goals of the department. <br />• Current (filled) and authorized staffing levels by classification. <br />• Key responsibilities and duties for each unit. <br />• Organizational structures and reporting relationships. <br />• Policies and training <br />• Programs and services. <br /> <br />The draft document will be reviewed with the project team, with corrections and revisions <br />being made thereafter. <br /> TASK RESULT <br /> <br />The project team will develop a descriptive profile of current staffing, operations, <br />workloads and service levels. The document will be provided to the Police <br />Department for review and corrected based on those reviews. <br />
