The National Intelligence Model

More about the book

This report, commissioned under the second round of the Targeted Policing Initiative, presents the findings of a 21-month study of early experiences of implementation of the National Intelligence Model (NIM). The research was focused mainly on three forces which were originally chosen as 'development sites' to act, under close guidance from a national implementation team, as pilots for a general 'roll-out' of the NIM. In the event, the national team did not acquire sufficient resources to fulfil this role, and in the meantime other forces began their own implementation of the Model, so the TPI project did not proceed as planned. Nevertheless, the research produced a good deal of information about the experiences of three very different forces in trying to put the NIM into practice, as well as about broader developments across the country. All forces are now required to become NIM compliant by April 2004, and it is hoped that this report will allow other forces to draw on these experiences in developing and carrying out their own implementation strategies... -- Publisher.
