Law enforcement is a sector that is incredibly important in the modern day. For law enforcement to remain highly effective, officers and investigators must be continuously striving to develop their abilities in relation to intelligence development.
Intelligence is the process of obtaining and developing information to be utilised in crime analysis to resolve minor and major crimes. The process of intelligence development is extensive, yet essential. For effective intelligence development, there needs to be a full understanding of the sources of information and ensuring their reliability. With a balance of open, closed and informant sources, there can be a vast amount of information to analyse that can be used to solve the case.
This intelligence must be analysed and disseminated to progress onto the stage of crime analysis. Utilising various methods and techniques, crime analysis can create a comprehensive profile on the suspected individual or group that can lead to their arrest.
Not only does effective intelligence ensure criminals are being removed from the streets, it also ensures human, technical and financial resources of the organisation are being correctly used and can greatly reduce waste.
