Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Guardian provides a format for meaningful reviews of Use of Force, Pursuits and officer involved motor vehicle crashes. It also serves as our Early Warning System software to track officer complaints, tardiness use of force and other categories that may point to an officer being at risk. We will also do monthly performance reviews utilizing Guardian, so that supervisors can map an improvement plan for a given officer, and report on follow-up to that plan. But our most common use of Guardian is to note exceptional performance. Officers respond well when they see comments from supervisors telling them they did a good job.

Pros

  • Immediate access to employee performance
  • Allows only members who are affected and their superiors access to employee performance
  • Keep administration aware of entries with immediate email reminders that an entry has been made on an employee.

Cons

  • There should be a means to edit the entry after you have saved it. Sometimes the writer will make an error in spelling and it's permanently saved to the record. Minor issue.
  • Easier way to save entries to your desktop (for proofs).

Return on Investment

  • It gave our department an Early Warning System where none existed.
  • It made it easier to recognize commendable performance
  • It made it easier to track and remedy unsatisfactory performance.
