Improving Knowledge Sharing Across UK Policing

In 2017, South Yorkshire Police was awarded funding from the Home Office to deliver a National Problem Solving and Demand Reduction Programme to help transform ways of working across policing. One of the biggest challenges identified was the lack of a central knowledge sharing platform for police forces to look to for best practice and to share information, processes and documentation.

The Police ICT Company teamed up with South Yorkshire Police to optimise and develop new features on the Knowledge Hub to support the sharing of problem-solving knowledge and notable practice across policing.
