The Policing Portal, developed in association with ACPO and NPIA, has been designed to not only allow forces to reduce the costs of IT purchase but also to more efficiently manage their IT estate. The portal brings together in a single location a number of administration and planning tools giving you proactive management over your IT communications estate allowing you to place orders, managing faults and make the most of your existing infrastructure. As every policing organisation throughout the UK is under pressure to increase efficiencies, you can be confident you’ve got a resource that can make a real difference.
Money saving – The Policing Portal amalgamates all the purchases made by UK forces into one single account, so that you always get to enjoy the best discounts available. There are no constraints on what you purchase, or when you purchase.
Analyse communications – Powerful analytical tools and reports give a strategic overview of your entire communications estate. You can then see where you could improve your technology, as well as where to make additional savings. For example, you can automatically highlight changing phone calling usage patterns and see where you need to make any changes or where you could make cost savings.
Time saving – Get email notifications as soon as your bill is ready; you don't have to wait for your paper invoice to arrive. And you don't even need to import your data into BT Billing Analyst, as we’ve already uploaded it for you.
Doing your bit for the environment – With everything online you have complete control over what, and when, reports are printed. As well as reducing time and costs, this can make a dramatic contribution to your environmental policy.
