Automating collaboration across public and private sectors
For effective crime prevention, collaboration with external stakeholders—like local businesses, housing associations, and utility providers—is vital. NEXT enables the police to seamlessly integrate insights across these stakeholders, automatically identifying common issues and collaboration opportunities. By harmonizing data from multiple sources into intuitive dashboards, NEXT empowers cross-sector teams to coordinate efforts swiftly and effectively, amplifying their combined impact on community safety.
"NEXT creates a common language through shared insights, making our partnerships more efficient and impactful," highlights Smilda.
Turning insights into swift operational actions
Using NEXT's Dashboards and Threads features, officers and analysts can interact directly with customer insights, instantly turning intelligence into actionable tasks. For example, identifying recurring reports about vandalism or traffic violations can automatically trigger follow-up workflows and ideas—such as tasking patrol teams, scheduling community outreach, or initiating detailed investigations. Threads integrates smoothly with existing operational tools like Jira, allowing insights to directly populate operational backlogs without delays.
“NEXT lets our teams immediately translate insights into operational steps. It’s a true game-changer for real-time policing,” says Schonfeld.
