Knowledge Solutions build on specialist police expertise by appointing Hampshire Constabulary business process guru

André Taylor brings specialist law enforcement knowledge to add value to growing police client base.

Knowledge Solutions, the leading provider of knowledge transfer and learning technologies, have appointed André Taylor as a consultant to provide in depth expertise in law enforcement business processes and systems. Taylor’s invaluable industry-specific knowledge and technical expertise will provide police forces with insider knowledge into best practices and methodologies, ensuring officers and staff get the most out of their investment in new technology.

Knowledge Solutions work with some of the most progressive police forces in the UK to ensure that officers understand and use IT systems and processes correctly. Taylor brings to Knowledge Solutions years of client-side experience dealing with the very specific and tangible issues revolving around the implementation and officer training of key IT systems such as Records Management Systems, Command and Control systems, Custody systems and other critical applications.

With the ever increasing sophistication and integration of police IT applications even minor user errors can be amplified into major, life-threatening incidents if left unchecked. By using Knowledge Solutions tools, not only are officers brought up to speed quickly and without major abstraction costs, but they are constantly reminded of best practise when they are using the systems, significantly improving the reliability and cost of maintaining critical applications.

“We are delighted to welcome André to Knowledge Solutions,” commented Adrian Palmer-Geaves, CEO, Knowledge Solutions. “His experience working with Hampshire Police adds key industry knowledge to strengthen our consulting team. By combining his specialist understanding of the police force with our decade of experience implementing systems, we will be able to provide even greater value to law enforcement agencies looking to implement IT systems and improve how existing systems and processes are used.”

Knowledge Solutions work with organisations from all industries to save them time and money when implementing new IT systems, processes and procedures. Using unique, in-house technology and experienced consultants with broad client-side experience, Knowledge Solutions are able to slash the costs and risks associated with major change programmes.
