What is Managing Patrol Operations : Manual about?

The manual contains a detailed analysis and bibliography of each of the topics discussed in the workshop participant's handbook.

The political and community pressures affecting a police patrol manager are discussed. An appendix to this section provides an outlined guide for program implementation planning. The portion on resource allocation discusses equal shift staffing, identifying workload demands, equal geographic coverage, proportional need coverage, and developing a model to identify basic calls for service.
