Author: Matrix Consulting Group Title: Police Department Comprehensive Workload Study: Kauai County, Hawaii Summary: In October, 2016 the Matrix Consulting Group began the project to conduct a Police Department Comprehensive Workload Study for Kauai County. This document is the final report of the project team's work that includes an analysis of department staffing and organizational structure and key operational elements that notably impact staffing levels. The Matrix Consulting Group is a management consulting group established in 2002 that focuses entirely on public sector analytical services and specializes in public safety services.

The Matrix Consulting Group has provided analytical services to public safety agencies for over 30 years and has conducted over 250 individual studies of law enforcement services. The Police Department desired a staffing analysis to serve as the foundation for police services in Kauai County. However, the efficiency and effectiveness of Police Department operations was also evaluated, identifying many improvement opportunities relating to service delivery, organization and staffing as summarized in the following specific study objectives: - Understand, document and analyze all workloads and service levels as well as the resources needed to handle these workloads in every function. - Compare current and alternative approaches to staffing, deployment and utilization of personnel - Ensure that community expectations are addressed and met by obtaining their input during this process. - Develop a defensible fact based analysis of resource needs. - Evaluate the choices that the Department has in meeting resource commitments. - Provide the tools necessary for Department and County personnel to evaluate needs as conditions change. The County and the Police Department undertook this important step to identify resource requirements, operational efficiencies, management and customer services goals are met.
