Use-of-Force Toolkit
Every use-of-force incident has the potential to undermine community trust and expose officers, and agencies, to increased risks and liability.
Traditional use-of-force solutions make it difficult to understand officer activity in context. Many agencies still rely on hybrid systems that try to bridge the gap between paper-based and digital processes. Though a step in the right direction, this approach still leaves a lot of potentially insightful data on the table.
This collection of resources is tailored to help police executives assess use-of-force technology to find the right approach to elevate their agency.

If you’re like most police executives, you:
- Struggle with paper-based reporting systems
- Wish there was a better way to analyze your officer data

In this case profile, learn how one agency’s leadership used Benchmark Analytics to address these issues while streamlining their use-of-force reporting process.
Seeing through Your Community's Eyes
Use of force by law enforcement has never been more top-of-mind for police executives and the public. The conversation has moved beyond social media to state legislation. California’s AB 392 redefines the use-of-force standard set by Graham v. Connor in 1989.
In this post we discuss ways in which researchers and policymakers have used the public lens to evaluate law enforcement. And how police executives can use that insight to work with their communities and officers.
