Empowering Law Enforcement at SAS
At SAS we would like to help police forces make more effective use of limited resources through digital tools that can relieve manual workload pressures. If police can strengthen their digital capabilities to analyse and act on intelligence, they can make better use of resources, respond faster to incidents, and make smarter decisions quickly.
Investment in AI and analytics can ensure data is put to work to improve decisioning, drive operational efficiency and improve law enforcement.

Keeping Children Safe Online
Police forces can harness technology to combat the rising tide of child sexual exploitation—protecting children from harm, catching offenders faster, eliminating backlogs, and reducing the impact of distressing cases on officer wellbeing.
Bring Predators to justice more quickly. Data from 41 UK police forces shows an 84% rise in online grooming crimes since 2017, yet prosecutions fell.
SAS has innovative technology to support investigations with more efficient and effective working practices to manage volume and protect children against Child Sexual Exploitation online.
Child sexual exploitation online investigation. Empowering officers to thoroughly investigate more cases faster for better outcomes.
The unique configurability of the SAS platform allows police forces to adapt it, as appropriate. It is an end-to-end solution, from intelligence development to investigation and is used to collect, manage and analyse information throughout the intelligence life cycle. This will accelerate desired outcomes quickly in cases such as – financial crime, organised crime and counterterrorism, child sexual exploitation and human trafficking or missing persons, for example.
Below we talk through areas that affect officers daily.
The key to protecting the public is the earliest possible identification of threat, risk and harm. Digital intelligence tools can help forces combine the data that already exists in their systems with information from a wide range of digital channels, assess the risks in real time, and take action to prevent harm before it happens.
Intelligence data can be quickly and safely shared with access based on user’s organisational responsibilities and a need-to-know basis – this enables forces to keep ahead of potential threats.
The digital world makes it easier than ever for criminals to prey on vulnerable groups. Digital intelligence and investigation management can help forces develop highly specialised analysis techniques and case management workflows to address specific issues such as child sexual exploitation (CSE), violence against women and girls (VAWG), and human trafficking.
Case files can be automatically created on incoming referrals and to prioritise investigations based in risk analysis.
Traumatic cases can often take a toll on officers’ mental and emotional health. By automatically extracting evidence from vast quantities of digital data, digital intelligence management tools and techniques such as text analytics can help limit officers’ exposure to distressing content and protect their wellbeing.
A holistic and integrated data driven approach to understand the mental health of police officers, allows professionals to analyse needs that might be required and design an effective programme to predict and plan for future needs. It is not always possible to predict but preparation is key.
