Two female police officers are walking down the street at night. They are facing away from us, and you can clearly read their high vis vests marked 'Police'. The street is brightly lit and you can see some graffiti on the wall next to them.

Service delivery excellence

Victoria Police is on track to implement an improved service delivery model by 2025. This will be achieved through a diverse range of projects, initiatives, and programs to:

  • improve community connection
  • enhance approaches to crime prevention
  • support victims of crime and vulnerable members of the community
  • combat emerging crime trends
  • build capability in digital frontline policing systems.

An improved service delivery model will enable us to:

  • always respond in a timely manner
  • meet service demands
  • develop stronger community safety partnerships.

Our leadership focus, supported by ongoing people-focused leadership programs, will ensure managers and supervisors have the skills to lead the organisation through transformational change.

Our leaders will:

  • drive respectful and inclusive workplace culture
  • support ethical decision making that reflects our organisational values
  • model service excellence standards.

We are reforming our discipline process. The new system will deliver a more transparent, timely, accountable, and victim-centric process.

Achieving outcomes of the Equal Safe and Strong Strategy is pivotal as we work alongside the Victorian Gender Equality Commissioner. Equal Safe and Strong will improve gender equality across the organisation and reduce workplace harm.

Supporting national priorities, Victoria Police will contribute to the creation of a National Crime Intelligence System (NCIS). The system will connect law enforcement and intelligence agencies across the nation to enable information sharing on criminal activity. This streamlined system will allow police to find the information they need to keep themselves and the community safe.
