  • "Five Police Forces - Surrey, Lincolnshire, North Wales, South Wales and Humberside have recently contracted to put in new knowledge management systems for delivering timely and accurate information to the press and public.

    The system they've chosen is Solcara PressBureau, which is being put in to help their media relations� teams to manage, access and disseminate press information.

    The aims of the software projects are to improve communication between the Police force and its public, ensure consistency of message, reduce costs by eliminating the need for paper records, maintain an accurate archive for recall during disputes or tribunals and act as the central resource for the creation of best practice and knowledge sharing.
