Product Owner for mobile police applications

Presentation

The BILOC business unit is responsible for all projects that are directly or indirectly related to local police work. This includes the development and support of applications designed to facilitate these tasks, such as ISLP, which allows for the drafting and management of police reports, and also FOCUS, which enables field police officers to carry out a whole series of tasks from their phone or tablet.

Project

As indicated above, FOCUS enables mobile work via smart devices. Today, this application includes about twenty modules, each allowing field police officers to perform certain tasks. The operations that can be carried out this way range from sending a simple message to colleagues to conducting a complete search on a person, a location, a company, etc., all while allowing the visualization of ongoing incidents, the geolocation of intervention units, and much more. FOCUS is an application developed by an external partner, but it is hosted by us and we have final responsibility for it. Each year, new functionalities and new modules are implemented.
