POLICE MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION is related with administration in
an organizational environment. Management pertains to the utilization of available
resources in an organization while administration refers to the processes used. The
organization with management and administration is directed towards the
achievement of goals and objectives. Goals are broad statements of general and
long term organizational purposes often used to define the role of the police, for
instance, to prevent crime, maintain order or help solve community problems.
Objectives are specific short term statements consistent with an organization’s goal.
Both goals and objectives are important because they help to identify the
expectations of what the police are doing and how productively (efficient and
effective) they perform. Police Productivity and Managerial Performance An effective
police manager must be concerned with the productivity of police work teams and
their members. Productivity means the summary of measures of the quantity and
quality of police work performance achieved, with resource utilization considered.
Good police managers establish and support the conditions needed to ensure high
productivity for themselves, for individual contributors, for their work units, and for the
organization as a whole. This involves a commitment to the accomplishment of two
different, but complimentary, police performance outcomes: Police Effectiveness,
which measures whether or not important task goals are being attained Police
Efficiency, which measures how well resources are being utilized. 

Police Management Processes The management process involves Planning –


Organizing – Leading – Controlling the use of organizational resources to achieve
high performance results. Planning – is the process of setting performance
objectives and identifying the actions needed to accomplish them? Organizing – is
the process of dividing the work to be done and coordinating results to achieve a
desired purpose. Leading – is the process of directing and coordinating the work
efforts of other people to help them accomplish important task. Controlling – is the
process of monitoring performance, comparing results to objectives and taking
corrective action as necessary.
