Reputational Implications
There are reputational implications in this report.
In respect of BWV, there are reputational risks associated with non-progression of the BWV IBC. Internally, these relate to staff expectations that the organisation will introduce improvements in the use of technology to support policing activities. Externally, reputational risks exist if the IBC is not progressed given national recommendations and public commitments to adopt such technology. If the IBC is progressed further risks will be created owing to the time and effort of potential suppliers in responding to the tender process and continued public expectation.
In respect of COS, Police Scotland must meet legislative and operational reporting requirements. Data transformation will ensure that the data is migrated in a way that enables and supports this reporting and data compliance. A number of legacy systems are already non-DPA compliant and as of May 2023 their non-compliance with GDPR requirements risks heavy sanctions being imposed on Police Scotland. A number of systems are also aging and end of life, with associated risk of failure.
Migration of COS data from non-compliant legacy systems into the new compliant COS platform reduces risks from litigation in relation to cost and reputational damage.
