OACI - Crime and Management Analysis Information
The Operation Analysis Community Impact (OACI) Unit is staffed by Crime Analyst Renae Lehr, whose goal is to provide statistical and analytical support to management and operations in the areas of strategic, tactical, and administrative analysis.
Strategic analysis provides information concerning long-range problems and identifies increases and decreases in criminal activity. Tactical analysis provides information to assist operations personnel in identifying specific and immediate crime problems and for development of strategies to address those problems. Administrative analysis provides general information, such as budgeting and staffing level needs.
The crime analyst, along with the entire Police Department, is working for the people who live, work, and play in the City of Northglenn. By employing complex database applications and geographic information systems, we are able to identify and study crime patterns and trends and how they affect our community. This enables the police department to respond efficiently to make our community safer.
