“Replacing the ageing dual deck tape machines was critical to ensuring the continued quality and security of evidence. By choosing a solution, based on the forces’ digital vision, business needs and technical specification, we have been able to ensure and enhance the quality and security of evidence, reduce overheads and promote greater collaboration across the four forces in the East Midlands region.”
Simon Senior, East Midlands Regional IT at Transformation Programme Manager
