Datactics: Delivering Trust in Policing Data

Datactics provides the data quality and matching foundation for the UK’s new model of policing.

At the heart of the National Data Quality Improvement Service (NDQIS), Datactics operates at national scale to improve the speed, accuracy and consistency of crime classification across England and Wales.

As policing evolves towards larger forces, new Local Policing Areas and greater use of AI, forces need data they can trust across crime, intelligence and operational systems. Datactics works with the reality of UK policing environments, helping forces to:

• Clean and standardise complex, inconsistent data
• Link people, places, vehicles and entities across legacy systems using fuzzy matching
• Apply transparent, auditable rules that analysts and business users can understand and control

By reducing manual data preparation and embedding human oversight where risk or uncertainty is high, Datactics enables analysts and investigators to focus on policing, not spreadsheets. Our approach supports automation without black boxes, ensuring decisions remain explainable, defensible and accountable.

Beyond policing, Datactics also supports NHS BSA, NHS Supply Chain and leading Financial Services organisations, bringing proven resilience, security and governance to public safety data challenges.
