MILLBURN, NJ – John Scruggs, Manager of Matrix Consulting Group, presented the results of their police staffing study last week. He began by saying that they have been in business for 23 years and have worked in 45 states. He added that their work is fact and data-based. Matrix used the police’s Computer Dispatch Data (CAD) for 2023.
“We also looked at their caseloads, fixed payroll, income reports and those kinds of things. We do all this data collection at the same time, and we’re also doing a bunch of interviews. So, we interviewed many members of the police department, asked them about their civic roles, things they are doing, and the programs the police department is involved in.”
Scruggs mentioned that his company implemented an anonymous online survey. He noted that the analysis also covered future needs, projecting out to 2034. Please click HERE to see the entire slideshow.
