Topics The Police Digital Service (PDS) has launched a procurement framework for social media management and engagement technology for policing, blue light services and local authorities. It has named Orlo (SocialSignIn) and Softcat, in partnership with Salesforce, as the suppliers, and said the framework will help police forces control all their corporate social media channels in one place in a safe, secure and auditable way. It should also help them to meet nationally agreed standards for social media management aligned with the National Policing Digital Strategy, and support the work of the National Police Chiefs’ Council’s (NPCC) lead for social media and digital engagement, Surrey Police Chief Constable (CC) Gavin Stephens, in developing a target operation model (TOM) for the integrated use of social media across forces.
