In addition to pushing officers to be more proactive in the fight against crime, he introduced new performance measures that monitored managers’ plans for action and such action’s results. Prior to these measures, and in other police organizations across the country, work had been gauged in terms of effort (e.g., how many 911 calls were answered).
