TRANSMEDIA COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED

The Seychelles Police Department wanted a custom app that would serve not only as a repository for case information, but also as a way to help solve cases. The app would replace
a parallel system of manual record keeping and a database based on older technology. Transmedia’s starting point for app development was digitising the intake form for incident reports, which serve as the record of a single crime. Recording as many facts as possible before memories fade and evidence is lost is critical to effective case management. Nick Stockbridge, Transmedia’s Director of Development, interviewed senior commanders and serving detectives to further scope the project. Members of the police force asked for as much flexibility in search as possible. As the app was developed, police officers in different roles were given the opportunity to test it and refine requirements.The guiding principle was to build an app that could progress a case from start to finish and robust enough to be used in court
