GovMetric CX enables police forces to capture, analyse, and act on victim feedback at every stage of the victim journey, ensuring compliance with inspection regimes and improving the overall victim experience.
Measuring victim satisfaction is a regulatory requirement for forces. It ensures victims’ voices are heard, informs HMICFRS inspections, supports the Victims’ Code, and builds trust and confidence in policing.
Feedback is captured across multiple channels: SMS, email, IVR, web forms, and mediated phone surveys. Timing can be automated via integrations with RMS/CRM systems (e.g. ControlWorks) to ensure surveys are triggered at the right moment.
Forces receive:
• Quantitative data on satisfaction levels
• Qualitative insights from free-text feedback
• Sentiment analysis via NLP
• Real-time alerts on negative responses
• Dashboards for trends by service area, crime type, or journey stage
