The Evidence Behind the Outcomes Standard™
Research that Drives Agency Performance
Together with the University of Chicago, Benchmark Analytics uses data to transform officer careers and agency performance. Our solutions are built on more than 80 million data points on officer behavior, with predictive models that identify patterns and let agencies proactively address officer wellness, performance, and retention.
This is what research-based actually means, and what most competitors claiming it can’t show. With 2,500+ agencies and counting, the data grows and the models grow more precise, an advantage that compounds with scale, giving agencies deeper insight, more accurate predictions, and recommendations that make a measurable difference.
Collaborating with Experts Committed to Our Mission
Benchmark works alongside a highly regarded group of research organizations, universities, and public safety PhD academicians within the National Police Early Intervention and Outcomes Research Consortium, led by the University of Chicago.
Credentialed Partnerships
Alliances with organizations like The Joyce Foundation accelerate research and best practices for early intervention, support, and recognition.
Research-Validated Insights
We analyze that data through research-validated predictive models to uncover insights that inform outcomes, policies, and practices.
The Largest Database in the Field
Our repository of more than 80 million data points covers virtually every aspect of police operations, including the largest multi-jurisdictional officer performance database in the field.
Always-Improving Interventions
We continuously assess how well interventions are working, measuring progress and individual outcomes, and refine recommendations as new data comes in.
Closing the Knowledge Gap Around Officer Behavior
The Joyce Foundation, a key member of our research consortium, supports research into how to accurately identify and support officers showing genuine signs of risk. The foundation’s participation:
