figure out timesheet updates, for example, that could help lower overtime or sort of improving the systems within NYPD.

Jessica Tisch

So, you know, I spent a lot of my career building IT systems at the department, and we are always interested in modernizing both our operational and administrative systems.

Jessica Tisch

I will say that we have been doing a lot of operational work on IT.

Jessica Tisch

In terms of IT development, we have a new 311 system for the department that's going to come out.

Jessica Tisch

It's coming out now-ish.

Jessica Tisch

We're digitizing the command log.

We will look seriously at where we can put IT resources to update administrative systems as well.

That's not a guarantee that it will be done, but I take the feedback and we will look for opportunities to do that.

Linda Lee

Perfect.
