I NTRODUCTION The Fort Worth Police Department FY2017 - FY2021 Strategic Plan was developed in 2016 to guide decision making for the following five years. The plan identified departmental and community priorities, established S.M.A.R.T. goals (specific, manageable, achievable, realistic, and time bound), action items to achieve the goals, and assigned persons in the organization responsible for implementation. Twenty - three goals and 142 action items were created based on the four Strategic Directions that form the foundation of the plan. This report includes details about the final implementation progress of the following four Strategic Direction goals and action items.

Professionalism and Organizational Excellence refers to maintaining the standards of behavior that align FWPD ’ s actions and attitude with the department ’ s mission, vision, and core values. The purpose of specifying these standards of behavior is to give FWPD employees guidance in understanding their role in the department ’ s success.
Community Engagement and Partnerships is working with stakeholders to collaborate and build trusting relationships, to reduce crime, and improve the health of the community.
Operational Improvements advance the delivery of quality police services and enable the department to meet short and long - term goals.
Technology Development and Infrastructure Expansion refers to expanding reliance upon technology that has transformed policing in many ways. New and emergent technologies have increasingly critical roles in the daily work of officers and largely dictate the probability that a
department meets the expectations of citizens.
The FY2017 - FY2021 plan also included goals specific to the operation of units within the department ’ s three bureaus: Patrol, Support, and Finance/ Personnel. This report only includes Strategic Direction implementation highlights.
