A importância da análise criminal para o planejamento operacional: um estudo de caso na 2ª unidade de segurança comunitária

Abstract

This research aimed to demonstrate the importance of crime analysis for operational planning, conducting an analysis within the 2nd Community Security Unit (CSU), in which it was observed through a case study how criminal analysis actions have been developed within the unit, as well as how this has helped in the operational planning of the unit. The relevance of the study is shown in a strategic and tactical context not only of the 2nd CSU, but every institution, as far as the criminal analysis provides information of fundamental importance in the formulation of all organizational planning. Several tools have been developed as support for criminal analysis, providing important information such as criminal statistics, criminal record, among others that involve the phenomenon of crime. However, the analysis process tirelessly seeks to answer questions like "why?", "how?" and to answer them it is necessary an analysis even more precise. Thus, the research presents a proposal for the use of analysis tools, which are widely used in administrative planning, in the context of criminal analysis, providing possibilities of action for the operational planning of the unit. In this research, questionnaires were applied with the military officers of the 2nd CSU, seeking to observe their perception of the criminal analysis process as well as its effectiveness for the operational planning of the unit. It is concluded that the planning has had a constant evolution in the area of public security and that the tools used are adjusted according to the technological advances, particularly in the 2nd CSU
