In a one-week period starting on October 29 2006, almost two thousand civilian visitors inspected 471 police stations in 23 countries around the globe. This unique global event was organized by Altus to assess the quality of service delivered in the participating police departments, to identify some of the best practices in use by police, and to strengthen the accountability of police to the local citizens whom they serve.
The visitors use a special kit developed by Altus to guide their visit, following protocols that are the same around the world. Immediately after each visit, the visitors answer 20 questions about what they observed. Altus collects the scores over a secure web site and verifies them. The scores are based on visitors’ individual perceptions about the police stations. Expectations for police service vary across countries and within localities. |

As a result, the scores measure the extent to which visitors perceive the police in particular stations to be meeting or even exceeding local expectations in globally comparable areas of service.
