The Directorate of Information (DoI) is made up of two distinct business groups that work independently as well as in conjunction with one another. You can read more about each business group by clicking on the links below.

DoI Services
The DoI Services group delivers ICT solutions to support operational needs, strategic priorities and improve or upgrade our current systems and infrastructure. It includes the Command and Control (C&C) programme, which develops and enhances the technology that supports a large part of real-time operational policing - the Met’s 24/7 emergency service.Successful operational policing depends upon reliable technology systems. DoI Services group are responsible for the delivery of reliable and secure ICT through a combination of direct service provision and a number of key service suppliers.

Security, Strategy & Performance Group
Playing a lead role in the DoI’s overall strategy development, information management and technology, this group ensures that DoI strategies and activities support the Met’s corporate and policing aims. Information is the lifeblood of modern policing. The demand for instant access to information, legislative requirements and emerging technologies are driving the need for better quality information. We work to ensure that the information available to the Met is trusted, accessible and usable by all. We lead in the delivery of strategy, policy and standards for information management issues and services to the Met, our partners and the public.
