OForce

A police‑ready Blueprint for Cloud Transformation

OForce is de Novo’s preconfigured, policing-specific blueprint for Oracle Cloud. Shaped through experience of UK police implementation, it brings familiar processes, terminology and user journeys into the programme from the outset. This gives forces a more relevant starting point for design, helps staff engage with the future solution earlier and supports clearer decisions throughout delivery.

The blueprint

Policing context, not just technology

Where the underlying platform provides the technology, OForce provides the policing context, the user experience, and the transformation confidence needed to make it a success.

A more relevant starting point for policing

OForce starts with processes, structures and workflows already shaped around the realities of UK policing.

Staff instantly recognise:

  • policing terminology
  • role-based workflows
  • pay and allowances patterns
  • procurement and operational processes
  • volunteer, officer, and staff-specific journeys

Seeing relevant, working examples early helps users understand how the future solution could support their roles. This can build confidence, surface questions sooner and support clearer, better-informed decisions throughout the programme.

This can reduce uncertainty around change and help teams make quicker, better-informed decisions.

More than a technical implementation

With OForce, de Novo delivers more than a successful technical implementation; we deliver a better everyday experience for your people:

Less administrative burden

Reduced stress during change

Improved decision-making

The result is a workforce better equipped to use the solution confidently, supported by more consistent processes, clearer information and less avoidable administration. Exact benefits will depend on each force’s starting point and priorities, so we agree outcome measures early and track them through delivery and adoption.
