## Notice

The MPS has purchased licencing and services to trial Palantir Foundry software to integrate diverse structured and unstructured datasets into a unified environment. The objectives are: - to bring together internal data we already hold from multiple standalone systems into a form which can be used without delay as part of our professional standards work; - to integrate back office datasets to provide enterprise reporting as part of its professional services function; and - to test if the tool can help us identify patterns, automate some analysis and reporting and support officer-led decisions.
