Honestly, that would have been a telephone report for a lot of places, including us, prior to COVID protocols. There are a few runs we're not responding to any longer that we used to, notably property damage only crashes, and even that has been SOP for some places for years prior just due to manpower issues.
I hope our brass learns a few things from this:
1) We don't need daily roll calls. Letter day changes is plenty and the way things Used To Be (tm) before knee jerking made it daily.
2) Supervisors can do everything from their car they can do in the office with few exceptions.
3) A lot of things we currently do on paper can be done more betterer electronically. People who want paper copies can print them. Says the guy who just printed the slate because I like a paper copy but recognizes he's out of touch with technology.
4) Logistics don't have to be centralized. We are quite capable of managing distribution of consumable items at the district level. I have not seen any evidence of people taking more than their allotment as I think everyone understands the need to make sure their buddies have access as well.
5) A lot of what we use sworn officers for could be accomplished by non-sworn civilians (which, btw, city ordinance says is supposed to be minimized) and a lot of what we respond to doesn't actually require a response. I'd like to see response time data for serious runs, although of course proactive stats are going to be tanked since we aren't supposed to be doing much of that.
6) We actually were pretty prepared for this with few exceptions. Honestly, the Super Bowl years back probably contributed a lot to that. We got a bunch of PPE and equipment in case of Large Scale Shenanigans, which luckily didn't occur. I have multiple masks and a full marshmallow suit in my trunk.
7) Making a single point of contact, something of an ongoing incident commander, could have been done a bit earlier and saved some confusion as multiple layers of brass tried to Do Something (tm) and were sometimes contradictory. It didn't take long to sort it out, though.
All told, I've been pretty satisfied with how the admin has handled things.
