Law enforcement outsourcing

Law enforcement outsourcing refers to the practice of hiring private companies or external agencies to perform certain police functions or services, such as security, investigations, or traffic control. This approach allows local police departments to focus on core duties while leveraging specialized expertise and resources from the private sector. Outsourcing can enhance efficiency and reduce costs but also raises concerns about accountability, oversight, and the quality of services provided. The goal is to supplement public safety efforts without fully replacing traditional police work.
