The programming is sponsored by Brother, Nuance Dragon speech recognition technology, and Tyler Technologies.

The Officer Efficiency PTE program begins 11:30 a.m. Eastern with a one-hour keynote titled "Using Technology to do More with Fewer Officers: Officer Efficiency Tools."

Presented by Division Chief Mike Wagner of the Boulder County (CO) Sheriff's Office, this case study looks at how Nuance Dragon speech recognition technology saved officers hours of time per shift.

Case study two is titled "A Deputy Police Chief Reveals e-Citation to Decrease Ticketing Times and Increase Revenue." Presented by Deputy Police Chief Jack Fahrnow of the Olathe (KS) Police Department, this case study details how the Olathe PD cut the time of its average traffic stop down to less than five minutes.

Case study three is titled "Using Technology to Allow Staff to Work Smarter, Not Harder." Presented by Lt. Jim Munro of the Clovis (CA) Police Department, this case study discusses how the Clovis PD is using iPhones to help field personnel complete tasks such as citations, field interviews, logging K-9 use, and tracking call status.
