Case Study: Anaheim Police Department achieves streamlined scheduling, reduced overtime and improved officer safety with InTime

How Anaheim PD streamlined their event management and court & subpoena process

The Anaheim Police Department, the largest city police department in Orange County with 600 employees (400 sworn), relied on Excel, Word and paper processes to manage scheduling, events and court/subpoena assignments. That manual approach created risks and inefficiencies: limited visibility into total hours worked (threatening compliance with their 16‑hour fatigue rule), lost subpoenas and untimely court notices that generated unnecessary overtime, and time‑consuming event staffing coordination. Anaheim PD began using InTime through the ILJAOC in 2006 and expanded the platform to all employees starting in 2019–2020.

InTime delivered an intelligent, rule‑based scheduling and automated court/subpoena management system with web and smartphone access, real‑time schedule updates, and twice‑daily subpoena notifications. By encoding the 16‑hour fatigue rule, automatically updating schedules when officers confirm subpoenas or call‑offs, and enabling fast event signups and leave approvals, InTime reduced unnecessary overtime, eliminated paper processes, saved days of administrative work, and improved pandemic-era tracking of sick leave—allowing Anaheim PD to use its personnel far more efficiently.
