Case Study: Belgian Federal Police solves crimes faster with Microsoft Corporation

Belgian police move into the digital age nationwide, solve crimes faster with Microsoft 365

The Belgian Federal Police needed to modernize its nationwide work environment so officers could collaborate securely, access information on the move, and solve crimes faster. To support this digital transformation, the organization chose Microsoft Corporation and Microsoft 365 E3, along with tools such as Teams, Office 365, Yammer, and Windows 10, to build a more connected and efficient policing operation.

Microsoft Corporation implemented a unified cloud-based workplace with collaboration, communication, and security services that enabled real-time knowledge sharing, remote emergency coordination, and better support for specialized units. The result has been faster investigations, improved teamwork across 55,000 employees, and stronger security and compliance, including management of 5,000 devices and support for GDPR requirements.
