Monitoring Fidelity
Engaging users in this thinking early on not only engenders buy-in but also helps guide the development of performance measures. Performance measures can help document whether the technology was implemented as intended. Indeed, implementation fidelity is the cornerstone of effective technology deployment. Institutions must train their officers on how to properly use the technology and must routinely monitor and hold them accountable.
From a researcher’s perspective, accurate documentation of the technology’s use is a necessity.
