Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to examine critical issues and challenges that are related to the application of technology to improve the management of police organizations.

Based on the analysis of managerial concepts, the study provides discussions about risks of technology and human factors, resource limitation, professional attitude and culture, privacy concerns, citizen video and social media, and public trust.
Findings
The study concludes with suggestions to examine police technology application from a broad perspective to address not only technology operational issues but also related organization, management, community and policy concerns.
Originality/value
Findings of this study contribute to the understanding of technology application, contribution and limitation in public management.
