Summary
The Investigation Plan and Investigation Management System
is the best method to every police officer particularly investigator in
applying the Investigation Plan and Management System or IPMS
for the preparation in conducting criminal investigation and follow up
operation in a thorough investigation for the immediate solution of a
crime incident and the filing of criminal case in court against the

the Chief of Office/Unit as a guide or tool in a case build
up/conference and addressing Higher Offices the status and the
situation of a crime incident that occured as well as for Media
presentation if directed.
