Baltimore Police Department

This policy describes the process for enrolling in the pilot program managed through Upwards, a third-party vendor.

The Baltimore Police Department (BPD) supports continuous employee improvement through behavioral tools designed to foster growth over the course of one’s career. Performance Improvement Plans (PIPs) are a preventative tool which can be used as part of BPD’s sworn performance evaluation process or independently, as part of a sworn supervisor’s continuous performance management. This policy establishes the process for initiating and conducting a PIP, and provides guidance on how to define the expectations and timelines for the completion of PIP tasks.
