equipment
uniform
Since July 2006 the new blue uniform has been gradually introduced. This was accompanied by a change in the cut. Since mid-December 2010, all officers have been dressed in the new blue uniform .
The police in Saxony and the Berlin police also use the uniform of the Brandenburg police. A senior Brandenburg official said:
"In addition to the Brandenburg and Berlin justice systems, the Berlin police with 17,000 employees to be equipped would be one of the largest customers that the Central Procurement Office could win."
vehicles
In the course of the color change, patrol cars and emergency vehicles in the color scheme blue-silver and blue-white were introduced. The first blue and silver patrol cars were handed over to the motorway police in mid-2002 . The color scheme was only introduced nationwide in 2005.
New vehicles are registered with license plates in the form “BBL 4-XXXX”, where “BBL” stands for “Brandenburg, state government and state parliament”. The reason for this change was the abolition of the official registration number on March 1, 2007.
The Brandenburg Police have been using Opel Zafira vehicles in the color scheme of blue-white-yellow as interactive patrol cars since 2015 . VW Touran patrol cars have also been in use since the end of 2017 . The color scheme here corresponds to the blue and white foil with neon yellow warning stripes already used on the Opel Zafira. Some patrol cars are printed with advertisements for starting a career in the Brandenburg police.
Almost all patrol cars are now "interactive", so they can display current missions on an integrated monitor. Navigation to the scene of the incident, the display of neighboring patrol cars, the operation of signals such as blue lights or "stop police" as well as the on-site punishment of warnings via a pin pad are possible. The interactive patrol car works via signals from the BOS digital radio, UMTS and LTE as well as various interfaces to the vehicle electronics.

history
On October 11, 1991, the Ministry of the Interior in Potsdam issued the ordinance on the police headquarters of the newly founded state of Brandenburg. This came into force on November 1st and provided that the newly formed Brandenburg Police were divided into six police headquarters (PP).
- Oranienburg police headquarters with the protection areas Prignitz , Ostprignitz-Ruppin , Oberhavel and Havelland .
- Police headquarters in Eberswalde with the protection areas Prenzlau , Schwedt , Eberswalde and Bernau .
- Police headquarters Frankfurt (Oder) with the protection areas Frankfurt / Oder, Märkisch-Oderland and Oder-Spree .
- Police headquarters in Cottbus with the protection areas Cottbus, Spree-Neisse , Oberspreewald-Lausitz and Elbe-Elster .
- Police headquarters in Potsdam with the protection areas Potsdam, Brandenburg / Havel , Dahme-Spreewald and Teltow-Fläming .
- Police headquarters of the water police with the water police stations in Wittenberge , Lehnitz , Brandenburg / Havel, Potsdam, Königs Wusterhausen , Erkner , Eisenhüttenstadt and Hohensaaten .
In addition, there was the State Criminal Police Office in Basdorf and the State Task Force (riot police) in Potsdam-Eiche.
This structure remained in effect until the police reform on July 1, 2002. Then the first police reform was implemented under the then Interior Minister Jörg Schönbohm . The central content of this reform was the amalgamation of the previous six police headquarters into two headquarters in Potsdam and Frankfurt (Oder). The police headquarters in Oranienburg, Eberswalde and Cottbus were dissolved and the protection areas, as well as the offices of the former PP Water Police, were divided between the two remaining PP. The protection areas Prenzlau and Schwedt were combined to form the new protection area Uckermark, and Eberswalde and Bernau to form the new protection area Barnim. The following structure came into force.
- Police headquarters in Frankfurt (Oder) with the protection areas Uckermark, Barnim, Märkisch-Oderland, Frankfurt (Oder) / Oder-Spree, Dahme-Spreewald, Cottbus / Spree-Neisse and Oberspreewald-Lausitz.
- Police headquarters in Potsdam with the protection areas Prignitz, Ostprignitz-Ruppin, Oberhavel, Havelland, Potsdam, Brandenburg an der Havel, Teltow-Fläming and Elbe-Elster.
The State Office of Criminal Investigation moved from Basdorf to Eberswalde, while the State Task Force (riot police) remained in Potsdam-Eiche.
The renewed reform of the Brandenburg Police is based on the plans of Interior Minister Rainer Speer, who was in office from 2009 to 2010 . On January 1, 2011, the first step of the police structural reform “ Police Brandenburg 2020 ” was implemented and
- the state criminal investigation office (previously a higher state authority),
- the police headquarters in Potsdam and Frankfurt (Oder) (previously two lower regional authorities ) and
- the national operational unit (previously an institution of the country)
combined into a police headquarters - as the higher regional authority - with its seat in Potsdam. The reform " Police Brandenburg 2020 " should lead to the fact that the number of posts and posts in the police can be reduced to 7,000 by the end of 2019. The Presidium, which was created on January 1, 2011, was temporarily divided into four areas: Area 1 (former PP F / O), Area 2 (former PP P), Area 3 (former LKA), Area 4 (READING).
The current structure was introduced on December 1, 2011.
Others
The Brandenburg Police has been operating an e-government portal since 2002 - the Internet watch, where you B. can file criminal charges online or make reports relevant to the police. There is also the possibility to view speed camera photos of committed administrative offenses and to fill out forms to identify the driver or to be heard directly online.
There are around 200 security partners along the Polish border and in the vicinity of Berlin . In contrast to the voluntary police services or security guards in other federal states, there is no training for the security partners in Brandenburg and the service is carried out unarmed.
