Constitutional Amendment 19/98 included the Principle of Efficiency in art. 37 of the Federal Constitution, being mandatory by the public administration. In addition, in view of the tendency to reduce the number of police officers, with no perspective of change, it is essential that the police manager knows and applies methodologies to qualify the service of his staff. The objective of this study is to analyze the application of the SIGA Method of embedded technology in areas with the highest occurrence of crimes and its impact. The methodology is quantitative in nature, being an exploratory case study in the 20th Military Police Battalion in Rio Grande do Sul and also a bibliographic and documentary review. The results show that there was a 12.4% reduction in crime indicators in the area of application of the SIGA Method, while outside that area there was an increase of 4.4%. Regarding the impact of applying the SIGA Method on crime indicators, it appears that, between the area of application of the Method and outside it, there was a difference of more than 16% in crime indicators. The crime indicators that were reduced after the application of the SIGA Method were: theft by pedestrians, theft and theft of vehicles, theft by commercial establishments and intentional homicide. Our conclusion implies that the SIGA Method corresponds to a means of guiding the operational management of an ostensive police corporation regarding the number of police officers that should be allocated, based on crime indicators.
