While my Master's degree is in Social Policy, I have not thought much in terms of combining policy analysis with crime analysis and intelligence analysis until recently. It seems to me that analysis in policing cannot be effective until it is combined with policy analysis.
There are different views of policy analysis and it has its own version of cycles. Since crime and intelligence analysis is only effective if it influences a change in policing policies, from the micro to the macro level, I think analysts and related experts need to become aware of how policy works and how to influence it.
