Devon and Cornwall police was one of just eight forces who were told they needed to make improvements by the policing watchdog, HMIC.
That means that it has been downgraded, in last year's report they were rated as 'good.'
Deputy Chief Constable Bill Skelly says they are working hard with the Police and Crime Commissioner to put new plans in place.
