  17. Develop and UsePerformance Measures • Can performance in accomplishing goals and objectives be demonstrated quantitatively?

  18. Analyze Information Exchange • Have existing information exchanges been documented and analyzed? • Have automated information exchanges been designed?

  20. Create a SoundIntegration Architecture • Is there agreement at the conceptual level among justice agencies concerning the model of integration that will be adopted?

  21. Develop the Infrastructure • Have adequate communications networks and computing and application development environments been established?

  22. Improve Agency and Organization Applications • Do justice organizations operate case and records management applications that are compatible with the chosen integration architecture? • Are all relevant agencies able to connect their applications to the integration infrastructure?

  23. Establish Interfaces • Are justice organizations able to pass information electronically between applications? • Query and Response • Application to Application • Subscription and Notification

  24. Milestones • Not a comprehensive evaluation of the status of an integration initiative • Simple indicator of approximate location in the process • More detailed planning information is available
