Case Study:A National Standard for Sharing Law Enforcement Incident and Arrest Information
Standards – Why? Improve Communications Help Set Expectations Enable People and Systems to Talk to Each Other Avoid Errors and Misunderstandings Save Time and Money! 16
N-DEx - Industry Position April 2006 The benefits derived from the use of N-DEx by the contributing agencies must be commensurate with the effort necessary to participate There must be broad based use of N-DEx from the largest to the smallest agencies – including local, tribal, state and federal agencies There must be resources available to assist agencies in building the infrastructure to participate in N-DEx – these resources must include technical support, training and funding N-DEx participation must be standards based to preclude the high cost of one-off solutions Industry must have current information on the program to be able to assist client agencies in participating in N-DEx
Role of States States play a key and critical role in national reporting There are variations in state specific data elements and codes There are variations in state specific controls for retention and release of information There are currently several state-level versions of incident reporting RMS providers support multiple versions of their products to meet state specific requirements
Consequence of Having Several State-Level Versions Serves as a cost multiplier Larger initial cost to implement N-DEx nationwide Higher on-going maintenance costs Creates opportunity for delays and errors in reporting and information sharing Limits RMS options in some states
N-DEx IEPD The N-DEx IEPD has been designed with the goal of meeting the needs of local, state and tribal law enforcement agencies. It currently encompasses hundreds of data elements. Industry firmly believes that the N-DEx IEPD, properly configured, can solve the dilemma of satisfying state needs using a single national standard.
Industry Recommendation “It is therefore recommended that all states (representing their respective local agencies) adopt the N-DEx IEPD as the standard to be followed for in-state as well as national incident reporting.”
Benefits of a National Standard Less overall cost for initial system retrofit Less cost for on-going maintenance Faster implementation on a national basis Less confusion when sharing information using a common standard Fewer errors and delays in sharing information
A Voice in the Process There must be a process in place to ensure that state, local and tribal needs are met both initially and as information sharing needs evolve. Therefore… “It is recommended that the FBI provide a mechanism for states (on behalf of local agencies) to review the N-DEx IEPD and submit, via the APB, requests to add data elements particular to their state.”
The Suggested Process States formally submit request to the APB to add data elements to the IEPD Once approved by the APB, the FBI would submit the data elements to the justice XML structure task force (XSTF) for inclusion in the justice domain of NIEM
The End Result “Adoption of a single standard for all states would save law enforcement agencies in the aggregate many millions of dollars for future system acquisitions and upgrades. Perhaps more importantly, the risk to both agencies and companies would be radically reduced.”
An Update On The Process: Concept developed jointly by IJIS NIBRS/N-DEx Advisory and IPSTSC committees and submitted to IJIS Board and membership IJIS Board formally supports the process Concept presented to APB Information Sharing Subcommittee Presented to LEITSC Presented to IACP CJIS Committee Presented to and endorsed by all APB Regional Working Groups (CSOs) Presented to APB Information Sharing Subcommittee with regional endorsement Motion supporting concept passed by IACP CJIS Committee APB endorses the concept (December 2008)
Model Data Flow Incident submitted to N-DEx Flagged Incidents are copied for NIBRS before being applied to N-DEX Incident may be updated and supplemented as necessary – updates are copied for NIBRS NIBRS/UCR Edit and Statistical Programs run locally to insure data quality Incidents may be updated as necessary – all updates are treated as replacements At preset date UCR Division processes NIBRS/UCR data received via N-DEx submission
N-DEx – Getting Started Be Willing! Be Able! “Git Er Done”
The Steps: Contact FBI CJIS Liaison Specialist Contact State CSO – for coordination Process MOU with FBI/CJIS Agency will need LEO Accounts Use Computer Based Training Use N-DEx Connectivity Check List to insure that agency is ready to connect Map data to N-DEx IEPD
The Steps:(continued) Request ConTesA Account and Password Run test submission through ConTesA and resolve all error conditions Run initial N-DEx load with about 100 records After successful initial load – run a large submission – like 10,000 records After successful large submission load, submit historical data (5 years is a good goal) Submit on regular basis – daily is preferred
Lessons Learned: Mapping effort for initial agencies ranged from 80 to as much as several hundred hours Generally the mapping process will take a week or two The entire process going through planning, set-up, tests and initial data loads will probably take 4-6 months The process becomes easier and more streamlined as experienced is gained
N-DEx Cost Model Project • Develop a budgetary cost projection for national deployment • Develop a budgetary cost projections for local, regional, and state LEA’s • Establish a cost model and estimation capability • Support development of future funding requirements
Project Approach • Guided by the “contract” between CJIS and the four professional law enforcement associations. • FBI CJIS partnered with IIR and the IJIS Institute to develop the cost model • In conjunction with the N-DEx program office, IIR established the Cost Model Task Force – the voice of LE
Project Status = Complete • N-DEx Management Review August 27, 2008 • Review Initial Findings September 10, 2008 • CM Task Force Update September 24, 2008 • APB Subcommittee Update October 21, 2008 • IACP CJIS Update November 8, 2008 • Model Software to FBI December 30, 2008
Analysis and Findings • Baseline Estimated Deployment Cost • Formula – Cost Factors - Surveys • Statistical Baseline • Composite Scenarios • Per Agency Scenarios • LEA direct life cycle • LEA’s reduced life cycle cost via regional / state reporting • Extended regional / state agency life cycle cost • Other - Remote N-DEx user
Study Methodology • The Formula • Fundamental Estimation Building Block = The LEA • The Cost Factors (LOE / Rates) • The Surveys • The Process • The Model
The Model • Provides standard basis for modeling multiple cost scenarios. • Allows for the input of multiple variables • Supports the formulation / customization of LEA estimated costs at all levels • Supports the extension of averages to national deployment cost scenarios • Provides a baseline for assessing “What If” scenarios • Flexible via configuration management
