Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2012, $1,999,985)

The National Crime Statistics Exchange (NCS-X) Project seeks to build a nationally representative system of incident-level records on offenses known to law enforcement. The sample-based system would build upon current National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) implementations as well as other automated information exchanges that operate outside the NIBRS program, and also take advantage of the advances in the capabilities of law enforcement record management systems. NCS-X would emphasize the importance of being able to make reliable national estimates in a very short period of time, and will place a premium on being able to return meaningful information and analytical support to the law enforcement community.
