Expanding the State of Wyoming''s Capacity to Report Incident-Based Crime Data to the FBI''s National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS)
Note:
This awardee has received supplemental funding. This award detail page includes information about both the original award and supplemental awards.
Through a competitive peer review process, State of Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation (WDCI) was awarded $531,280 to launch a comprehensive planning effort to enhance the states pipeline to ensure the states UCR program is capable of receiving and processing local incident-based crime data and has the ability to submit that information to the FBI using the current Information Exchange Package Documentation (IEPD) NIBRS submission format. The goal of the planning project funded under the initial NCS-X Phase 1 award was to analyze their states current processes, research options for implementing a NIBRS compliant state program, and develop the requirements for both the state agency and the local law enforcement agencies within Wyoming to transition to IBR reporting. The Wyoming DCI completed their Concept of Operations plan in May of 2017. That ConOps plan provided the state with the necessary steps and requirements to create a NIBRS compliant UCR program and the information necessary to transition one or more Wyoming NCS-X sampled agencies as required in the original solicitation. Based on the information determined during the ConOps planning, Wyoming DCI has determined they can transition immediately to NIBRS implementation by procuring the necessary hardware and software to stand up and effectively run an incident-based crime data repository at the state level. The current request is for a small amount of additional funding needed to obtain the necessary software and hardware required to stand up a NIBRS compliant repository.
