PLANS AND PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT
CHILD FATALITY SYSTEM REVIEW PROJECT Project Description - The Child Fatality Review (CFR) unit requested an enhancement to their current process to capture Medical Examiners (ME) data for child related deaths in the State of Georgia and have asked for additional reporting capabilities. Monthly Update - The developer continues coding for the application. A sizing issue with a Microsoft Excel report comments section was noted by the developer and CFR staff will decide what modifications to make to accommodate the issue. CFR staff made a request for a "demo" to be available for training purposes by the end of February. The Coroner's Report will be the walkthrough demonstration the staff uses for training.
CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT (CRM) Project Description - The CRM Application Project will provide a single source of historical interaction with GCIC external customers. The application will give GCIC end users the ability to search, track and report customer interactions throughout GCIC's business units. Monthly Update Working on UAT plan for February/March test.
DEPARTMENT OF DRIVERS SERVICES (DDS) DRIVES PROJECT Project Description - The Georgia Driver Record and Integrated Vehicle Enterprise System (DRIVES) is a system upgrade to update and enhance the title and vehicle registration functions of the Department of Revenue. The system utilizes modern technology to streamline existing processes and enable more online services. The implementation date of phase 2 is January 2021. Monthly Update Working on new web service implementation. Unisys provided NLETS link for DQ and KQ message key specifications to DRIVES team.

GEORGIA APPLICANT PROCESSING SERVICE (GAPS) PROJECT Project Description - The Georgia Crime Information Center Information Services is seeking to obtain the services of a qualified and experienced vendor to provide an applicant fingerprinting solution that will electronically capture and submit applicant fingerprints to the Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS). In addition, the selected vendor shall handle receiving fingerprint search results and disseminate the results to the requestor. Monthly Update Vendor working on issues identified by team.
GEORGIA LAW ENFORCEMENT MESSAGE SWITCH (GLEMS) Project Description - The message switch provides a means of communication between federal, state and local law enforcement agencies throughout the state of Georgia, the United States and other countries and to take advantage of new features and advances in technology, GCIC is looking to upgrade or replace this system. Monthly Update - The project team made additional changes to the Request for Proposal (RFP), and provided the documents to GTA for review and approval.
NATIONAL INCIDENT-BASED REPORTING SYSTEM (NIBRS) PROJECT Project Description - The National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS) collects data on each single incident and arrest for each offense coming to the attention of law enforcement for which specific facts about each crime is collected. GBI is in the process of replacing the current UCR summary-based system with an application that will collect incident-based data. Monthly Update - The Quality Assurance Review (QAR) Dashboard is in production and the vendor is working on the menu for crime statistics. The January 2020 Go-Live date has been changed to February 2020 due to technical programming issues.
RAP BACK PROJECT Project Description - The Rap Back project will provide the ability to receive ongoing status notifications of criminal history activity reported on individuals holding positions of trust. Georgia's Rap Back System will include the retention of applicant fingerprints, the implementation of an FBI Rap Back Subscription on such prints, and the creation of a validation process for authorized entities to manage such subscriptions. Monthly Update - Vendor integration testing began this month. AFIS integration testing Cycle 1 is scheduled to take place in February and will focus on testing the workflow, followed by testing the workstation application.
