2. AUDITS:

During the reporting month there were 13 full service audits conducted. There were 19 on-site audits conducted for agencies obtaining "inquiry only" from the CJIS network; 43 criminal justice E-Audits; 32 non-criminal justice audits; and 24 fingerprint/disposition audits. The total number of audits conducted during FY2011: 666.

3. TRAINING:

GCIC personnel provided 352 hours of training to 2,512 criminal justice agency employees during the month.

4. AFIS REPLACEMENT Project Description: GCIC is replacing the Georgia Bureau of Investigation's 22 year old Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS). The AFIS replacement enhances fingerprint identification services to permit identification of criminals more rapidly through the use of state of the art alternative search methods and information sharing.

Monthly Update: Weekly AFIS Replacement Project Manager and Monthly Executive status meetings are held to assure that the project remains on track. An updated dashboard was provided to the GTA Critical Project Review Panel for May.

A payment of $75,000.00 was made to NEC for the finalization of the Conversion, Training and Project Plans. The Statement of Work (SOW) is in the second review stage by GBI staff. Training of GBI central site employees and the 28 AFIS remote agencies is scheduled to begin in January and continue through February 2012.

GEMA did not approve the request to use the remaining grant funds from the AFIS Replacement Project to purchase local remote site agencies an upgraded workstation. The requested "views" from CBM Archives of the existing image archive system has been provided however, there are discrepancies with the views and CBM is taking corrective action.

5. SEX OFFENDER REGISTRY REDESIGN PROJECT Project Description: Georgia's Sex Offender Registry (SOR) was created in 1996 and the purpose of the SOR is to provide law enforcement with an efficient and effective method of monitoring sex offenders. In 2010, the Georgia Department of Audits and Accounts Performance Audit Operations conducted an audit on the Georgia SOR and their findings indicated that the SOR is an outdated and inflexible computer system; the registry does not fully meet the needs of law enforcement monitoring and investigating sex offenders and that the public website should provide more complete and accurate information. The information contained in the audit validated issues GBI had noted for some time regarding the need to improve and modernize the SOR.

To remedy the current database limitations, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) seeks to modernize and replace the SOR using web technologies, which will allow GBI to accommodate requests from sheriffs and other customers. Moving to web technologies will ensure greater flexibility for the State to incorporate future updates or enhancements as dictated by state or federal legislation, operational needs, or public demands. Increased capabilities would also allow the sex offender database to link to other databases to help improve record accuracy or offender tracking, such as address verification or developing a link with the Department of Corrections for information on re-incarceration of offenders. Offender images would be stored in a format allowing sharing with the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) National Crime Information Center (NCIC) Convicted Sex Offender File for use by all criminal justice agencies throughout the United States. Access to the public registry would be real time instead of 24 hours old as with the current process of providing a daily update for public web presentation.

Monthly Update: The SOR Redesign team continues to meet monthly to discuss the various types of data that should be captured in the new SOR based upon federal and state laws. Weekly conference calls are held with representatives from GBI, IBM, and GTA to discuss the hardware and software needed for the SOR platform and documentation needed for the Request for Solution (RFS). The test servers have been ordered.
