Monthly Update - Application development continues, and a May meeting has been scheduled with the project team to discuss the work required for completion. CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT (CRM) Project Description - The CRM Application Project will provide a single source of historical interaction with external customers and will provide GCIC end users the ability to search, track and report customer interactions throughout business units. Monthly Update - There are no updates this month. CUSTOMER SUPPORT & TRAINING Project Description - The Customer Support Training group provides training in GCIC programs, GCIC applications, and GCIC/FBI compliance to criminal justice agencies across the State of Georgia. The group extends the option to receive classroom training or training within an eLearning environment. Monthly Update - The Training Staff handled 96 phone calls, 1,073 emails, 19 crystal reports and managed LMS user account additions. Multiple webinars and one-on-one trainings are being completed to meet State of Georgia training needs. 14 GEORGIA APPLICANT PROCESSING SERVICE (GAPS) PROJECT Project Description - The Information Services section of GCIC 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). The selected vendor shall also handle receiving fingerprint search results and disseminating results to the requestor. Monthly Update - There are no updates this month. 15 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 team meets weekly to review the project. The vendor and GBI met to discuss the AIX Microfocus Cobol applications and the need to convert/migrate to the new environment. The vendor successfully completed the software install within the development environment and GBI began testing. The project's UAT team completed training sessions to become familiar with the system prior to testing. The vendor is currently working on interface development. HUMAN RESOURCE (HR) TIMESHEET PROJECT Project Description - Enhancement of the application used by non-sworn units of the GBI for tracking time. Monthly Update - There are no updates this month. NATIONAL INCIDENT-BASED REPORTING SYSTEM (NIBRS) PROJECT Project Description - The National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS) collects law enforcement data on each single incident and arrest for each offense for which specific facts are collected. GBI is in the process of replacing the current UCR summary-based system with this system. Monthly Update - The GBI corrected data for the 2019 Publication. GBI determined the need to capture the religion of the victim and the offender in the Bias Crime Report. The vendor agreed to accommodate additional data elements for victim and offender and will complete the tasks by midJune. The vendor has begun working on technical specification changes, XML specs, and schema for the project. 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 -The project team continues weekly calls and system demos with the vendor to discuss development of the Rap Back system and design document. The AFIS vendor successfully rolled into production the Rap Back features and is currently waiting for GBI to provide the Rap Back switch over date. 16 Issues with back-end processing for Rap Back testing is resolved, however; several bugs were noted by the vendor, which they are working to resolve before UAT. The acceptance test plan was delivered one week prior to the Go-Live date, which does not provide GBI enough time to test. The Go-Live date will be delayed. SERVER REFRESH Project Description - GBI is working in collaboration with GTA with the replacement, installation and configuration of several server hardware replacements and software installs. Monthly Update - Weekly meetings are taking place to determine the work that GBI must complete such as firewall, opening of ports, and privilege access requests. GBI received the FTP, SOR, AIX and CCH servers. 17
