POLrCE COMMUNICATIONS AND INFORMATION SYSTEMS CONSULTING SERVICES - PHASE II
RECOMMENDATION/MOTION:
Amend the contract previously awarded to John Dorsey and Associates of Lathrup
Village, Michigan for automated information and data management consulting
services to the Police Department to include all work previously agreed upon
plus system selection and implementation management for a new ,police records
system and,mobile'computers at a consulting cost of $64,395, for a total
amended cost of $178,665
~ end that the appropriate officials be authorized to execute some.
BACKGROUND:
On March 17, 1994, the city commission awarded a contract to John Dorsey and
Associates to evaluate the Police Department's existing information and data
management systems and develop a comprehensive plan for a fully integrated
police information system. Further, the firm was tasked with assisting with
the acquisition of hardware, software, and support services necessary to
implement a new, state-of-the-art computer aided dispatch system.
The Dorsey team (four consultants) began work immediately upon approval by the
city commission. They have conducted extensive interviews with personnel at
all levels in the police department, examined existing automated systems, and
completed the strategic Information Systems Plan for the police department.
,That plan (attached) outlines a recommended information technology strategy and
implementation plan. The team continues to work on system requirements,
alternatives, and specifications.
Th~ strategic Information Systems Plan found "data processing to be well
managed in the Clearwater Police Department.1I Nevertheless, significant
opportunities for enhancing information services were identified. For example,
there are concerns about the existing Records Management System network
unreliabilitYi a cumbersome, obsolete laptop reporting processi lack of

The'consultinq team has' recommended that the, police department. and the city
should move forward now' in accordance with the findings of the st~ategic plan
to correct these identified deficiencies through the acquisition of'a new'

acquiring these systems together, we,are a~sured of the full, integrated
functionality of each component. Further, by coordinating this next phase of
the project with the construction of the new police facility, the city will
'realize a'savings in cabling and networking costs compared to wiring an
, 'existing building. '

important engagement., 'We would also like to compliment Captain Dewey W~lliams,
Communications Division Commander, who provides outstanding project leadership, Mr.
Jim Albright, Computer SelVices Director, who provides every possible kind of assis~

ment, 'Significant opportunities for enhancing information selVices have been identified,
and we urge the adoption of technology standards as recommended in the report. Long-
ter:m success will depend upon periodic updating of the Strategic Information Systems

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Project Background and Objective

'.t.,;
The ClealWater Police Department has had a significant involvement in data processing,
acquiring current resources including a Unisys mainframe, and several NoveU ,computer
networks, Present equipment and application software has satisfied some deparbnent
needs. However, concerns have arisen about Computer Aided Dispatch system obsoles~
eenee, excessive and redundant manual effort required to enter, information, and limited
system functionality. Moreover, needed management information is not readily accessi~
ble, and must be manually prepared.

As a result of these and other concerns, John Dorsey & Associates was engaged to help
the Police Department in planning, selecting and implementing a,new Computer Aided;
Dispatch (CAD) System. Specifically, the Police Department requested, assistance in
helping them to achieve the following objectives:

" A, project has been planned to include the following elements:
. Develop a Strategic,Plan: Conduct long term technology planning for the Police
Depa~ent.
. Detennination Police Needs: Conduct a Needs Assessment to refine prior depart-
, mental plans, determine needed computer interfaces, and conclude, in concert
with the IMG and Police Department administrators, on the specific priorities for
near term computer automation.
. Acquire a CAD System and Associated Interfaces: Select integrated computer and
CAD technology which will support present and future police functions. '
. Implement Planned Automation: Provide proje~ management assistance to assure
effective implementation of planned systems and technologies,
, While conducting the strategic planning process, concerns arose about the Records
Management System (RMS) network unreliability: cumbersome laptop procedures, lack
of CAD/RMS integration, and inadequate functionality of these systems. As a result, a
new Records Management System and mobile computers have also been planned,
The present plan seeks to replace prior se~ces, provide a foundation for future develop-
mentS:l correct present deficiencies, effectively exploit new computer and communications
developments, and provide' effective seIVices to Police Department officials, staf4 and
citizens,' while maintaining an economical and effective data processing function,
Project Scope

This segment involved the review of current systems and documentation, confirmation of
consultant and client understandings of the ,current and planned computer environment,
and the development of a strategic plan for Police Department automation.
We reviewed the organization and technical requirements, We' also determined, in
concert with Police representatives and the Information Management Group (IMG) , the
scope of short term and long term computer automation. As a result, the major charac-
teristics of the Police systems, and a strategy for acquiring and implementing. them, was
developed.

Additional project activities included: defining the plan and related implementation
processes for application systems, computer hardware, and office automation; reviewing
and projecting ,data processing resources; and determining communications requirements
for both internal networking and remote telecommunicating,

Although tbe objective of this project is to develop a plan rather than to evaluate present
. , 'operations, we have developed certain obseIVations and conclusions which have lead us
to recommend courses of action further described in the body of the' report, These
recommendations are provided in the following areas: '
· Make the IMG Committee, or a like steering committee, a permanent fixture
· Acquire uniform IBM-Compatible microcomputers
... Acquire uniform office automation software
· Rely on st~ndard application systems
,
'. Review and update Police Depax:tment computer policies
, ,
· A.dopt standards-based computer infrastructure pro~u~ts
,
· C~ntinue to seek multijurisdictional efforts such as the County/ACISS arrange-'.
ment
· Incorporate all Police Department staff into a single computer netWork
· Enhance the Police Department computer training program
, ,
· Strengthen the information systems organization
· Obtain telephone equipment and voice/data cabling for the new Police Headquar-
ters which are supportive of needed voice and data functions

An organization chart reflecting this present organization structure is attached as Exhibit
II-A. It is' presently anticipated, in a move which should not impact significantly upon
the present computer planning project, that a fall reorganization will result in having the
Division Commanders report to one of two Deputy Chiefs as reflected in Exhibit II-B.
Police Computer Costs
The Police Department has a budget of slightly over $19 million, of which 'approximately
$660,000 is spent on Computer Support Setvices, including wages for four staff. This
figure represents approximately 3.35% of the total Police Department's budget,
G~nerally, about 2% of a public sector organization's budget is allocated to data
processing1. The budget figures include salaries, equipment purchases, supp1ie~, mainte-
nance contracts, and similar costs. Comparable figures for Police Departments ar~ not
readily available.
The Clearwater Police Department's Data Processing budget is higher than the average,
I~rgely because of its significant contribution to the City data processing budget. Ap-
proximately $277,739 of the Police computer budget consists of contributions to the City
Information Setvices for finance and other services (Exhibit II-C).
Another major annual payment is of $116,454 for the Unisys A-6 computer ($50,000 of
these payments will cease after July, 1995, when the final lease payment for the present
Unisys A-6 is made).
The Police Department maintains the A-6 computer to support the present Computer
Aided Dispatch ,System, and also to provide computer backup for the City's Unisys A-4
computer. '
Based upon a total City Information Systems budget of $1,285,190, tbe Police Depart-
ment's payments of $277,739 represent a 21.61% contribution to that budget,
Moneys spent directly on police computer operations represent only 2% of the total
police budget, which is in line with the above averages.

Patrol is the largest organizational component: over three-quarters of the Department's
police officers are assigned to the Patrol Division, This division, commanded by a
captain, is responsible for the preliminary investigation of all calls for police service, for
traffic enforcement and accident investigations, and for special operational units such as
S.W.A.T. and Crime Prevention. In addition to the captain, a lieutenant and three staff
assistants are assigned to the administration of the division.
L'
L.
In 1987 - because of the unique characteristics and senses of identity of the different
sections of the city anp the geographic distance of main headquarters from important
parts of the city, patrol operations were decentralized into three patrol districts, each
with its own police station.

When a call for service from a citizen is receivedt an operator, with the assistance of
prompts from a computer screen, takes the necessary information and enters it into the
Computer Aided Dispatch system. This information includes the name, address, and
phone number of the complainant, the nature of the incident and the time it o~urred,
and whether there is a suspect and, if so, a physical description. The call is then entered
, into the Computer Aided Dispatch System (CAD) and transmitted to the dispatcher's
screen. The dispatcher, depending on the priority of the call and the availability of
officers, either dispatches a unit immediately or holds it until one is free. The Commu-
nications Center processed over 94,000 calls that came into the center during 1993.

Service Requests and Crime Statistics
Police Calls for Service have increased significantly in recent years, reportedly doubling
during the last decade. During the recent two year period, as indicated on Exhibit II.D,
the volume of calls has gone from 161,954 to 174,948, aD increase of 8%. Other De-
partmental statistics vary, with a significant decrease in Part I crimes being partially
offset by an increase in Part II crimes, and by increased narcotics arrest activity.
The Unifrom Crime Reports (VCR) provide a statistical base of eight serious offenses
caUed "Index Crimes" and/or Part I Crimes. These are considered serious offenses, likely
to be reported to police, occurring in all geographic areas of the country, and occurring
frequently enough to be statistically significant.
Part II's also involve serious crimes, by community standards, as well as less serious
crime. They include crimes not necessarily reported by all citizens, and are dependant to
some degree on officer-generated cases. Both Part I and Part II crimes represent a true
picture of 'criminal activity in a community.
,Clearance rates for the City are, incidentally, very high, and well above national averages.

~ part of the planning project, a review was conducted of all Police Divis~ons. Among
information collected during this process were: '
. Status of current systems
. Key findings concerning information systems
· Short Term Needs
· Long Tefm' ?lans
'. Interface Requirements
. Equipment Requirements
. . Automation Constraints
;\
Specific findings for each Division arc described in the appendix. A description of t~e
, status. of current Police information technology, grouped in 'general categories, is provi~-
'ed below. '
Computer Aided Dispatch
The Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) System was acquired initially in the late 1970's,
, rewritten by the City Information Systems (IS) staff, and maintained by them during and
since a conversion to different Burroughs/Unisys mainframes. The programs (and Com~ '
puter) were transferred to the PoliCe Department from their former location in the Ci'ty
Information System's computer room in 1987. "
, .
Work flow of the present CAD system is depicted on Exhibit.III.A. Calls for Service
typically begin with a telephone ~all to' 911, or directly to the Police Department. If the
call is a 911 call, the ,County's E-911 System captures the calle'rs numbe'r and address,
and an operator transfers th~ call to the Police Depal1Il1ent where the information is
displayed for a Call Taker. .

Call Takers enter information into the CAD system, and transfer' the information to
typically' one of two dispatchers (who control either the East Side or the West Side of,
" the City).
Dispatchers have available to them, and update, vehicle status information as' cal'ls are
, processed, and call status as vehicles are assigned and calls are cleared.
CAD sYstem concerns r~sulting from our survey and interyiews are as follows:
. A-Series computer utilized for CAD is an obsolete, proprietary system
. 'E.911 System provides no ALl/ANI Interface to C~
. 'High Risk- Calls are not supported effectively
, ,
.' Cryptic commands are required to obtain data' from system
. NCICIFCIC is not widely accessible
"
. CAD and Records data are inconsistent
:'
. No timers ~re available to aid in assuring officer safety
., ,Lack capability for dynamic varying of zones/sectorsfbeats
; '
. 'Lack support for automatic re'trieval of data needed by patrol officers such as
BOLO's and Trespass Warnings -
· Screen refresh is very slow
· No ability to perform dispatcher simulation tniining exists, extending the training

The Clearwater Police Departm~nt presently ~akcs us of a three year-old ten channel
Ericsson GE 800 Mhz. Trunking voice radio system which provides radio service for all
City agencies. Three channels are equipped with telephone interconnect, and three '
, channels are equipped with voice guard (for secure voice communications). An eleventh
channel was licensed as a conventional data channel.
The system ~nvolves one primary and one backup transmit/voting receive site, and two
additional voting (receive only) sites. Site interconnect is via microwave (analog and
digital mix), with leased lines to eight CML consoles ,~n the' dispa~ch center and one
backup ill: the radio shop. The Department hopes to replace the consoles with CRT
(Maestro) consoles.
lhe Police Department utilizes a total of 495 G.E. radios. Of these, 333 are hand.held
" portables; 179 are mobile radios. Laptops aTe also available to the officers in the ve-
hicles, but that equipment lacks Radio Frequency (RF) cOmmunications capability, and is
too old and obsolete to upgrade.
Various argumentS h'ave been put forth for utilizing Mobile Computer TeIDlinals

Aside from the direct benefit of each of these application's, MeT's may reduce much of
the overload/overflow into the current East & West dispatch positions, and reduce the
need for a second Information Operator position in the Communications Center. '
, Among staff, there is a feeling that there is inadequate in.vebicle portable Coverage;
therefore, if the trunked radio system is used as a transport mechanism, either the c
current radio would be required to share voiCe and data with voice priority, or a'second
radio would be required.
There are two primary options for mobile, data computers which the Department can
consider: "
. Dedicated 800 Mhz data~only conventional channel .
. Trunking data over the existing Ericsson GE radio system
A conventional data system, is one in which a fixed (hence convention~l) RF channel is .
'assigned exclusively to data traffic; no voice can be transmitted on this channel. Typ~
icaUy the base RF station is interfaced directly to a data controller, which is in turn
connected to a message switch, or directly to the CAD host computer. Mobile units are
equipped with RF modems which communicate with, the base station controller, and
subsequently to the host.
A tnmked data system is ODe in which the existing (Ericsson GE) radio system is used to
transport the data. Typically, control base stations (desktop mobiles) are used to provide
aD interface to the CAD host/message switch. 'In this environment a data call is handled
like a voice call, .with channel requests being submitted and gra~ied through 'the radio
systems's control channel. Mobile units are still equipped with RF modems, but because
the system is operating'in trunked mode, it is possible, although not always desirable, to
share the same radio for voice and data applications.
Advantages and disadvantages of each are provided below:

The attached chart (Exhibit III.D) is a simplified versio:n of the Officcr Report Entry
Info~ation Flow Chart (Exhibit III-B). The purpose of the simplified version of the
chart is to graphically portray, the drastic simplification of workflow possible with the use
of an integ~ated on.line real time information system. The tedious people, paper and
computer processes are reduced. Moreover, if Records is integrated with CAD,
redundant data entry can be significantly reduced.

The key to the chart is the fact that with direct radio linked laptop Computers, officers in
the field will replace: (1) the need for additional dispatchers to inquire into NCIC or
other systems, (2) dispatchers for sending historic data about suspects or properties, (3)
clerical staff to enter datat (4) couriers to carry diskettes, and (5) review staff to check ,
baseline data on incident reports.
The officer will be tied to the 'central system and will inquire directly into databases
without the dispatchers intervention. He or she can download the CAD data into their
incident reports, and enter the offense data elements directly into the central system. If
there is a codi~g error or a data element is missed, the officer will be prompted directly
from the central system for the added data.
The, piles of diskettes and paper repone; will be eliminated. The officers should become
comfortable enough, to eliminate their paper files in the car as their backup system. The
on-line feedback about errors will eliminate the need for the perfunctory review being
done in the central office and will make data much more accurate.
Ari obvious approach to achieving tWs goal is to use newer technologyt communications.
enabled, notebook computers in conjunction with an integrated CADIRMS system.
Other data entry processes will b'e explored in Section IV of this report.

Constraints
Numerous constraints may impact upon the Police Department, including:
. Construction of a new Police ~uilding may impact schedules and timing of
infrastructure improvements
. A Departmental reorganization is anticipated in October 1994; it will result in
having mid.level command staff report to Deputy Chiefs for Op~rations and
Services
. Funding status for all possible police functions: CAD/RMS/MDT/A VL
. Anticipated future budget constraints
. .
. Slow CAD system processing' precludes dispatchers from providing faster service '
to, officers, thus mandating additional staff to accommodate inherent system ineffi-
ciencies
.' Low number of Communications microcomputers limits administrative functions
for all staff
. Lack of integrated CAD/Records system at dispatch inhibits providing more com-
plete information to officers; additionally, the records system is down from 2.5:00
A.M. every day for backup, inhibiting the night shift from accessing records
. Voice and data mobile radio system'may not provide adequate in-vehicle portable
coverage; if the tTUnked radio system is used as a transport mechanism, either the
current radio would be required tO'share voice and data with voice prioritY, or a
second radio would be required
; r'
,L
C
["
, :',
, '
;,['
;,t
. Given the highly loaded nature of certain positions in the dispatch center, it is
likely that CPD would become very reliant on a Mobile Computer System shortly
after cutover. Thus, significant consideration should be given to fault tolerance
and backup operations
. Inspectional Services Division data is confidential, and must be secured
. Requirement for public access to patrol reports, including laptop data

Training Requirements
"Many divisions have voiced concerns about their need for computer training. Additional
training needs are evident.
Present systems, including laptops, were implemented without the appropriate training
being provided to staff. As new application and office systems are implemented, we
suggest that significant training monies be set aside for this function.
f
Systems Development Methodology
Several systems have been acquired in recent yeaTS through 'a detailed systems specifica-
tion and programming process. Prominent among these are the various records and
laptop systems. We suggest that cust~m development of software is a faT less desirable
approach than is acquisition of packaged software, unless Division requirements are
exceptionally unique in a particular area.
Custom development is a risky, typically expensive, process. ,It is also a process which
involves Department staff in lengthy planning, testing, and review functions.
These risks and addition~l activities can be reduced. by taking advantage of the plethora
of packaged software that are available today. Implementing packaged software is not
without risks, but these can be minimized through a carefully crafted system selection
process, as presently cOntemplated.
Once selected, the Department can benefit from shared maintenance costs with other' I
police departments, and take advantage of features and functions which they would not
have considered in a custom-developed system.
Computer Organization
The Police Department's Computer Operation's Unit is,partof the Services Division,
reporting to the Commander through ,the Assistant Division Commander. The Unit has
four fun time employees: '

SECTION IV
TECHNOLOGY ALTERNATIVES
, Introduction
Technology advances daily, while customers of the technology acquire products periodi-
cally. As a result, the Police Department will always be seeking to' 'catch~up to the
current best products. Utilization of these, however, is recognized as importantt as
Itprocess Reengineering" approaches to systems development seek to exploit the opportu.
nitles inherent in them. Among the benefits are a presently estimated 54% annual
. average rate of return on investment on computer purchases.. '
. ,
Limitations such as a small (four person) data processing staff, and small training
budgets, cause the OealWater Police Department, understandably, to seek to reduce
complexity and achieve uniformity whenever possible. These will be underlying goals of
the information systems plan.
As described in Section llIJ the Police Department utilizes older technology for Com-
puter Aided Dispatch' (a Unisys A.Series mainframe), but near sta:te-of-the-art infor-
mation tec;:hnology (Novell 3.il LAN) for records. The former needs to he replaced in
its entirety because of being obsolete, proprietary, hardware; the latter provides some-
whiit of a building block for new systems in its ~echilOlogy, but not in the maze of
unintegrated application software it utilizes.
In general, it is important for the Department ,to continue to achieve ease of util~ation
and maintenance, and position itself to take advantage of advances in technologyt
through adoption of appropriate, technology standards. Selection of standards are not :
simple, and cannot ever be totally error-free, but achievement of high level information '
systems without extravagant expenditures can be achieved. Indeed, a major advantage of
a standards.based approach is cost savings. Proposed technology standards are provided
in the next se'ction. .

Changes in Local Area Networks in recent years have been evolutionary rather than
revolutionary. The IBM Token Ring Network became available in 1986. However, it
has not become the de facto standard that many people had predicted. Although Token
Ring did not propel ffiM to the forefront of the Local Area Network market, it has
become a very viable alternative to the various local area network schemes currently
available.

Ethernet is a viable and highly functional alternative. It is an older IAN specification
that was jointly developed by DEC, Intel, and Xerox. These companies hoped to make
Ethernet the local area networking method. Originally based upon a single coaxi,aI cable, ,
this market leading IAN has evolved today into a twisted pair-based hub technology.
IEEE's lOBASE- T specifications provide for a network management approach which
supports Ethernet and a variety of other communication protocols. OealWater has
wisely chosen Ethernet as a networking standard.
Generally, the preferred approach for organizations today is to adopt a standards-based
technology direction, utilizing as much of Open Systems architecture 'as is available and
practicable. Such an approach results in hardware independence and interoperability
from ODe machine to another. Client/SelVer computing, in concert with the Unix
operating system, promoted by the Open Software Foundation, has become the flag.
bearer for OpeD Systems, but DOS and Windows are also de facto standards.
Offense Entry
Determining a solution to its Mobile, Data Communications needs is of particular interest .
in the Police Department's investigation of alternatives. .
The Department's concern originates with field data collection technology. Most of the
present laptops lack hard disk drives; all lack RF communications capability. Both the
hardware and software are cumbersome to operate, and serve to impede rather than
enhance the Departmental flow of information.
On.line communications can be procured through vendors sllch as RAM Communica.
tioDS which, charge an monthly fee of approximately $200 per terminal to use their radio
communications infrastructure, or this capability can be utilized on either the Citis own
trunked or separate 800 Mhz. radio system. Utilization of the existing infrastructure
appears prudent.

Laptop Computers
1)e present utilization of the I~ptop computers in the police cars has been positively
received. by the officers. In February, 1994 the Police Department survey~d 100 officers
who were using the laptop computers' for accident and offense reporting, and found that
60% favored laptops for report writing, whereas only 28% did not enjoy using laptops
(and 12% were undecided). Of the 28% who did not enjoy using the laptops:
. 17% wanted to return to handwritten reports
. 7% wanted phone in reporting
. 4% dislike computers
These, statistics seem to indicate, that the Inajority of the officers are disposed to using
laptops. For the remaining 28% who do not favor using the units, it is possible that
inadequate training (init~al training was reported to be inadequate) and the limitations of
the present units (e.g., lack of hard disk) may be contributing factors in the incidence of
dissatisfaction.
The inadequacy of the current systems is evidenced by responses from the accident short
forms from new officers attempting to learn to use the systems, such as: )
. 59% believe speed is poor
. 50% believe screens are poorly designed
. 33% believe manuals are poorly written
. 41% believe systems are not reliable,
. 43% have no confidence in the systems
. 43% are not satisfied with these units (not the technology)
, To further confirm officer attitudes, and learn of their preference for future offense en-
, try ~echnology, we distributed another sUlvey to the officers, and tabulated the responses.
The results of that survey are portrayed on Exhibits IV -A, B, and C.
Approximately 50% of sworn officers responded to the sUIVey, with 66% favoring a
Laptop ,Computer approach (Exhibit IV.A). Patrol Officers particularly favored this'
approach, with 73% supporting Laptops (Exhibit IY.B), some because of the perceived
utility of the 'same device for both offense entry, and for Mobile Data Terminal (MDT)
applications such as FCIC/NCIC access, and digital dispatch. Among Investigators
(detectives), a majority of 67% favored dictation, aD approach which can be vel)'
effective for satisfying their reporting requirements. '

Standalone Notebook (No Remote Communications)
This approach is fraught with many problems. If a laptop is in the police car without on.
line communications to the central system, then a problem arises in trying to transfer
data between the mobile computer ~nd the main system. Batch data transfer technolo-
gies have improved, however, including allowing for a network interface (network inter-
face card) or a newer PCMCIA card.
Present Department laptops exemplify the problems with this technology. They arc slow,
old, inefficient and cumbersome.
There is a p~oblem with using floppy disks to enter data, since too often disks are refor-
matted after they il;re entered. If a disk needs to be re.read, the data is gone. Thus, ,
resulting fear, un~rtainty and doubt (FUD) often causes officers to maintain redundant
manual records of aU incidents.
New, faster and better computers in 'the vehicles will alleviate many present shortcom.
ings. Unless they are communications enabled as described below, however, new units
will not permit on.line inquiry into the database without voice linked dispatchers.' Al-
though newer units have major advantages over the existing outdated units, there will be
few systemic differences without communications improvements.
New Mobile Computer Terminal (MeT)
A mobile computer terminal is a mobile personal computer. It supports fun screen ac.
cess to data and a fun keyboard for typing and entering any normally enterable data as
would any normal terminal or personal computer. If units are on-line, real.time (com.
municati,ons enabled through radio frequency modems), there are many potential bene.
fits (as are outlined in the attached chart, Exhibit IV.E):
01,
. Clerical: Since the officer would be directly linked into the system, he/she would
not ,need to maintain a paper trail of data, and there would be no need to have
anyone else enter data.
. Errors: By using an, on-line real.time access to the central database the incidence
of errors would be significantly reduced. Since the system would give the officer
immediate feedback, errors can be corrected before data is transferred into the
Records System. It is possible that the significant personnel savings would offset
the acquisition and maintenance of the' system.

. Costs: In the short run, this option is costly. However, when one calculates the
savings over five years for Communications staff, reduced clerical work due to
simplified data entry and better automated statistical tracking, and fewer correc-
tions required in data entry, advantaged become clear.

. Redundancy: This approach provides the least amount of redundant or duplicated
data entry and database maintenance.
. Dispatchers: This is ~he only viable system that would allow officers to inquire
directly into NCIC or other databases without hav:ing to tie up a Dispatcher on
voice communication and database searching. Currently, the o~cer has to call
the Dispatcher and the Dispatcher or Information Operator has to enter the
quel)' into a system (while the officer is waiting for a response) and then the Dis-
patcher has to call the officer,' and the officer has to write the data onto paper for
future reference. With a direct linkage the officer could key into a the database .
without the assistance of a Dispatcher and then immediately retrieve data
(without waiting and wasting time), and have the data directly entered into hisJher
incident database or word processing document or printed immediately on the
portable car-based printer. The unique advantage of this technology would be
reducing the need for additional dispatchers/data clerks on every shift.

· Feedback: This is the ~nly option which provides on-line real-time feedback. If
an officer keys the wrong code for all incident he/she can correct his/her error
before it gets logged or posted to the system incorrectly.
. User Satisfaction: This approach would apparently provide the officers the highest
user satisfaction level.

· NIBRS statistics: Since this technology will provide for full access to the tables of
codes, officers would not have to cany books to identify codes: With the advent
of the NIBRS coding, this may become the only viable option for efficient
capturing of incident based data.

. Audit Trail: Since the system would provide immediate recall and validation of
data, this electronic audit trail would minimize or eliminate much of the paper
capturing of data. '
· Training: Since this approach would have the required offense data elements
already imbedded in the system, the officer's learning curve would be significantly
reduced.
Uploading offense reports to the Records system may be problematic because of trans-
, mission speed constraints of mobile computers, which are generally limited to 9,600 baud
(bits per seCond) at the present time. As a result, officers may have to upload reports at
the end of their shift, Of periodically transfer them during their shift from remote data
stations.3 Although wireless downloading is not yet ruled out, telecommunication down.
loading is a process expected to require less than one minute.
Pen.Based Notebook
This is a ~ew technology which holds great promise for police incident feporting auto-
mation.' For example, versions developed by some vendors support pen-based "pi~k.Iist"
operation for variable data fields, and keyboafd operation for entry of report narrative.
Additionally, they caD provide excellent utility for applications such as preparing AcciM
dent Reports, as they pernlit drawing of accident scenes. Key additional advantages of
this technology include all those listed above for MeT's, plus a greatly enhanced capa.
bility for entering/selecting codes on forms.
Voice Recognition Notebook
This in another, perhaps even more "cutting-edge," technology which holds promise for
use in police reporting. It may be too new to have immediate benefits for the Clear.
water Police.
Voice Mail
This option would permit officers to call a telephone answering machine and dictate
their narratives. Apart from the logistical problems to procure sufficient telephone lines

The only advantage of this option over the Telephone option (e.g., A. R.M.S., following)
is that if there were sufficient lines and recording machines, there would not be a backup

Paper is the historical offense reporting option. Returning to it now will result in the
same increased clericill staffing burden described above. Although the hype about the
paperless police station may exceed tbe presently feasible reality, real.time computer
system with laptop units in'the police vehiCles can substantially reduce the current prolif.
eration of paper. Coupled with imaging technology, a new system can re~uce paper, par.
ticularly with the support, cooperation and satisfaction of the officers. Paper, like several
other approaches, increases the need for clerical staff to enter reports.
Scannable Paper
Scannable pLl-per is paper with OCR (optical character recognition) formatted pages
listing most of the key variables required on the VCR reportS. This option h,as some
merit but there are a few assumptions that are required to implement this option:
.. Officers will be careful to legibly print name and address and incident Dumber '
data on each sheet (this assumption may be difficult to accomplish).
. There may be a need for some additional medium to capture narrative informa~
tion, such as,laptop computers, paper, voice Dlail or telephone.
Dictaphone
As one normally sees in the classic party stunt in which one person whispers a story in
the eaT of the person next to them' and so forth, until the last person tells the story -- it is
genera]]y acCepted that distortions result from our audio filters of perception of what we
hear versus what was said. Police officers, are dissimilar from executiyes who routinely
use dictation equipment.
Typically executives are not as rushed as police officers, and are more accustomed to
using dictation eq\1ipment. An executive's private secretary would know his/her tasks and

personal speaking and writing idiosyncrasies, wheras a general police secretarial poo~
would be at a disadvantage in dealing with many diffefent styles.
Since dictation would' be free form, if the officer forgot several items the clerk would
have to verbally Of in writing attempt to track down the officer and ask for the correct
answers. If the officer remembers, then he/she will have to verbally or in written form
communicate with the secretary. Furthermore, the secretary will have to create, maintain
and manage a separate file to keep up with the outstanding incident reports.
Although dictation as a means to capture data is used throughout industry and among
some police forces, it may not, be a cost effective solution for patrol if one adds the costs
for clerical staffing, typing, phone calls, filing systems, and missed data due to misunder-
standings or incomplete composition.
There is a high probability that the quality and completeness of an incident form would
be substantially improved if an officer has to fill in a form on a computer screen (an ,
electronic form) that promp~ specific questions needed for the VCR or NIBRS re-
porting as opposed to the free form dictation modality.
Dictation' equipment could be useful for processing the narrative portions of the incident,
reports, particularly for detectives, but an on.1ine real time interaction with' the active
database will be more critical for capturing the necessary data for management reporting
and for accurate reporting to the state and federal governmental agencies. "
A.R.M.S.
The Pinellas County Sheriff's Office has been using an Automated Report Management
System (A.R.M.S.) since January, 1991. Officers have telephones dedicated for their use
located ,at several local banks near their drive-in tellers.
The officers utilize the phones for entering offense and other police data, talking to
operators who call up the appropriate report form on a computer workstation, and then
interview the deputies. After asking them a series of questions to complete needed data
fields, the operatofs record the narrative portion of the reports by typing in a deputy.
dictated narrative.
'.
The big advantage of tbe A.R.M.S. System over dictation is the obtaining of complete,
computer acceptable, reports duling the initial data collect effort.

A bottleneck in this process sometimes results towards the end of the day when lines are
; busy and the operators at the Sheriffs Office are tied up~ according to anecdotal reports
of Police Officers who know Sheriffs Deputies. Too often, the deputies have to call
back after hours from home or go to the Sheriffs office and wait until an operator is
available during the next shift. If the City would have to pay overtime for this after.shift
hours, then the cost could become prohibitive. '

Further, when the Sheriffs computer system is down, as happened for one day recently,
additional problems arise. The deputies recorded their reports on an automated dicta-,
tion system. Because of having become depe~dent upon operators querying them to col-
lect report data, however, the reports were poorly done and required significant
followup. '

Alternative Technology Cost Analysis
A larger cost problem arises because of the need to hire additional clerical staff to
answer telephones and proceSs reports. The present A.R.M.S. System requires 24
civilian employees and 4 civilian supervisors.
Based upon an analysis of report volume and processing costs which we conducted with
Captain Wiggins of the Sheriff's Office, the Clearwater Police Department will require
approximately one-half of the clerical staff required by the Sheriff (12 operato'rs). Ad-
ditional supervisory personnel, may also be required. Alternatively, the Sheriffs Office
will provide the service to the Clearwater Police Department at a cost of approximately
$8 per report.

A cost analysis of telephone an~ dictation is provided on Exhibit IV.D. Generally, it
indicates that the mobile computer approach is economically advantageous over either of
the other two.

We estimate that the five-year cost of mobile computer systems will be $513,000. That
cost is as low as it is because of anticipated cost savings resulting from a reduced Deed
for manual and clerical procedures. Fewer Infonnation Operators will be Deeded in the
Communications Center because of Patrol Officers being able to do much of their
needed research from their mobile computers~ Similar cost reductions are anticipated
, ,because of not needing to have Detectives'review every report, and because of eliminat-
ing the duties of two'Records Clerks.

The Dictation Option, like aD in.house implementation of a system similar to the County
Sheriff's system, is estimated to require the addition of twelve Clerks to either key re-
ports from dictation or interact over the telephone with Officers who call in their reports.
This option is estimated to cost $1,875,000 over five years.

A.R.M.S costs are anticipated to be slightly lower than Dictation costs due to the antic.
ipated savings of three internal positions. Nonetheless, because of the $8 per report
charge from the Sheriff's Office, we anticipate that the cost of A.R.M.S will be
$1,550,000 over five years. Additional costs and complications will arise because of
having to procure and operate a separate, nonMintegrated, Computer Aided Dispatch

STRATEGIC INFORMATION DIRECTION
Introduction
The role of information systems is rapidly changing in the 1990's, resulting in a.co~sider-
able amount of confusion in the information processing industry. This confusion results
from an industry that 'is in a state of transition With respect to technology, structure, the
roles of vendors and suppliers as well as the roles of systems within municipal govemM
m,ents. Gone are the days when purchasing large centralized processors answered the
complete data processing needs of municipal governments. Today's users are confronted.
with a multitude of fundamental choices in architectures, platforms, configurations,'
operating systems, and communications alternatives as well as vendors.

Client/Server Distributed Architecture
, The central concept is to slice and dice tile mainframe. ,CalVe up the power and ftmc-
tions normally trapped inside that costly behemoth (as described in Section IV) and
parcel them out to a network of several small computers. First, put a microcomputer on
eveI)' desk. Then, ~nnect them together on a netWork and add specialized flserver"
computers to do particular jobs such as managing data bases, printers, and electronic-
mail sys~ems. Add the right software, and the network itself becomes "the computer".
By attaching Dew workstations and selVers, it can easily expand and adapt to the' Depart-
ment's changing needs.

The architecture consists of four logical layers: the application, the selVer, the client and
the network. The user application interfaces are graphical (GUI) with an "int.elligent
front endlf user workstation (client), communicating over a local area network (LAN) or
wide area network (WAN) to access the shared uback end" processor (seIVer).
The use of this architecture provides the advantages of increased hardware and software
flexibility, improved system response time, as well as improved user productivity. In fact,
research results strongly support the hypothesis that the use of the graphical user inter-
face provides benefits over the traditional character-based user interface in white collar
environment. Specifically, the research support seven benefits:
· GUI Users (1) work faster and (2) work better (complete more of their tasks
accurately) than Character User Interfaces (CUI) users, and therefore have (3)
higher productivity than CUI users
, "
, "
. .'
· GUI users express (4) lower frustration and perceive (5) lower fatigUe after
working with microcomputer
· GUI users are better able than CUI users to (6) self-teach and explore and to (7)
learn mor~ capabilities of the application
However, to obtain these advantages, ODe must deal with the higher complexity of
Client/Server (CIS) systems because they have many more components than their cent-
ralized' predecessors. The networks, operating systems, database selVers, user interfaces,
front-end development tools, middleware, processor types, standards~ and design
methodol~gies aU complicate the client/sever strategy.
The first and, most important component of the architecture is the application. The
'application is the program that TUns on either tbe client or the server. It determines how
the user perceives the CIS system. An application exploits the client's user interface for
presentation to the user, and exploits the server for data services and some processing. '
However, the shift,iog of application logic to the client side has thrown the CjS model off
balance forcing ever increasing processing requirements on the client. In order to'maxi-
mize the utilization of the server, careful application partitioning design and development
is critical in order to control the ever increasing workstation processing requirements and
costs.
The back end system, the sCJVer platfonn, must be selected in conjunction with the
database server software. Critical issues in this platform include server capacity, database
software meeting user performan'cc requirements, and the server operating system

NT provide advanced features such as pre-emptive multitasking, multithreading, virtual
memory management, and high performance Input and Output, which are critical to
allowing high performance databases to operate.

,The client is one of the most important aspects of the overall CIS system, yet most often
overlooked. The client is where most of the application processing occurs and where the
user perceives the overall system. Important aspects to consider when designing the
client is the selection of a front end development system that meets both the program.
mer, database seJVer, and user needs. Tools such as Visual Basic, Powerbuilder, and
SQL Windows are instrumental in providing effective applications; however, these tools
must be selected in conjunction with the processor, operating system, and user' interface.
The final componeni of the CIS architecture involves the use of a netw~rk. The network
removes requests from the client to the server, and then transports the results back to
the client. The CIS design requires the selection of the type of network, (e.g. Token
Ring, Ethernet, etc), a transport protocol, and the networking equipment.

Once the data volume has been identified then the proper network equipment such as
routers, bridges and hubs can be sized and selected. Important factors to consider in
selecting this equipment include the mean time between failure, as well as compatibility
and interoperability with other systems it must connect to now or in the future. In
addition, a network protocol must be' selected which will allow ~or the most effective
transfer of data as well as compatibility with other systems. A protocol is a set of
standard rules and procedures that Jets computer speak to one another. The major ones
include IPX/SPX which is associated with the Netware Operating system, TCP/lP which
is associated with Unix and Windows NT operating systems, and APPC which is
associated with IBM operating systems., The careful selection of the network equipment
and protocol i~ instrumental in obtaining the least cost solution for interconnecting CIS
applications across the Wide Area Network (WAN).
Wide Area Networking
The linking of client/s~rver applications from one building local network (LAN) to an-
other.is accomplished across the wide area network (WAN). Some of the options for:
interconnecting IANs across the WAN are:
. Dial-up analog telephone lines
· Leased analog Jines
, . Switched 56 digital seIVices
. T.IlFractional T.l digital service
· Integrated Services' Digital Network (ISDN)'
· Public Data Networks
· Radio frequency communications
· Cable TV Network
., City Fiber Metropolitan Area Network (MAN)
Dial.up analog Circuits provide the lowest level of communications between physically
disparate locations. These arc the most economical methods for communicating among
,City departmentS, yet provide very inconsistent service and limited data rates.
A leased analog circuit provides a reliable service, thus eliminating a common complaint
about dial.up lines. It caD be conditioned, enabling communications at a higher rate of
speed (e.g., 14.4 or 19.2 kb (thousands of bits) per second.
A Switched 56 digital service enables more reliable and higher speed communications at

T-l/Fractional T-l digital service. : Alternatively, the City could support data tr~ffic
. between principal locations on a Tlline. A Tlline supports up to (24) 56 kb/s for a
maximum of 1.54 Mb/s transmission capacity. If less than 24 channels are required, then
fractional T-~ can be purchased which provides increments of 56 kb/s.
r-,
i .
Public data networks can provide users with variable services including X.25, and frame
relay which are transmit data in packets. This allows for increased flexibility to
accommodate data traffic bursts between lANs. Frame relay service can provide high
flexibility in data traffic from a 56 Kb/s to 1.5 Mb/s.

Integrated Services Digital Network provides a digital service with dial.up 'capabilities.' The
bandwidth can be purchased in (2) 64 Kb/s increments for basic seIVice.
Radio freque~ communications can be utilized for line of sight data communications.
The existing systems provide up to 2.0 Mb/s transmission capacity for communications
between buildings and do not incur recurring costs'to the city. Note that mobile police
computers will generally be limited to 9,600 baud tt:ansmission rate today. .

The Cable 1V option is an especially attractive one when municipalities have agreements
with the local franchise which require them to support public organizations, including
providing drops at all City locations.
The remaining option, a City Fiber Metropolitan Area Network, would appear to be a
feasible alternative for linking the Police Department and the City Hall. Although not
, inexpensive, it will enable over 100 Mbit communications between the two locations,
support putting all City Hall locations on a single Local Area Network, and provide
capacity for future voice, data, and video applications as well. It would enable the City to
make the DEe computers nodes on a City network, permitting high speed data
applications for major City functions, as well as for office automation functions.
Internet
Although it was originally designed for University researchers, the Internet is now open
to a range of commercial services and is fast becoming the de. facto national data super-'
highway. The use of the network varies widely among users, but primary uses include
access to global E-mail between users, information seIVices such as Mead LexisfNexis
retrie~al, as well as file transfer between other users such government ag~ncies.

Basically, the Internet is a group of networks connected to one another and to the
backbone, which is operated by Advanced Network and Services (ANS). Several
'commercial providers, have established the commercial Internet Exchange (CIX) and
have agreed to exchange information over their networks. '
The Police department can obtain ac.cess to this data superhighway by contacting one of
the service providers, obtaining a network address, and loading the appropriate, software
on the PC. II
Image Process!ng
.'
Microfilm and microfiche technologies are increasingly being supplanted by electronic
imaging'systems, which use computeT technology in cOnjunction with, optical disk storage .,
to store and retrieve document images. A typical image processing system contains five
functional components: " ,
· A document scanner
. A document storage processor
.. Storage devices and media
. Workstations
· Plotters and printers
Image processing systems may be either standalone or integrated with the City's existing
information system. Although most currently installed systems are standalone, the trend '
is toward larger, integrated systems (i.e., workstations and networks) that rely on ,
standard architecture and components.
As with the older technologies, the driving force behind the development of image pro-
cessing systems has beeD the desire to reduce the Deed for paper. The Clearwater Police
Department continues to generate a large amount of paper despite its use of computers.
In fact, the use of paper negates some of the advantages inherent in computer.based
systems. Imaging systems may ultimately improve ~e City's data manipulation methods
by b~ging the so-called Itpaperless office" much closer to reality.'
Imaging applications are effective when either: (1) large amounts of paper can be elim-
inated; or (2) document processing requires frequent access or retrieval by a variety of
people. The Police Departments Records Division may appear to be a good candidate
, for this technology.

The cost of an imaging system can be partially offset by the reduction in time required '
for manual record keeping activities, and the ability to transmit images on a subscription
basis to citizens and other interested parties. Independent studies indicate that staff
productivity can increase by 20% when imaging systems are implemented1. Further
benefits may accrue to the public if the City implements a Public Information Utility
cOncept.

It should be noted that the State of Florida currently requires that optical disks he
copied every 10 years if they are being utilized to store documents subject to lengthy
retainage schedules.
System Architecture
The System Design takes into account the issues which were highlighted in Section In.
,The servers shown in Exhibit V-B will incoIporate the specifications described ~ Exhibit
V~E, Section 4, where they will he able to store 'data in multiple gigabytes. The bus-
mastering architecture will be such that they will proVide rapid response time. The .
serverS will be running primarily on UNIX or some open operating system as described
in section Exhibit V~E Section 3, in order to facilitate portability of applications.

However, if an application is found which meets all the user requirements but does not
run on UNIX , the network architecture will allow connection of that server and connec-
tivity from any workstation. This provides the Police department \\ith the flexibility of
not being locked into a single vendor 'solution (e.g. Unix, AS/400, etc.).
The Police servers may initially be connected to City Hall to access to City Financial
selVers via a radio frequency communications network such as AT&T Wavelan (if
additional communications components are acquired). This traffic will be monitored to
avoid bottlenecks. However, an Inter~lAt'l communications device (router) will allow for
the upgrade of the communications medium to City Fiber Connection (presently being
negotiated with GTE) or other high speed public data semce.
A secure remote access to the network will be provided by means of a message switch
server which will allow any remote user to connect to the selVer by radio frequency and
enter a session as if they were local thus allowing users with laptop computers to retrieve
or upload data. '

Generally, the preferred approach for organizations today is to adopt a staD;dards-based
technology direction, utilizing as much of Open Systems architecture as is available and
practicable. Such an approach results in hardware independence and interoperability
from one machine to another. The Unix operating system, promoted by the Open
Software Foundation, has been the flag-bearer for Open Systems, but Microsoft Windows
is the de facto standard. However, the ultimate desktop operating system has not truly
been defined yet.
"
There is a strong movement away from closed proprietary systems towards more open
systems that allow increased flexibility. Given industry standards and open architectures,
the open systems concept is rapidly gaining worldwide support. This will provide for
increased flexibility,' protection of previous investments in information technology~ and a
wide range of multi-vendor hardware and application choices.
Standards are an absolute necessity for multivendor connectivity. Standards provide the
open architecture, protocol independence and standard interfaces needed to guarantee
basic functionality - users can transfer files, send mail, and perform basic network
operations. Open systems also provide multivendor interoperabiIity, support for
distributed applications and basic network services.
To solve this multivendor connectivity problem. the International Standards Organization
(ISO) (Refer to the Glossary for a description of the P~eceding terms) is developing a
set of international standards bascd on the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI)
reference model that will be a dominant force in communications in the 1990's. The
goal of these standards is to create a suite of international protocol standards that can be
used by every vendor, ensuring multivendor connectivity.
'To date, the most completc O~I profiles have been defined by governments. In 1987,
the United States Congress passed a law th,at chartered the National Institute of
Standards (NIST) to create a Federal Information Processing standards (FOSIP) based
on OS!.
This law also required all government agencies to buy OSI.based products beginning two
years after the publication of the PIPS. NIST published PIPS 146, which defines the
U.S. Government Open Systems Interconnection Profile (U.s. GOSIP), in August 1988.
As of August 1990, the federal government could not buy a network that is not
compliant with GOSIP. Beginning in 1994, TCPIIP, OSfl, and Windows NT are

,[ , acceptable to the Federal Government.
While the OSI standards become final the U.S. Defense Department's Advanced
Research Projects Agency (ARPA) has adopted the TCP/IP protocols for the Defense
Data Network (DDN). This protocol has been adopted by almost every major hardware
and software manufacturer and' has thus become the de-facto industry standard. It
supports wide area network (WAN) communications under FIPS 146 as well as,Local
Area Network Communications (LAN) using Ethernet.

Other standards necessary for a high value network include:
. Network Message Service
The ability to exchange messages in standard formats enables interpersonal
communications and supports networked applications, making it an important part
of the network. To support these messaging capabilities OS! has defined the
Message Handling Services (MHS) (CenT X.400). The X.400 standard has two'
, major components: the Message Transfer Agent (MTA) and User Agent (VA).
The MTA !outes the messages while the UA is used in mail applications.
. Network File Transfer,
FTAM (ISO 8571) is one of the most important OSl applications. FrAM defines
a file transfer facility for exchanging information between multivendor equipment.
. Network Directory Services
A directory service simplifies the user interface to the network. It enables it single
network logon and allows users to access network resources regardless of, their
location. Directory services also simplify network management for the network
administrator by keeping a global database of,network users and services..
DirectOlY services enable transparent access by providing a database of services
that allows users to transparently locate seJVers. To meet these needs, the OS!
standards provide a definition for Directory Services under the CCI1T X.SOO
standard protocols. '
. Network Management
Network Management is one of. the most critical areas of open systems design. In
a truly open environment, systems should not only interoperate, they should be

manageable through interoperable tools as well. Effective network management is
based on' the ability of network management systems to communicate with
network resources, enabling configuration, reconfiguration, diagnosis and
maintenance regardless of the vendor.

To meet these goals, OSI has defined the Common Management Information
Protocol (CMIP) and Common Management Information Services (CM~S).
However the de.facto standard has become the simple network management
Protocol (SNMP) and has been adopted by almost every major vendor.

SelVer Operating System
An operating system is the computeT software that controls the execution of
programs and their interaction with computer peripherals. There are several
prevalent operating systems available for network servers, these include MV8
from IBM, 08/400 from IBM, VMS from Digital, OS/2 from IBM, Windows NT
from Microsoft, UNIX from Unix International and UNIX OSF/l fro~ the OpeD
Software Foundation.
MVS and 081400 represent closed operating systems in that they Will only execute
on IBM machines. VMS is proprietary since traditionally only executed on DEe
equipment (although an open version has been developed). OS/2 has been ported
to other machines and is thus open but since its introduction to market in 1987 it-
has had a limited set of applications written to it. Microsoft Windows NT,
although a late comer, has many of, the inherent elements of Unix but since it is
developed by a single company, Microsoft, it is easy to understand and support by
a multitude of vendors. However the system is still its first release and has yet to
, be proven.
Unix has for years been' a non-standard standard because of the many different
versions which existed for each vendor, (e.g., UNIX from Novell and UNIX ,
OSF/l from OSF). However, within the last year almost all manufacturers have
begun to plan for a common set of programming interfaCes (API) known as Spec
1170. This is intended to provide usC?rs with the assurance that any product they
buy that's called ,UNIX is Spec 1170 compliant. However that doesn't mean other
operating systems not specifically called "UNIX" won't be compliant, as well. IBM
and Hewlett Packard, for example, plan to comply with Spec 1170 and will submit
conformance testing, but they have not announced any plan to give up their
re~pective "AIX" and "U)(l' labels.

Efforts to further expedite the unification of UNIX similar to AT&T System V
have been reached by creating a set of standards which all manufacturers must
adhere to and the Federal GovernInent supports, these are known as IEEE
(Portable System Interface for Computer Environments) or POSIX, of which
Microsoft Windows NT adheres to. Due to these reasons the federal government
has chosen multiple operating systems to include OS/2, UNIX, and Windows NT
as usable operating systems.
However since UNIX is moving towards standardization with Spec 1170, and
Windows NT offers the same UNIX features from a single vendor, these two
operating systems are the strongest contenders for open selVer operating systems.
· Workstation Operating,System
The de-facto industry standard 'operating system for workstations is MS-DOS. It
is a mature ~d stable environment supported by more than 50,000 commercial
and internally developed corporate applications. In fact, more applications have
been written for DOS than for any other computing environment. The current
installed base is more than 90 million users at the end of 1993. DOS will become
public domain software in January, 1995.
. End-User interface
The Graphical end user interface has been demonstrated to improve the
productivity of computer users and MS-DOS is the current de..facto standard with
over 90 million installations worldwide. With these two facts the use of the
Graphical User Interface (GUI) from Microsoft, Windows 3.X which operates
under MS-DOS is the industry standard GUI for DOS machines. However, the
new emphasis in the computer industry is for 32 bit workstation and software
architectures. Windows 4.X will be a full 32 bit GUI based operating system. If
however, there is need to run a 32 bit GUI based operating system that runs on
multiple platform types, then Windows NT 3.1 is available.
The technological trends and standards suggest a data processing system that is
~pen to various vendors, thereby giving the user the ability to shop for the best
solution, as opposed to having to accept the solution and price of a single vendor.
The new system allows for modular or Itscalablelt growth, so that the user only .
needs to add processing capacity as they need it. The data is kept closer to tbe
control of the end-user thus allowing a sense of control over the computing
, resources.

Bus Mastering, RAID-5, PCI, or EISA bus.
6. Factors to consider when selecting the Application SelVer:
. Hardware should provide the ability to expand within one operating system
. Hardware should provide the option to install non-proprietary operating system
. ,Hardware base should allow high quality programmer productivity tools to execute
. Hardware should allow a wide variety and availability of DBMS so~are
7. CD.Rom drive
5. Backup Systems
1. The Information Systems staff will provide sufficient backup' computer power to
operate critical systems (such as police' dispatch) should' the main system fail;
2. Full backup power and cooling generation will be kept available to operate the

5. The active hubs will interface with the NOS to provide diagnostic ,and SNMP
system management throughout.
7 Database
1. The database management system (DBMS) methodology chosen will be used for
all Police applications to the maximum extent possible.
2. An orderly conversion plan for current systems to a database system should be
implemented.' ,
('1' ,

...
3. All Dew applications should be compatible with the DBMS to the extent possible.
When an application package is selected, a strong preference will be given for
packages that utilize the Police DBMS. If this condition cannot be met, and there
is a need for interface to applications operating in the DBMS environment,' there
'must be some mechanism for interface between the non.DBMS application and
the DBMS 'application.

1. Unless a costjbenefit analyses proves differently, commercially available systems
supported by viable vendors are to be preferred over systems developed in-house.
2. Any packages developed, whether on a custom basis for the Police department by
outside vendors or purchased off the shelf, must be fully documented, including
source code listings, training manuals, etc., and turned over to Information

SECTION VI
HIGH PRlORfIY PROJECTS
Various system requirements were identified during the course of the division intetviews
and Department.wide planning process.,' ' '
,
, .I
, On subsequent pages are listed prionty tasks for the Department. The sequen~ is based
upon several factors, not all of which have to do with their importance; e.g., some tasks
must precede others.
Background information about the present project may be helpful. It began with two
major components: '
. Strategic Planning (as reflected in this document)
· SYstems Development (requirements analysis, selection, and implementation). for
Computer Aided Dispatch and related subsystems:
, ,
..
o Computer Aided Dispatch
o E-911 Interface
o FCIClNClC Interface
o Additional Regional Interfaces
o Message Switch
o'Mapping/GIS System Interface
o Records Management Interface
, 0 Daily Activity Reporting
o Electronic Mail,
o Management ~tatistics/Exception Reporting
o Office Automation Integration
o Report Writer
o Warrant Record Access
"
As intetviews 'with the divisions proceeded, it quickly became ~vident that deficiencies
with the Department's Records Management systems are as significant as are those With
the dispatch ,system. As indicated in Section III, records deficiencies include: (1)
Network/database unreliability; (2) Lack ,of integration among applications; (3)

The C1eatwater Police Department is typical of many law enfofcement agencies in that
their existing Information Systems provide inadequate information to management. They
are also deficient, as incident capture and reporting systems, and lack widespread accessi-
bility for providing needed information to staff. The laptops require use of a specially'
designed incident form which does not provide for ease of use, or satisfy other depart-
mental data requirements.
The present systems inhibit the work of the Investigations Division, whose records
searches are often very time consuming when performed'manually. They serve more as
r~positories for selected information (and even that is limited to two years), rather than
, as aids in conducting investigative procedures.
Asa result of these concerns, we met with the IMG Committee and worked out a
general plan for upgrading the Police Department's Records Management capabilities, as
indicated on Exhibit VI-A.

Applications planned for neaf term implementation include all the major Records
Management Systems (Incident Reporting, Uniform Crime Reporting, Crime Analysis,
etc.), plus Personnel Management, Mobile Computer Terminals (MCf's)~ and other
functions. Some functions planned for later implementation may be moved into the
current proj~ct if time and moneys permit.

Selection of new Records Management Systems (RMS) coincident with the selection of ,3
new. CAD System Will be very important" as there should ~e substantial integration
between the two major Police Department functions. Evaluation of CAD requirements
can also inch~de determination of Deeded data elements for. Records, and assurance of
interfaces and compatibility of computer architecture with Records. J
Like CAD, RMS enjoys significant benefits if linked to ,the other system. RMS 'is
dependent for initial 'incident capture upon CAD, and the selection of an RMS system at
the present time will allow for achievement of compatible' systems utilizing common '
'tables, mapping systems/geofile structure, and operating procedures. '

covered by the plan.. The High Priority Projects relating the present systems development
effort, which were described in the previous section of this report, are identified on
Exhibit VII.A. The timing and priority for performance of specific projects will be
dependent upon several factors, including: ,

Performance of prerequisite tasks
Availability of CleaIWater staff resources
Availability of funds
We recommend that the information systems pl~n be updated or appended, on at least
an annu3I basis, reflecting accomplishment of prior tasks and identification of new Police
Department needs. This might take the form of updating Exhibit VII-B, a~d Section V.
For each specific task identifie~ in the attached schedule, a detailed project work plan
should be developed, llsing a standard systems development methodology, to administer
the project. .
Throughout the systems planning effort, care was taken to define management inform a-
,tion,systems alternatives w~ich consider constraints in technology, staffing and financial
resources, and the costs and benefits of performing specific projects. "
The following methodology and assumptions were used to prepare the schedules
associated with the plan:
"
Cost estimates were based upon published prices, where available, and estimates
based upon our prior experience
A p~rticular approach was anticipated for each pr~ject; e.g., package software

Information Systems Direction
Generally, the thrust of the information systems plan is to continue and accelerate the
direction already embraced by the Police Department. The Department 'enjoys the
support of effective information systems leadership from the Information Systems
Commander.
Development of Department-wide networking will be key in the coming years to enabling
professional and clerical staff to take advantage of information systems advanc.es, and
enable vastly improved sharing of data among departments.
We have recommend initiating a significant effort for acquisition of departmental micro.
computer products where appropriate; this effort will complement and enhance the'
networking efforts.

Budget Implications
[""

['>
.-
L.
[,
!'" ,
, ,
~.J .
L
,
The plan proyides for phased implementation of mformation systems over several 'years.
Based upon the present plans, we provide on Exhibit VII-B estimates for expenditures in
connection with the systems development project. These' estimates take into consider-
ation the planned tasks, the costs for which are spread over the anticipated task time
, frames on Exhibit VII-A.
While they represent a significant increase in data processing expenditures, it is impor-
tant to recognize that Computer Operations has recently been underfunded' relative to
departmental needs. Many of the budget estimates result from the projects identified on
Exhibit Vl-B, and additional radio cost estimates on Exhibit VII-C.

Additional Recommendations '
In addition to the recommendations implied by the plan, we wish to emphasize certain
needs, and identify several other areas in which we, r~commend changes and improve-
ments~
Consider making the IMG Committee a permanent fixture (with possible rotating
membership) to act as a steering committee in determining the allocation of
computer resources and the priorities for implementation.
Acquire uniform mM-Compatible microcomputerS from major vendors; arrange
for a single, local, source of maintenance support for laptops.
,Acquire uniform office automation software.
Rely on standard application systems rather than custom.developed software to
the greatest possible extent.
'Restrict, to the greatest extent possible, future computer software acquisitions to
those products ~g' under DOS or Unix, or other future operating systems
meeting POSIXIOpen Systems standards. ,
Review and update Police Department computer policies and procedures,
including security and disaster/recovery planning.
Adopt standards. based computer infrastructure products, e.g., Open Systems and
UL LevelS cabling, to ensure compatibility with future computer products.
Incorporate standards in new Police Department building/cabling plans, including
consideration of location of computer and PBX equipment, and cabling of all
rooms for, Local Area Network capabilities.
Continue to develop associations, like the Investigators County ACISS arrange-
ment, to enable the Police Department to achieve economies of sCale and
improved information through shared systems efforts.
Incorporate all Police Department staff into a single computer network.

CURRENT SYSTEMS
Computer Assisted Dispatch (CAD): Developed in-house in 1982; Executes on' an Unisys A6
NCIClFCIC: Federal and State centralized crime database; Two access ports available Cor the
Department
PinellasCounty Justice IDformation System (PCJIS): County database providing integrated
information on various government services pertinent to an individual . ' .
Ericsson G.E. Radio System: 800 Mhz tronked radio system used to communicate with patrol and
police personnel; capacity for 44 groups '
LAN.based records and office automation: Detailed case resolution information as well as inter-
d~ion communication (through E-mail) provided by Netware based Local Area Network
Office Automation systems including WordPerfect; Lotus 1-2-3. and WordPerfect Office
KEY FINDINGS
Dispatch staff shift deployment includes 2.3 dispatchers, 2-4 senior operators..2 information
positions. up to 5 call takers. and a shift supeIVisor '
CAD System concerns include: .
. A-Series computer utilized for CAD is an obsolete, proprietary system
. E-911 System provides no ALl/ANI Interface to CAD
.
. High Risk Calls: System is cumbersome to use and requires patrol officers to call back to
complete the information on the particular high risk site in order to maintain an accurate
database; in addition, there is limited space for entering remarks information
, . Data Retrieval: Cryptic command is required to obtain data from systeIIl
. NCJCIFCIC Access: Two terminals exist at Communication center yet only one terminal is
available during the day at communications since the other is used at the records area until 4:30
p.m.
. Historical Data:. Requires long search time and the data is inconsistent between the CAD and
Records systems since there is no interface between them; additionally, because of limited
storage nnd processing capacity at the host) the records (or 1993 have been removed. thus
limiting tbe dispatch's capabilities to search the data or appe~d information to previous caSes
. Call Holding: No timers are available to dispatcher to prompt for on-going call, officer safety ,

No ability to perform dispatcher simulation training exists. exte~ding the training schedule
There is a lack of audit and access controls
Repossession and Impound entry does not provide for address verification
,
Office automation findings include:
.. Limited computer resources are available for office automation due to obsolete workstations: all
PC's are either 286 or limited 386 generation with small hard drive (20 Mb disk)
. The Dot Matrix: Printers arc slow and noisy for printing incident reports or BOLO information
, · Word Perfect Mail has no spell check capability, while the W.P. scheduler and calculator
functions have limited capability and are rarely used .
, ,
· Division is experimenting with the use of LotuS 1-2--3 but has not had enough traiDing in its use
Inefficient computer/manual processing capability results in as much as a.50% reduction in
computer-related employee prOductivity'

Voice and data mobile radios. Fe~ling is that the current radio system does not provide adequate
in-vehicle portable coverage,' and so if the truoked radio system is used as a transport nie'chanism.
either the current radio would be required to share voice and data with voice priority. or a second
radio would be required'. . , . ' ,

Given the highly loaded nature of certain positions in the dispatch ceDter~ it is likely that the

There is a need 'for better data classification and retrieval (e.g., type of entry for burglary)
Many fields in the database can be over-written, resulting in erroneous statistical data
Division activities are adversely affected by del~yed entry of Patrol reports
There are no automatic checks and balances to ensure an needed reports are entered into the
records system '
The Division laCks a manageme,nt system to track: cases. detectives and activities
Due to the volume and cumbersomeness of thc pawn system processing (40.000 per year).
complete utilization of this system is not being made

Laptop data upload and information distn'bution process is cOnvoluted and requires multiple steps;
in addition, the procedures lead to repeated corruption of the database when it is accessed during
diskette upload
[~

KEY FINDINGS
Patrol officer Laptop diskettes are sent in from the remote stations for upload into the LAN by
courier. This leads to potential delays for entry of crucial data
Upload process does not include verification of data between diskettes and the integrated database
Accident Reports was developed in "WP Informs" ,
The VCR reporting system requires extensive human intcIVention and does not provide automated
SUnmlary information reporting , ,

The Police Department is collecting about 5100,000 each year for fees; there should be an
integrated cash receipting system to control both the fiscal aspects ,(AR) and the statistical aspccts
(e.g.. how many permits and how much is collccted for alarm permits)

Citations are paid at the front' counter; paymenis are not tracked effectiVely
The Clipper Offense database system is a single user system lacking record locking capabDiti~s;
thus. no one can enter data from the desktop PCs in the department; additionally. there are not
, enough PCs to accommodate the department '
The report verification procedure does not check for the accuracy of the information in the report
"but rather for data entry errors (e.g. LN instead of Street)

. Duplicate records in database
, ,
. Corrupted database, indexes
. Slow database update response time caus,ed by inadequate workstation processing capacity
Ineffident co~puter processing results in as much as a 50% reduction in Computer-related
employee productivity ,
The upload procedures causes repeated corruption to the database when the database is accessed
, during diskette upload
The PoliCe department pays City CIS a substantial amount for computer support. but may not
receive commensurate services in return
Computer operations assumes responsibility for, data entry and report printing for each of the
divisions (e.g.., equipment inventory information at Communications is typed into WordPerfect at
Communications. and Computer Operations enters it mto the database)
The Police Department has 7 sites around the CitY which require MIS support
There are three staff membe'rs and one supervisor to provide all Police MIS support functions
Support functions include:
. IAN AdmiDistiation
· COBOL Programming on tbe A6
· Dataoase management and programming
· Office Automation software support
· Hardware troubleshooting and support
· Peripheral equipment support including changing of to~er on Laser printe~
· Laptop troubleshooting and support
. Staff have not received fon:na1 training in advanced databases or I.AN Administration

KEY FINDINGS
Division data requirem<<-:nts are for three separatc classifications of information: (1) ,Confidential
(a~ive criminal) investigations. (2) Intelligence (temporary records). and (3) Business files
(Occupational License backgrounds)
Information must be secure because of (1) Confidential informants. (2) Active confidential
investigations. and (3) Intelligence information
Access is ou a Right to Know and Nced to Know. strong potential for misinterpretation and
misuse
Officers feel they spend excessive time typing repol18 and, en~ering intelligence dataj they find
present laptops difficult to work with' '

division
Thirty percent of division activity involves assists with other divisions and agcncies
,
, Intelligence submissions (Threat assessments) are maintained in cach individual unit, identified by
prefix (TAI, Year. and oonsecutive numbers. Entries are titled with a numeric identifier. All are
temporary entries. '
Confidential Investigations have a separate designatcd Dumber. Rcport system
, "
Intelligence IDes are maintained under a numbering system (aa.bbb.cc.ddd) as follows:
. aa - Category (ie.. group)
. bbb - Sub-category (e.g., gang)
· cc - Source (e.g.. media)
,. ddd - Supplement N~ber
Division maintains its own evidence records on PC at substation; network access is needed;
cvidence disposal prompt is needed '
. "
Requirement {or ~ Management {or Narcotics cases is similar to requirements for rnvestigation
Division; however. data is transferred over to Department records system only after arrests are
made ' .
Data volumes inc1ude" 100.000 names; 400 Intelligence Cases with 1.000 supplements/year (can
, include. 100-200 n~es each), 500 narcotics cases/years, 700 Thr~at Assessment & other caSes
SHORT TERM NEEDS

INCIDENT DATA ENTRY AL.TERNATIVES
'"
The value of having incident data completely loaded ipfu.files ,on a c~n~al
computer system, accessible by investigators] prosecutors] crime analysis.
units] and police management, is that it is possible to eliminate substantial
costs associated with manual record storage, processing and retrieval.
Eliminating the reliance on the paper ~aiJ not only saves time and
therefore money but also decreases the likelihood of losing records and of
failing to make the right decisions due to the Jack of information at hand.
Most major departments have also concluded thatin order to get the full
benefit"of fully computerized records, they must be entered w~thin a short
time (less than 8 hours) after the incident occurs, or there will still need to
be a second data distribution channel built around the paper copy. If the
paper distribution channel is not eliminate~, then the cost savings
potential of computeriz~d incident rep~rts will not be achieved.
It is also clear from many prior studies that the likelihood of clearing a
case by arrest decays as a function of the' passage of time, so the sooner a
case is entered and assigned to an investigator] the higher is the likelihood
. of a successful closure. Thus, to achieve the objectives of cost reduction,
data integrity] an~ increased apprehension rates, the rapid availability of
a computer-based incident report is highly desirable in any department.
However, having reached this conclusion only raises the question of how
best to enter the data into the computer system. Agencies that have taken
- the approach of.hiring data entry clerks to key in the information iTom the
incident report generated in the field have commonly found that the
number of clerks available is insufficientl 'and the lag time commonly,
experienced in obtaining a'pproval for and hiring staff for this purpose is
such that there always seems to be a backlog of reports that grows rather
, than diminishes. Over time, it is not uncommon to experience delays on
the order of weeks or months in m~ny departinents. This kind of delay
defeats the purpose of computer-based records managementl since the
. manual tasks of copying and distributing the records must continue in the
face of such b~cklogs. The computer in this scenario is a9ding more work
than it is value to the process. '
This report describes the experiences of two major police departments in
taking different paths to the entry of p'olice incident reports into a
centralized computer system. The report is focused on the operational
experience of the two agencies and on the costs and benefits of the
alternative approaches to entering information. Both agencies have

experienced substantial benefits from the full computerization of incident
reports.
In the Phoenix police Deparhnent, a standard process of dictating reports
, either directly to a secretary or to a recording system has been adopted. '
In the Houston Police Department, direct entry of incident information is
. accomplished by individual officers using laptop computers. Both
depa'rbnents are extremely satisfied with the approach they have taken, a
point that should 00 remembered in evaluating these alternative'data
entry mechanisms.
This report will attempt to describe the experience of both agencies and
compare the resuits as far as is possible. It should be noted at the outset'
that there is little hard statistical data available at either department to
back up the observations and opinions of the participants.

Report Entry By Dictation--the Phoenix Experience
The general appro'ach in Phoenix, mandated by standard operating
procedure, is that officers will dictate reports whenever possible. The
officers are connected directly to a secretary as the preferred mode, and to
a recording system in overload conditions. The secretary keys the
information into the mainframe incident system, so that the data is
available on line as quickly as possible. The following paragraphs
describe the various aspects of this experience. '
Environment
'. Phoenix has a population of 1,049,000, and covers 448 square miles.~ The
Police Department has 2,010 sworn officers and is planning to add 228.
There are 638 non-sworn personnel. The department is divided into 6
precincts. Community based policing is a priority for the deparhnent.
The department handles 1.5 million calls for service per year, which result
in 750,000 events. In 1993, 649,1~7 calls for service! resulted in a dispatch
of a unit, arid 88,973 calls were handled by the call~back (Teleserv) unit.
Incident reports amount to about 6?0 o'riginal reports and 550
supplements per average day.
The Phoenix PD developed a system known as PACE that calls for the
complete entry of all incident information, including narrative, into the
central computer. The c'o.mputer is ~ Unisys A16,machine, and currently
uses about 13 gigabytes of storage. The software has been self~developed,
with a team of 10 people who have been programming the system for
several years.

Operations
Following the determination that a report is to be written and the
assignment of a Deparhnental Report (DR) Number, the field officer takes
appropriate notes during the 'investigation of the call. If the caU is a
higher priority call, the officer is required to find a phone and dictate the
report immediately. Certain low priority caUs still result in the
submission of a hand-written incident report The officer gives the victim
the DR number on a form to allow the victim to call with more
, information or to discuss the case with the investigator as appropriate.
When the officer calls the dictation line, every effort is made to have a
secretary available to take the dicta~on in order to resolve any
ambiguities as the report is being entered ~nto the system. The secretary
follows the officer's dictation, filling in blanks on a screen that creates 'a
temporary file to capture the'data without causing a delay in the
'transcription. It was estimated that the duration of the average dictated
call is 30 minutes.
Following completion of the entry, the report is "finalized/, causing a
check of the name index to detect previously entered names and of t~e
property and vehicles files to determine if the property or vehicles are
listed in stolen records. After the appropriate updates to the indexes, the
incident data is stored in the database and is then available for immediate
access by the investigators. All inc~dents entered are immediately routed
to the case management system, creating a queue for the appropriate
investigative unit. The incident is also printed out in the precinct of
origin.
'.. There are 59 secretaries taking incident dictation, and the departm,ent
plans to hire 6 more secretaries. There are also 7 people doing UCR
classification, although 53% of the incidents are automatically classified
by the computer based on the dictated information. Prior ~o the
'implementation ot'this system, there were 26 people in records handling
the direct entry of incident reports. To, make the dictation system v"'ork,
30 neW' people were hired. The Phoenix Police Department records
section contains 170 people. These individuals are also responsible for'
entering FI cards, although the new MDT system currently being
implemented will allow for direct entry of FI c~rds from the MDT. It
takes 6 weeks of training for a secretary to be proficient in entering
incident da,ta ,using the dictation syst~m.
System Benefits
The Phoenix PD estimates that it saves $770,000 per year by the full
computerization of Incident reports due to the reduction in the costs of the
manual processi~g tnca was'required pri~r to the implementation of

PACE. Additional cost savings in lost time due to illness, mailing,
driving to records to get a 'report, and off-site record retrieval was also
identified.' A key benefit is the immediate availability of informatio~ for
investigative follow-up and for providing citizen service. The department
also believes that PACE results in the"quicker service of warrants.
Other stated benefits include the time saved in finding lost files, and in
preparing documents for microfilming. Phoenix believes that the
dictation of a report saves the officer's time in submitting data on
incidents.
, ,
Phoenix'has increased revenue by providing a quick capability to deliver
incident reports to citizens and insurance companies.
Implementation Lessons Learned
Training was a difficult part of the implementation of PACE. The
'department acknowledged that it made a mistake in conducting training
, too,far ahead of system implementation, resulting in required re-training
'after implementation. The order of training was also a problem, in that
patrol officers were trained before their management knew what the
, program was about"and therefore manag~ment support was not in ,place
pri~r to implementation in the' field. '
It has been recognized by the Phoenix Police Department that dictation is'
a separate,skill for which training can be delivered to improve the,
efficiency and accuracy of the dictation process.
There is still s~me apprehension in the Department regarding the
,. measures of effectiveness by which various par:ts of the program are
judged. The secretaries who take dictation, for example, seem to be
measured by throughput above quality, although the department believes
that overall incident rep~rt quality has improved with the PACE system.
Laptop Incident Entry--the Houston Experience
For three years, the Houston Police Department has been using laptop
computers ,to allow the officers to directly enter incident reports.
Perio~ically during a shift, the officers bring their floppy disks to 'a '
,transfer station (PC) and upload the incident information to the"
mainframe. A quality control unit checks the entered data, and all data is
immediately available to investiga~ors. , ' ,
Environment
Houston has a population of about 1.75 million people, and c<?vers 700
,square miles. The Houston Police Department has 4,200 sworn officers,
and is going to add 700 more by 1996. There are 1,900 Civilian employees.

In 1993, there were 1,417,825 calls for service. About 30% of the calls for
service 'are routed to and handled by the Teleserv unit without requiring a
dispatch. The field officers generate about 900 new original i'ncident'
, reports per day and 1200 supplements.
Houston implemented a computerized records system in 1980. Prior to
, the laptop project, all incident information, including narrative, was
entered directly into the system by keying in the data from the officer's'
hand-written report. Faced with a delay in entry of 5 to 14 days, the
department sought to achieve data availability in 8 hours or less using,
direct field entry. Initial systems were purchased starting in 1991 after
extensive field trials of different brands of computers. Full project roll-
out throughout the City was done in 1992. The initial acquisition budget
of $3.1 million was financed from funds received in asset forfeiture cases
related ,to drug enforcement operations. The department has now
deployed 1,600 laptops. There are also 2,200 MDT's installed in police
vehicfes. '
Houston wrote its own application software for the laptop incident
reporting project, using BASIC to create character-based entry screens that
required only standard DOS computers with minimum memory and dis~
space. The software also provides a geofile look-up for address ,validation
with a geofile resident on each laptop, and there are utility programs for
searching state penal codes, local traffic ordinances, and for finding,
commonly used telephone numbers. There is a limited word processing
capability within the application software. In addition, s,ome units also
have WordPerfect installed.
. Houston is a highly decentralized police department, relying on
substations to conduct the full range of police business in their respective
geographic areas.
The Houston PO records system currently runs on a Unisys 2200/500 '
mainframe with a DCP 624 communications front-end. The records
system software has been developed by the HPD. The CAD system runs
on DEC equipment and was supplied by PRC. The MDT network is
based on software written by HPD.
"
Operations
Field officers check out a ilkit" when thev come on duty that consists of a
. ~
laptop, carrying case, and batteries. The kit is returned at the end of the
shift, following a process similar to that used to issue portable radios.'
In Houston, the laptops are designed to be portable, and are not in any
way tied to the vehicle. As incidents occur,.the officers respond and
either take notes or directly \J'se the laptop in interviewing the victims. In
manv instances the officer will actually use the field choices on the screen,

showing them to the victim, to obtain more detailed and accurate suspect
descriptions from the victims. In cases where no immediate potential for
violence is present, and the officer ,can safely use the equipment to do so,
the interview is simply recorded using the laptop'instead of writing down
notes.
For serious cases, the officer completes the report on the laptop and goes
to one of the places in the city where there are 70 separate "transfer
stations" consisting of PC's configured to upload information directly into
the mainframe. For' minor cases, such as those consisting of reports taken
for insurance purposes, the officer waits until the end of the shift and then
uploads the incident information to the mainframe. The laptop software
includes batch files that allow the officer to make a copy on his or her own
~isk and keep this disk for later use in connection with any required court
testimony or other follow-up.
Initial plans in Houston caIled for the officers to turn in their disks and for
ther~ to be a staff of people assigned to do the uploading. Considering
input from the officers, this procedure was abandoned in favor of the
officers' doing their own uploading. They then knew the job had been
completed, and took ownership of the process of getting the data up to
the mainframe.
Prior to turning in the laptop kit, officers delete the incident reports they
have entered and retain the floppy disk on which has been recorded the
incidents they handled on that shift. Officers use a new diskette ab;out
, e~ery three months.
Once the incident report is uploaded to the mainframe it passes through a
.. staff review unit that operates as a quality contTol operati9n, and then the
report is frozen and cannot be changed. Only supplements can be u~ed at
this point to record changed information. There is no connection from the
incident report to a master name or o'ther index in the Houston police
records SYstem.
~
, Of the 126 people in central records, about 45 staff persons are assigned to
the staff review function, which is responsible for the quality control
function, UCR coding, validation checks. About 85% of their work deals
with quality control on th~ incident entTy program.
HPD issues a separate laptop a,nd software package for the Field Training
Officer(FTO) functions, designed to collect data on probationary pol~ce
officers going through the field tTaining and evaluation program. Each
~O has a laptop with which to generate daily evaluations of officer!;. At
this point, the, FTO software is simply used to generate and print the hard
copy of the evaluations report, without any database transfer. Reports are
moved to floppy disk storage and are also kept on the hard diskduring

the evaluation process. There are 272 FTO's currently involved:in the
program.
Training of officers for the use of the laptops has been integrated into
academy training. There are computer labs at the academYI and elective
courses in D9S and related topics. All officers r~ceive one 8 hour block of
computer training in the use of the incident software.
HPD has obta'ined 3 year contracts for maintenance of the laptop units
beyond the manufacturers' original warranty which was one year for
most units. The cost for exte~ding the warr~nty in this way ha~' been
running about $45 per year per unit. Out of the 1300 original unitsl there
have been about 50 screen replacements not covered under warranty (at
about $1,000 per screen), and approximately another $50,000 for other
out-of warranty repairs, totaling about $100,000 per,year. This figure is
ex'peeted to decrease with the increased reliability of newer la'ptops. The
department has assigned a staff of two people to handle the repair work
on units. ,About 15-20 units are sent in per day to the central repair site.
Approximately 25% are fixed by the two individuals assigned, and,the
rest are returned to the dealer. ' A total of 4 laptops have been lost si~ce
the beginning of the project.
Benefits
The HPD estimated that the project would result in sa'ving 700 hours per
day in handling incident reporting and data entry. There has been'no
precise measurement of these estimated savings, 'but it is widely accepted
as being the case. HPD believes that the hand-written incident report in
. theircase w~s taking an average of 30 ~ninutes for the officer to complete
" the report,o and that the use of the laptop has reduced this to 15 minutes.
The central records unit was able to eliminate'ab01,it 25 positions (which
constituted about a 40% reduction in the work force dedicated to this
~nction) as a resul~ of implementing the laptop direct entry program.
, Furthermore, the data ~ntry positions that were in the substations ,
supporting incident and supplement entry at the substation level have not
been filled as attrition occurred in these positions. In many cases the
personnel were simply re-assigned to other duties. There is an estimated
saving of 36 positions in this' category. AdditionallYI about 15 positions in
, investigative units that were previously dedicated to data entry have been
re-assigned to other duties. The total savings from the laptop
implementation is about 76 positions.
The department has also experienced cost savings in the significant
reduction in floor space and storage as a result of relying on the
computerized version of the incident report

One of the consequences of the direct entry program that has evolved ,
because of the near real time entry of incident information is that Houston
has been able to redefine the role and mission of crime analysis around. .
producing quick analyses and summaries for managemen~ and operations
support. After a study of the information needs for operational response
to changing field conditions, a new set of reports has been defined that
give commanders a much more current picture of the events in areas for
which they have responsibility. The deparbne~t has set up a pilot project
where data is downloaded from the mainframe into a DataEase database
that facilitates the crime analysis work of generating pattern information
almost when the shift is complete. Preliminary reactions from the field ~
commanders indicate that this fast response time is invaluable in
controlling resources in their respective sectors of the city.
Implementation lessons learned
" ,
In its experimentation with the various different issues involving the
introduction of laptop computing, Houston has learned some valuable
lessons that will benefit other agencies electing this form of data entry.
, '
Houston attributes the success of this project to the intentional use of a
steering committee representing the different organizational units within
the, department. The programming staff took their complete direction
. from this steering committee, both in the design <;>f the screens for data
entry and in the, method of operation of the system. Ac~ording to the
programming staff, it was the involvement of the officers through the ,
steering committee and the individuals in the pilot test that made,the
system acceptable and work throughout the deparhnent as the system
,., .,j
was implemented fully. ' '
The method of transfe~ring incident data from the laptop that was finally
chosen was the floppy disk transfer. Experiments with plugging th~
laptop directly into a server to execute the transfer revealed problems
with the physical connection~-plugs and cables breaking~-to the point
where this experience was frustrating to the officers.
At least initially, officers we~e given a large degree of flexibility in the
entry of incidents. One of the undesirable consequences of this freedom
was that officers tended to skip some of th~ optional data fields and
simply type in the information in a narrative form, thus not providing
some of the information that was useful for crime analysis. '
The Houston PD believes that the ideal laptop would also replace the
,Mobile Digital Terminal units in the vehicles. At the moment, their
position is that there is no hard\vare on the market that would provide
this level of fun~tionalily.

Evaluatio~ of data entry options
Most police departments can jus~fy the full computerization of incident,
information in a timely fashion on the basis of the reduced cost of report
distribution, the increased database inte'grity, and the increased
useful;l1e~s of the information collected. Taking this as a 'premise, the
remaining issue is how best to transform t,he data collected by the
responding officer from raw notes to computerized information;
Assuming that the department has developed an enterprise repository for
containing and accessing the full incident report, there are three broad
approa~hes to da~ entry:
, 1. Post-shift data elltn}, characterized by manual report writing
coupled with adequ~te data entry personnel sufficient to enter
all incidents wit~in 8 hours follo\ying a shift
2. DictatioJl, where there is minimal note taking by the officer and
dictatio~ of the incident report to either a person entering data
'on-line pr to a recording system for subsequent entry
3. Field direct elltn} using a mobile computer with uploading to
the host repository arid quality control done by a cen~al,
reCords unit '
. ;
, .'
:..~ .
c"' '
l
, ,
, , ,
The selection,of one of these methods or a combination thereof will
depend on the objectives of the department. The factors that are most
obvious in selecting a particular approach are: (1) the'in'itial and on-'going
relative cost of the approach, (2) the relative advantages in maximizing
report quality, (3) other benefits accruing from' a particular choice. I
'. ,
"
Cost tradeoffs
, The cost of labor is obviously the largest on-going expense of incident
data collection. To evaluate any potential relative merits of the three
alternatives, it is necessary to focus on the processes for'accomplishing the
data h'ansformatio'n. The processes involve both offic~r time and clerical
time and can be evaluated by dividing the process into the following' '
steps:

Initial
note~taklng
Incident
Report
Preparation
Officer time includes the initial note-taking during
or immediately after responding to ariincident, and
the time spent in transforming the notes into an
incident report that can be submitted in 1,3ither
manual form or automated form.
Incident
Data
Entry
Records unit time includes any time required for
processing the incoming report and for actual data
entry if this step has not occurred in the field. The
lime spent on each task will vary as a function of
the data entry method and the nature of the '
incident being reported. Quality control wo'rk is
considered to part of the 'incident da ta entry
process.
, '
Incident
Report
Processing
Neither Houston PD nor Phoenix PD has collected any hard data to
determine the time spent in these separate processes. The estimates that
are being used have wide va,riations depending on the type of incident.
As a way 'of summarizing the opinions voiced, Houston believes that the
use of the laptops cuts the report preparation time on the part of the
officer down from 30 minutes to 15 minutes. Phoenix PD believes that the
average dictation lime takes 30 minutes. Prior data from St. Louis on its
dictation approach indicates an average of 16 minutes for dictating,
.:~eports. San Jose PD, in a well-documented study of.hand~writing vs.
laptop data entry found that report preparation averages 45 minutes
regardless of the methodology. It is probably not possible to draw any
conclusions from these data points given the lack of comparability based
on the types of incidents involved in these numbers.
If the note taking step is included in the analysis, the time required for
both note~taking and report preparation may be equivale~t under either
the manual data entry alternative or 'under a dictation method. It is
possible that direct entry via laptops would reduce the total time in these
two steps if a signific~nt percentage of incidents were entered directly on
the laptop without making any notes first.
,
Given the data fTom the San Jose study and the first.hand observations of
the people involved in Houston and Phoenix, it is probably safe to
conclude that dictation or laptop entry will not increase the time spent by
, officers in preparing incident reports. If this is the case, then the ,
comparison of the three alternatives can be based on the costs of clerical
time.

There is also I\() basis for comparison of data on clerical tiine spent in
processing and data entry, given the variations in types of incident
reports handled. However, there is a clearer pic~re of the relative time
spent in these functions for the different allernatives. It is reasonably safe
to assume that the data entry of a fulJ incident report from a hand~written
copy will take an average of 20 minutes. ' (Prior measurements from Mesa,
Arizona, and other agencies have confirmed this estimate.) The Phoenix
PD estimates that the dictation alternative takes an average of 30 minutes.
This relative difference is reasonable, given the fad that the officer has to
do the dictation while data entry is on-going, and one would intuitively
expecfsome greater time to be required than it would take for an "
experienced data entry person to enter a written report.
Laptop data entry eliminates the need for clerical labor in report
processing and data entry; however, there is not a total saving of staff
positions, due ,to the need for quality control work on the submitted
reports. This is likely to account for an average of 5 minutes per report,
using the relative estimates above.
As an example of the cost impacts of these relative numbers, we can
construct the following approximate model:
Assumptions:
number of hours per year for direct work per person = 1,500
average cost, including fringe benefits per person = $30,000
total incident reports per year = J 00,000
, ,
, T~en the cost of incident report processing and data entry for this
-example wO\lld be evaluat~d as follows for the three alternatives: '
Option time per reports total staff total cost
Icport " per hour per required of staff
year
Dictation 30 2 3,000 33 $990,000

these positions. For field data entry, there are the costs of the acquisition'
of laptops. Assuming a total cost of $5,000 per workstation (including
hardware software, interfacing), the .initial acquisition costs for the three

The l~ptop costs assume that, for our example of 100,000 reports per year,
there are 200 units deployed.
The equipment acquired generates maintenance costs as well. Assuming ,
a 10% annual maintenance cost, the total operating cost for each
a Itern a tive, would be:

: Viewed from this perspediv,e, the laptop approach would pay for itse'lf 'in

entry ~ethod.
Report Quality
The shortage of any data on report quality leaves only the possibility of
assessing differences by the expel'ience~ of those in involved in the
process. Incident report quality is a product of many factors, most ,
notab,ly including the extent to which managers expect quality in report
writing and mo~vate people accordingly. IUs influenced by trairifng, by
. the perceptions in the field of its importance, and by the tools available to
. the officers, including the report form itself. . .
The alternative of post-shift data entry'limits the report writing quality to
,the way the report is completed in the field. Data entry operators can do
little to add information that is not on the form itself, or to correct errors
where the reporting officer has made one. In-this kind ,of-process, report
, quality is also influenced by the job ,that the field sergean~ does in report
review prior to the report getting to the data ,entry staff. Improving report
, 'quality requires a good fo~m, training in report writing, supervisor
review and feedback, as well as a managementemphasis on good rep'ort

writing practices. There is no way to ensure that the 'required fields 'are
filled in except by supervisors checking 100% of the incident reports and'
rejecting those that are incomplete or incorrect.
On-line dictation imposes another level of review, done by the person
taking the dictation, to ensure that all required fields are entered. This is
particularly true if the data being entered in this fashion is co~nected to
required fields in the enterprise database. ' It is then not possible 'to
complete the entry without submitting the required information. It is also
likely that the person taking the dictation will help the officer make a
better report by asking for optional information if directed to do so. Since
the officer is on the phone during this process, information that might
have otherwise not been submitted could potentially be captured.
Laptop direct entry software can be designed to insist on fields being
entered, but this approach also has p~oblems since there are always
exce'ptions to the rule. A more positive effect on report quality seems to
have surfaced in Houston, where the officers are taking a high degree of
ownership over 'the report, and 'one might assume tha,t this factor will
contribute to ,higher report quality. Where laptop entered incident reports
are entered into a central system in a batch mode" there is no opporhtnity
for on-line editing and rejection of the report, so that mistakes found in ,
the quality control process have to be corrected at a later time. This
approach definitely shifts the burden to the quality control staff, where
, again there is no opportuni,ty to directly engage the officer to make an
addition or correction.
It is interesting to note that neither Phoenix, using the dictation model,
,nor Houston, using the laptop entry model, rely on field sergeant ~eview
and approval of reports prior to their submission and entry into the
system. Instead, both departments rely on feedback from the
investigators to the field sergeants regarding the quality of reports in
general or from particular individ~als.
There is no clear advantage to any of the alternatives considered here.
Each as ~ts own challenges, and the objective of improved quality is likely
to be more dependent on how the process is designed and deparbnent
leadership encouragement of a quality objective than in the underlying
approach. Process re'-engi~eering will be an important component of the
implementation of any of these alternatives.
, ,
Other factors
The training of field officers to use the techniques suggested here differs~
but training is a maDdatory part of any incident reporting solution.
Beyond basic report writing skills, the use of dictation itself requires
officer training. If dicta tion is to achieve the expected efficiencies, o,fficers

need to learn this skill. Use of the laptop computer requires even more
training. Houston provides 8 hours of training in the use of the laptop
computer. Additional training would be required f~r any' other
applications that might be added., Over time, it is possible that the
h:aining requirements will diininish as more entry level personnel have
learned to use a computer at home or at school.
There are human factors that bear on this decision as well as cost and
quality factors. In this arena, both dictation and laptop data entry have
advantages over the post-shift data entry model. The dictation approach
appears to give officers the perception that their time is not "wasted" in
report writing. Laptop data entry give~ officers the perception that their
work is important enough to give them the most modern tools. As has
been mentioned, there is the additional potential with laptop computing
, of increased officer ow'nership of the report data. '
The use of laptop computing by officers is also a sign to the citizenry that
the department is attempting to use the most up to date technology to do
its work, and is seeking effi~ient ways to do so. The image of the
deparbnent is likely to ~ enhanced where officers carry laptop
computers to do their work. '
Conclusion
EntrY of incident data in the field using a portable computer is the lowest
cost option when measured on the basis of the Ion er term. This method
, also 0 ers the greatest potential for improved report writing because of
the involvement of the field officer 'in directly creating the incident: report
,.and the editing capabilities that can,be exercised directly during the point
of report creation. '
Even if the above analyse,S did not by themselves lead to the conclusion
that a laptop approach is the preferred solution, the potential for' new,
'applications in the hands of the field officer offers dramatic new
advantages. There is no doubt that field computers can increase the
amount of information at the officer'sdisposal, and wip therefore
improve the o~cer's ability to respond 'to issues in the community.
The potential of using the computer as a replacement for the MDT and as
a local repository for iriformaLion relevant Lo community based policing
has such great potential that even if the cost analysis did not show a'short
term payoff, mobile computing would still be the preferred alternative.
Given that these tools show a payback in a relatively short period o(time
as opposed to alternative solutions, the conclusion that laptop computing
is a feasible and preferred solution is clear. "
