THIS PROJECT WAS CONDUCTED IN RESPONSE TO THE INCREASING REPLICATION OF THE SAME OR SIMILAR APPLICATION PROGRAMS IN POLICE, COURTS, AND CORRECTIONAL AGENCIES. BASED ON AN ANALYSIS OF NEEDS AND READINESS OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE AGENCIES IN LEAA'S REGION FIVE, THE FOLLOWING SIX AGENCIES WERE SELECTED AS RECIPIENT SITES: LAKE COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT SERVICES (WAUKEGAN, ILLINOIS); MARION COUNTY MUNICIPAL COURT (INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA); MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, (LANSING, MICHIGAN); MINNEAPOLIS POLICE DEPARTMENT (MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA); NORTHWEST OHIO REGIONAL INFORMATION SYSTEM (TOLEDO, OHIO); AND WISCONSIN DIVISION OF CORRECTIONS (MADISON, WISCONSIN). THE PROJECT COMPRISED FOUR PHASES - A SYSTEMS REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS, A DONOR SITE SELECTION PHASE, A TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER PHASE, AND A DOCUMENTATION PHASE. TWO SITES, THE STATE OF WISCONSIN AND THE MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, TERMINATED THEIR PARTICIPATION PRIOR TO COMPLETION OF THE PROJECT. THIS REPORT ASSESSES THE INSIGHTS GAINED IN THE COURSE OF THIS TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER EXPERIMENT TO DEVELOP GUIDELINES TO ASSIST OTHER AGENCIES IN THE TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER PROJECT. THIRTEEN SPECIFIC PROJECT CONCLUSIONS ARE PRESENTED INCLUDING THE ESTIMATION THAT TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER IS ECONOMICALLY AND PRACTICALLY FEASIBLE, THAT LEAA SHOULD DEVELOP A TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM TO ASSIST AGENCIES IN THE TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER PROCESS, AND THAT THERE IS A CRITICAL NEED FOR A NATIONAL, UP-TO-DATE INDEX OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE INFORMATION SYSTEM APPLICATIONS. A SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER EFFORTS AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF THIS ACTIVITY IS PRESENTED. THE 45 RECOMMENDATIONS COVER PRE-TRANSFER CONDITIONS, TRANSFER SYSTEM SELECTION, TRANSFER, DOCUMENTATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR LEAA ACTION. A DESCRIPTION OF THE EXPERIENCES OF THE SITES IN THE PROJECT IS ALSO OFFERED TO SUPPORT PROJECT CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS. CONSIDERED ARE RECIPIENT SIZE, READINESS, REQUIREMENTS ANALYSIS, TRANSFER SYSTEM SELECTION AND IMPLEMENTATION, DOCUMENTATION, PRIVACY AND SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS, AND COST/TIME COMPARISONS. THE APPENDIX CONTAINS COPIES OF THE DONOR SITE TELEPHONE QUESTIONNAIRE, THE PROJECT ABSTRACT OUTLINE, THE SYSTEMS DOCUMENTATION GUIDELINE, THE MINNEAPOLIS TELEPHONE SURVEY RESULTS, AND PROJECT SITE ABSTRACTS.
