PROMIS, A LEAA EXEMPLARY PROJECT DOVETAILS WITH THE FOLLOWING CDS COMPONENTS: THE COMPUTERIZED CRIMINAL HISTORY (CCH) SYSTEM; OFFENDER-BASED TRANSACTION STATISTICS (OBTS); UNIFORM CRIME REPORTS (UCR); AND STATE-LEVEL STATISTICAL ANALYSIS CENTERS (SAC). PROMIS MEETS ALL OF THE OBTS INFORMATIONAL REQUIREMENTS FROM ARREST THROUGH SENTENCING AND CONTAINS THE VAST MAJORITY OF DATA ELEMENTS FOR THE IDENTIFICATION-THROUGH-JUDICIAL SEGMENTS OF CCH. PROMIS CONTAINS BOTH UCR AND SYSTEM FOR ELECTRONIC ANALYSIS AND RETRIEVAL OF CRIMINAL HISTORIES (PROJECT SEARCH) OFFENSE CODES, AS WELL AS MANY DATA ELEMENTS RELEVANT TO SAC ANALYSIS. PROMIS TIES IN WITH POLICE OBJECTIVES IN A NUMBER OF WAYS, E.G., BY REPORTING FINAL DISPOSITIONS FOR AUTOMATED OR MANUAL POSTING TO RAP SHEETS. PROMIS CAN REPORT DISPOSITIONS BY THE UNIQUE FINGERPRINT-BASED IDENTIFICATION NUMBER ASSIGNED BY POLICE TO THE ACCUSED, BY POLICE CHARGE, OR BY THE POLICE-ASSIGNED COMPLAINT NUMBER. PROMIS CAN ALSO GENERATE FUGITIVE LISTINGS, HELP TO IDENTIFY POLICE DEFICIENCIES AFFECTING THE OUTCOME OF CASES, AND PROVIDE DATA RELEVANT TO POLICE MODUS OPERANDI FILES AND ANALYSES OF CRIMINAL ACTIVITY BY NEIGHBORHOOD. PROMIS CONTAINS THE ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF A TYPICAL COURT INFORMATION SYSTEM AND RESPONDS TO A NUMBER OF COURT-RELATED INQUIRIES. TRIAL AND SENTENCING CALENDARS ARE ROUTINELY AVAILABLE FROM PROMIS, AS ARE PREPRINTED SUBPOENA FORMS. PROMIS CONTAINS ALL OF THE CRIMINAL DATA ELEMENTS REQUIRED BY THE STATE JUDICIAL INFORMATION SYSTEM (SJIS). ALTHOUGH THE ACQUISITION OF DATA FOR PROMIS CEASES UPON RECORDING OF THE DEFENDANT'S SENTENCE, THE SYSTEM CONTAINS SIGNIFICANT INFORMATION BEARING ON CORRECTIONS. PROMIS TRACKS THE WORKLOAD OF THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE PROCESS FROM THREE VANTAGE POINTS: THE CRIME OR CRIMINAL INCIDENT; THE ACCUSED OR DEFENDANT; AND THE COURT PROCEEDINGS. TABLES COMPARING CCH, OBTS, SJIS, AND PROMIS DATA ELEMENTS ARE INCLUDED. FOR OTHER ISSUES IN THIS SERIES, SEE NCJ 44750-44765 AND 44767-44770.
