JANUARY 1973 REPORT ON A MANAGEMENT STUDY DESIGNED TO IDENTIFY THE REQUIREMENTS FOR DEVELOPMENT OF AN INTEGRATED REGIONAL INFORMATION SYSTEM.
Abstract
INCLUDED AS A PART OF THIS STUDY WAS AN ANALYSIS OF THE RELATIONSHIP OF SUCH A SYSTEM TO THE STATEWIDE COMPREHENSIVE DATA SYSTEM PROMOTED BY LEAA. A REVIEW AND ANALYSIS OF PLANNED AND OPERATIONAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS USED BY THE LOCAL AND COUNTY LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AND THE STATE PLANNING AGENCY IS FOLLOWED BY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A COMPREHENSIVE CRIMINAL JUSTICE INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR THE STATE OF COLORADO. SUGGESTED FOR CONSIDERATION AS ESSENTIAL TO THE OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE OF SUCH A CENTRALIZED SYSTEM ARE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A MASTER PLAN, AN ASSESSMENT OF INFORMATION NEEDS, AND ORGANIZATION CONTROLS IN THE FORM OF A STEERING COMMITTEE WHICH WOULD DETERMINE POLICY, ESTABLISH OR SANCTION PRIORITIES, AND EVALUATE PROGRESS.
