Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2024, $1,718,983)

The Virginia State Police (VSP) will use funds to conduct three projects. Project 1 – VSP plans to develop and implement needed enhancements to the Criminal and Rap Back Information System (CRIS), which will be implemented by July 2025 with basic functionality. The improvements to the Orphan Disposition File (ODF) within CRIS will allow VSP to decommission an older, complex program that lacks opportunities to simplify processing or make improvements. The enhancements to the Multi-modal Biometrics System (MBIS) integration with the CRIS will allow VSP to build an infrastructure where documents are easily searchable and viewed within one platform across multiple systems using Hyland’s Alfresco content services platform. Project 2 – Grant funds are requested to hire one support employee to perform the duties and responsibilities associated with determining lawful possession of firearms and the issuance of nonresident concealed handgun permits. The position will emphasize analyzing criminal history records and subsequent research in compliance with state and federal firearms laws. Project 3 - The Supreme Court of Virginia, Office of the Executive Secretary, requests funding to redesign the annual expungement of juvenile court records in the Juvenile and Domestic Relations courts due to the many issues surrounding the current process that is over twenty-five years old and fails to identify all cases eligible for expungement. This project will eliminate or streamline many manual processes by converting the current batch program to a Java-based application and developing interactive online reports.
