Office of Justice Programs Information Technology
Initiatives
REI developed, and is currently maintaining, a dynamic database-driven
website (http://it.ojp.gov) that enables justice components at all
levels of government to access and obtaining timely information on
information-sharing resources and information technology initiatives.
Since 2001, this site continues to experience tremendous growth in
its usage by stakeholders. A library of more than 280 external links
and documents is maintained at this site. The site integrates a number
of previously separate sites such as the Global Justice Information
sharing Initiative, Justice Standards Clearinghouse, and Global Justice
XML Data Model.
Bulletproof Vest Partnership
(BVP) Program
REI provides a full range of technical, program, and support services
for the development, testing, roll-out, and management of an Internet-based
solution designed to aid state and local law enforcement agencies,
and units of the federal government, in purchasing bullet-resistant
body armor for their officers. REI project staff coordinates closely
with the Office of the Comptroller, Office of Justice Programs,
for all aspects of management, processing, and internal controls
relating to the electronic distribution of payments to jurisdictions.
The primary objective of the BVP Grant Act of 1998 was to establish
a matching grants program to save the lives of law enforcement
officers. User handbooks for jurisdictions, vendors, Bureau of
Justice Assistance (BJA), and other participants were developed
as part of this grants management system. Other key responsibilities
include help desk support, BVP website maintenance, and implementation
of enhancements.
Local Law Enforcement
Block Grants (LLEBG)/Office for Domestic Preparedness (ODP) Programs
REI was engaged to develop the initial user interface for the Local Law Enforcement
Block Grants (LLEBG) program that provides funds to law enforcement agencies.
REI was then tasked to take over all design and development for the project.
The LLEBG system went online for 1999 grants and is an end-to-end online, paperless
grants management. This system is currently in Operations and Maintenance Phase
(O&M) phase of the system development lifecycle.
