October 2005) Application for Funding Assistance Florida Department of Law Enforcement Justice Assistance Grant - County -wide General Project Information Project Title: RI - BACKLOG REDUCTION PROJECT-MIAMI Subgrant Recipient: City of Miami Implementing Agency: City of Miami Police Department Project Start Date: 10/1/2014 End Date: 9/30/2015 Problem Identification The City of Miami is the largest city in Miami -Dade County. It is populated by more than 409,750 residents according to 2011 U.S. Census estimates. The Miami Police Department (MPD) has made significant strides in the services provided to its community and is one of the largest police departments in the country. Currently, the MPD is in the process of improving its Records Unit. While previous funding has allowed the MPD to address the backlog of reports entered in the Law Records Management System (LRMS); to cross train unit clerks and facilitate the Record Unit in becoming more automated and efficient, monies are still needed to improve the day to day functioning of the Unit. The Records Unit currently has a backlog of approximately 5,000 cases. The MPD operates on a 24 hours, 7 day a week schedule however, due to budget constraints the Records Unit has been operating on an 8 hour, 5 day a week schedule since 2005. This causes the Unit to begin each week with a backlog. Additionally, there has been a large reduction in personnel due to the DROP Program retirements and the inability to replace those personnel due to the city's economic conditions. Each of the three (3) MPD Districts generates 400 to 500 reports daily. The backlog is not only a direct result of reduced schedules but also due to a shortage of laptops and computer brackets, requiring officers to manually submit reports and/or share laptops with other officers. This funding will allow the MPD Records Unit the possibility of decreasing the backlog by 50%. Project Summary (Scope of Work) MPD installed the Law Records Management System (LRMS) that provides an efficient process for recording and accessing criminal justice information. FY 2015 JAG funds will be utilized for records unit data entry personnel to work overtime inputting data in the department's LRMS. Statistics are used to publish crime rates and trends which are then used to determine the allocation of resources. During the upcoming grant year, the records Unit Supervisors and Data Entry Personnel will work their overtime hours with the goal of eliminating the current backlog of 5,000 reports. As specified above, this backlog is a result of the current economic conditions as well as loss of significant personnel. Staff will continue to cross train all personnel in the Records Unit. Trained staff will serve as backup when other key personnel are absent from work. The decrease in backlog will allow for reports to be more readily accessible to citizens, police personnel as well as the State Attorney's Office. Specifically, MPD will utilize JAG funds to allow time to automate records to improve the maintenance and management of criminal justice data in the police department. Grant funds are vital to our department for the purposes of data entry of the LRMS System and mandatory requirements of the department.
