Strategic Planning
Concepts and Considerationsfor Criminal Justice Integrators
Implementing Criminal Justice Technologies in the 21st Century Seminar
Consider these definitions
Stratagem – a cunning method of achieving something, a piece of trickery
Strategic – giving an advantage, a strategic position
Strategy – 1) the planning and directing of the whole operation of a campaign or war. 2) a plan or policy of this kind, or to achieve something, our economic strategy
Question
How is strategic planning different from project planning?
Project Planning Develops a sequence of steps
for project planning Creates the budget Develops implementation plan Keeps all stakeholders on
task Develops training timelines
including the costs of training
Strategic Planning High-level attempt to manage
complexity and change Long Term – involves phase
planning Designed to gain a strategic
advantage Used to create strategies to
help an organization exist in an uncertain and changing environment
Some differences are…
Question
If you choose not to develop and use strategic planning, what are the alternatives?
Alternatives to Strategic Planning include…
Continue with business as usual Maintain reactive response to events Use “intuitive” approach to management Manage from the “gut” Encourage manageable simplicity (eliminate all
computers!)
Benefits of Strategic Planning
Opens communication channels Serves as integration training for all who
participate Provides a sense of ownership to participants Encourages agency buy-in Even if the plan gets extensively modified over
time, the planning process itself is valuable

Integration Strategic Plan
Integration strategic planning provides a mechanism for coordinating the interrelated parts of an enterprise, thereby
avoiding fragmented, agency-centric business processes that compromise the efficient functioning of the enterprise as a
whole.
Sample Integration Plan Format
Mission, Vision, Values
Strategic Issues
Goals
Objectives
Performance Measures and Indicators
Vision
A clear, compelling picture of the desired future state
Vision for integration should be driven by stakeholders
Mission, Vision, Values
Goals
Objectives
Performance Measures/Indicators
Strategic Issues
Mission
A brief, clear statement of organizational intent and possibly the methods that it will use to fulfill its purpose
Brings clarity of purpose to participants and stakeholders and lets them know how what they do contributes to the greater good

Strategic Issues
Identification and resolution of strategic issues are at the heart of the plan
Strategic issues are fundamental policy questions or critical challenges that affect mission, values, services, mandates, users

Outcomes and Performance Measures
Outcomes are the benefits or results gained by reaching goals, achieving objectives and resolving strategic issues
Performance Measures are specific, measurable, time-bound expressions of future accomplishment that relate to goals, objectives and strategic issues

Using the “Scenario” Approach to Justice Systems Strategic Planning
Bring stakeholders together to develop a criminal justice scenario
Reach consensus on the desired state of integration Define the current state of integration (baseline) Quantify gap between current state and desired state Use gap to initially define intermediate outcomes and
develop outputs

Scenario for Information Sharing
Defines the information sharing need from a participant/stakeholder perspective
Describes an ideal information sharing environment
Includes response time and information concurrency requirements
Appendix 2Scenario for Information Sharing in IllinoisThis scenario identifies the future functions, range of information exchanges, andinteractions needed among primary entities throughout the justice enterprise forinformation sharing in Illinois. The current technology for justice information systemswas validated against this scenario to identify the gaps which exist today (Appendix 3).All members of the IIJIS Planning Committee, practitioners from a variety of justicedisciplines, collaborated on the creation of this scenario.
1. Subject Not Present: A police officer preparing to conduct a traffic stop or whengiven an assignment prior to contact with any person, will submit a query to statewarrant system (LEADS) and Secretary of State (SOS) to return information onpersons and vehicles. The police officer will receive SOS and warrant data, digitalphoto(s) and officer protection information (i.e., field notification program, etc.) withinless than 10 seconds within 24 hour currency. Additionally the officer should be notifiedthat information exists from a variety of other sources such as: Criminal HistoryRecord Information (CHRI), Firearms Owners Identification (FOID), AutomatedVictim Notification (AVN), Illinois Department of Corrections (IDOC), Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), Department of Children & FamilyServices (DCFS), bond status/conditions, probation/parole status and conditions,etc. within 1 minute within 24 hour currency. The information should be concise anduniform.
2. First Subject Contact: Upon contact with a driver, or in cases other than trafficwhere a police officer’s contact begins with a person, the primary objective is to identifythe individual, check the state warrant system (LEADS) and provide officer protectioninformation. The officer submits an inquiry containing biometric and demographic(alpha-numeric) identifiers in order to verify the subject’s identity, and query the statewarrant system (LEADS) and SOS. The police officer will receive SOS and warrantdata, digital photo(s) and officer protection information (i.e., field notification program,etc.) within less than 10 seconds and 24 hour currency. Additionally the officer shouldreceive a response that information exists from a variety of other sources such as:CHRI, FOID, AVN, IDOC, DCFS, INS, bond status/conditions, probation/parolestatus and conditions etc. within 1 minute and 24 hour currency. The informationshould be concise and uniform.3. A. Non-Custodial Situation: In cases where direct filing is permitted in compliancewith local rules on charge screening, the following applies. In a non-custodial situationwhere an officer effects an arrest, issues a summons, or notice to appear, the officerbiometrically verifies the subject’s identity, the n digitally signs and electronicallypushes the arrest/complaint (including a synopsis of facts) and/or crash report to thepolice information system, prosecutor information system, circuit clerkinformation system, Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), probation,parole and INS information systems and any agency subscribing to theinformation.
Potential Downsides to “Scenario” Approach to Developing the Plan
Scenario develops “blue sky” view of integration that may never be realized
Expectations may be raised to unrealistic levels Participants may have difficulty assigning priorities Achievement of all scenario objectives may take years Link between process improvements as described by
scenario developers and end outcomes can be tenuous
The Gap Analysis – A Reality Check
Active process of examining the distance between the current state and the desired state
Answers whether skills and resources at hand are sufficient to close the gap
Determines if gap can be closed within the prescribed time period
No integration strategic plan can be complete without a thorough gap analysis
Scenario Validation Activities
Scenario validation focus groups Analysis of state-level justice data systems Analysis of state data communications
infrastructure Justice information exchange points model
(JIEM)
Sample Focus Group Findings
Subject history and status shouldn’t require separate inquiries
Inquiry from field should return only officer safety info
Criminal history info is not current Police need access to incident
report databases Digital photos needed Parole and probation conditions
needed for street stops
Live-scan is cost-prohibitive for small jurisdictions
Checking immigrant status requires phone query
Many warrants and most civil OP’s not entered into LEADS
Many prosecutors and probation departments lack access to criminal history files
Judiciary reluctant to use digital signatures and e-filing
Video bond court expansion needed
Infrastructure and Data Sharing Survey of Justice Agencies
Sent to a sampling of 450 police departments, sheriffs, state’s attorneys, court clerks, probation departments
Selected rural, collar and urban agencies (stratified regional sample)
Results indicate that while systems exist, electronic sharing is uncommon
Current information systems infrastructure in rural areas is behind that of urban counties
