This grant, part of the National Crime Statistics Exchange (NCS-X) Initiative, aims to expand the number of law enforcement agencies reporting crime data to the FBI’s National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS). Specifically, it seeks to transition 400 select agencies, including the largest, to NIBRS for generating national crime statistics. The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS), in partnership with the FBI, offers this funding to State Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Programs. The purpose is to enhance state capacity to receive, process, and forward local incident-based crime data to the FBI, strengthening the state pipeline crucial for NIBRS reporting. This support will ensure state UCR Programs are capable of facilitating comprehensive and accurate national crime data collection.

Eligibility
| Eligible Applicants: | Others (see text field entitled “Additional Information on Eligibility” for clarification) |
| Additional Information on Eligibility: | (1)Agencies that oversee the state Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Programs, responsible for reporting crime data to the FBI’s UCR Program, in Alaska, Arizona, or New Mexico. By mutual agreement with the state UCR Program, another agency in these states may apply for and administer funds under this solicitation. Such mutual agreement must be demonstrated in writing via a memorandum of understanding or similar agreement between the two state agencies and must be included in the application. (2)The state agency in Mississippi (a state that currently does not have a state UCR Program)authorized by statute or executive order to collect and report crime data from local LE agencies to the FBI’s UCR. BJS-2017-11593 2 The four eligible states identified in this solicitation either do not have an incident-based crime reporting component that is certified by the FBI to submit data to NIBRS, have a program that is NIBRS-certified but the LE agencies in the state that report incident-based data cover less than 80% of the state population, or do not have a state UCR Program at this time. |

| Description: | The National Crime Statistics Exchange (NCS-X) Initiative is part of a national movement to expand the number of law enforcement (LE) agencies reporting crime data to the FBIÃÂs National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS). NCS-X seeks to transition a select sample of 400 LE agencies from across the country, including all of the largest agencies, to NIBRS, in order to use NIBRS data to generate national crime statistics. Under this funding announcement, BJS, in partnership with the FBI, seeks proposals from state Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Programs to expand the stateÃÂs capacity to report data to NIBRS. The typical mechanism by which a local agency contributes data to NIBRS is through its state pipeline, where agencies report their crime data to the NIBRS-certified UCR Program in their respective state, and the state Program sends data from all of the stateÃÂs contributing agencies to the FBI. Transitioning local agencies to NIBRS reporting requires the state pipeline to be enhanced, to ensure state UCR Programs are capable of receiving and processing local incident-based crime data. Funding under this solicitation will support that effort. |
