<strong>Police</strong> <strong>Reform</strong> <strong>Programme</strong> (Phase-II)<br />
Outcome 6: Information, Communication and Technology<br />
Supporting the development of an ICT Master Plan for the Bangladesh <strong>Police</strong><br />
Logistics support was provided with the establishment of the new <strong>Police</strong> Telecom and<br />
Information Management offices, located in Rajarbagh, for the proposed staff. This included<br />
assistance with office equipment and office refurbishments.<br />
A presentation was developed and jointly presented (with the Senior System Analyst from PHQ)<br />
at a workshop on Cloud Computing and its possible use for the development and implementation<br />
of applications and systems for government agencies in Bangladesh.<br />
Records, Vehicle and User Management modules from the integrated MIS system developed by<br />
the Government of Bangladesh for the Planning Commission were installed in the MIS section at<br />
<strong>Police</strong> HQ.<br />
Improving crime response and prevention<br />
The implementation of the pilot deployment of the Crime Pattern Analysis System (CPAS) for the<br />
Chittagong Metropolitan <strong>Police</strong> is progressing. The system was installed on the infrastructure<br />
procured earlier and workstations to be used by the CPAS users were delivered to each of the<br />
CMP police stations. Twenty six CPAS (two from each of police stations) users were trained on<br />
a 5-day CPAS training conducted in July.<br />
The development and implementation of the Criminal Identification and Verification System<br />
(CIVS) has commenced. TigerIT was awarded the contract to implement the system that will be<br />
deployed across 58 operational locations in DMP.<br />
Sixty portable Regula 1019 travel document examination devices were handed over to the<br />
Immigration Section of SB for the distribution to 30 border posts around Bangladesh. Forty<br />
Machine Readable Passport scanners, provided by PRP to the Immigration Section, were<br />
integrated with the ForTrack system and installed in the Hazrat Shahjalal Airport and at the Hajj<br />
Camp. The devices cut down the time to process travel documents by 67-75%.<br />
Two workshops were conducted at <strong>Police</strong> HQ to discuss the revision of the current Basic ICT<br />
Skills Awareness training. The workshops, chaired by the AIG ICT, looked the content proposed<br />
for the new Basic ICT Skills training package, considered office software that will be covered and<br />
the duration of the course.<br />
