S.F. Police update AIM EIS rollout, vendor customizations and training plans
Summary
Lieutenant Anna Brown told the commission the interim Early Intervention System rolled out in February and that vendor On Target Performance Systems is converting indicator databases for the AIM EIS; staff will continue training and publish a FAQ to address officer mistrust.
Lieutenant Anna Brown presented the commission with a status update on the San Francisco Police Department’s Early Intervention System (EIS). She said the interim EIS was rolled out in February to guide development of AIM EIS while the contract and customization work proceeded. "The interim system was actually developed... and we rolled out that interim system in February," Brown said.
Brown said the department amended its contract with vendor On Target Performance Systems (approved 08/14/2008) to allow necessary customizations to comply with General Order 3.19. The vendor has mapped and started modifications on five of ten indicator databases and posted preliminary data conversions for testing; Brown said OCC will not convert its mature database directly but will provide a secondary feed to AIM.
The interim EIS produced reports covering the 12‑month period 07/01/2007–06/30/2008; the unit plans monthly reports and a quarterly summary for September. Brown acknowledged misconceptions among officers — many fear the system will be used punitively — and said the unit conducted familiarization sessions for 32 sergeants and lieutenants and will produce an FAQ and additional training courses. She identified Jim Villaluna and Officer Scott Edwards as key staff for data work and training.
Commissioners asked for copies of slides and the draft FAQ; Brown agreed to provide materials and to continue supervisory familiarization sessions. The department said testing with indicator units is scheduled and that OCC has committed to provide a secondary database feed by mid‑October.
