2015 Criminal History Record Assessment and Research Program (CHRARP): The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) is seeking proposals to support the Criminal History Record Assessment and Research Program (CHRARP). This statistical program furthers BJSs mission to produce accurate and timely information on the criminal histories of offenders. The recipient of funds will transform automated criminal history records into databases that support statistical research and studies of the criminal behaviors for various cohorts of individuals. The recipient of funds will 1) prepare and maintain a software system that converts the contents of automated criminal history records into research databases; 2) generate a set of at least three research databases, including technical assistance in the design of sampling frames and sampling weights; 3) design and implement a quality assurance system to validate the conversion of raw criminal history information into these research databases; 4) provide BJS with a set of analyses of each research database based on BJSs specifications; 5) work with BJS to determine how variations in the quality, completeness, and variability of the computerized criminal history information maintained by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and state repositories affect the content of the research databases; and 6) prepare technical reports detailing these findings and proposing methods to compensate for these attributes when analyzing these administrative records. BJS anticipates making one award of up to $1,000,000 for the 18-month program described herein.The program includes an option to continue the work for an additional 42 months. Funding in subsequent years will be based on the selected applicants performance during the initial 18 months, the availability of funds, and the scope of work developed by BJS following the first 18 months. This award may be supplemented in the future at BJS discretion, depending on the selected applicants performance and the availability of appropriations.
