Sentinel Audit V: Status of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Case Management System. Audit Report 10-03

摘要

In March 2006, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced that it had awarded a contract to Lockheed Martin Services, Incorporated, (Lockheed Martin) to develop Sentinel, its new information and case management system. The cost of Lockheed Martins contract, broken down into four phases, was $305 million, and the FBI estimated that it would cost an additional $120 million to staff and administer the FBIs Sentinel Program Management Office (PMO), which placed the total estimated cost of Sentinel at $425 million. The initial schedule for the Lockheed Martin contract called for the project to be completed in December 2009. The Sentinel program will integrate commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components and is intended to provide the FBI with an electronic information and case management system that includes records management, workflow management, evidence management, search and reporting capabilities, and information sharing with other law enforcement agencies and the intelligence community.
