The organizational strategy
The Criminal Intelligence Bureau has a strategic plan founded on four pillars. The criminal intelligence personnel form the first pillar. From this pillar, the Criminal Intelligence Bureau intends to heighten the national criminal intelligence through devoting resources to cultivate intelligence expertise and equipment to pull talent in the intelligence industry through the Criminal Intelligence Bureau hiring policies (Fijnaut, 2011).
Secondly, the Criminal Intelligence Bureau aims at providing support to intelligence personnel via directions given by the leadership of the organization. The organization achieves this through availing all necessary technological tools to the intelligence personnel based on principles. The bureau facilitates the analysis of intelligence information by training personnel in the best practice and methodologies of analyzing intelligence. In addition, the second pillar entails the dissemination of processed intelligence data to the concerned agencies and evaluation of the benefit of criminal intelligence (Todd & Jonathan, 2008). This is achieved through assessing feedback and determining the satisfaction level of member agencies by a performance measurement tool known as the balanced scorecard.
The third strategy is the criminal intelligence technologies. This refers to the maintenance of the Criminal Intelligence Bureau data mining and system technology. It also involves updated to new and innovative technologies. The final strategy is the criminal intelligence communication planning consisting of coordination of information flow within member agencies and non-member partners. This is achieved through instilling strategic analyzing based on a national level in the criminal intelligence workforce (Fijnaut, 2011).
The organizational policy
The Criminal Intelligence Bureau is guided by three major policies:
I. Integrity -- to work and live in accordance with the highest level of ethical standards, being truthful...
Respect -- to accord fair treatment to people while protecting their rights; Unbiased, objective and high regard for the beliefs, property, values and rights of other people.
III. Citizen services -- to make sure all citizens receives, timely, dedicated and conscious services.
Recommendations
For a safer and stronger nation, Criminal Intelligence Bureau demands the most effective policy and effective law enforcement across member agencies. To initiate an effective strategy towards the suppression and prevention of criminal activities, and unprecedented level of collaboration among member agencies is fundamental. The Criminal Intelligence Bureau must incorporate all law enforcement agencies. With this organization, the best strategy would be to engage the private sector such as those producing identification documents and systems, as well as various commercial entities using these documents and systems (Levinson, 2012).
Looking at the public sector, besides the law enforcement, various agencies and departments maintaining intelligence infrastructures must use and verify intelligence. The Criminal Intelligence Bureau must incorporate stakeholders at the municipal, provincial, federal and international levels. To respond effectively to the changing technology and criminal behavior, the organization must engage a flexible and open-ended strategy. Such a strategy will enable the organization to identify and highlight areas of crime hence detect, prevent and combat any criminal behavior (Todd & Jonathan, 2008). The Criminal Intelligence Bureau crime strategy must be workable in all government agencies and private sector across the country to initiate satisfactory economic, social, and collective accountability.
