  8. Joint task force on Rapsheet standardization • Nlets CHIEF Project (BJS Funded) • Develop strategies and tools to transform between GJXDM and NIEM • Combine forces with FBI - Joint Task Force in the development of a Next Generation Rap Sheet with additional content and presentation formatting • Develop Service Oriented Architectural frameworks in the pilot states • Provide comprehensive statistics to support crime prevention and recidivism efforts • Document “Lessons Learned “and recommend extensions and/or revisions to the NIEM
