SERIAL 240189-CI EXHIBIT B-1 CONTRACTOR DELIVERY OF SERVICES 2.1 Traffic Stop Data Analysis: The figure below depicts the data collection, data management and preparation, data analysis, and report production processes we envision under this project. Data Collection, Data Management and Preparation Upon receiving raw data files from MCSO in electronic format, the CNA analysis team shall thoroughly review the data files, auditing particular data fields as needed, and shall follow up with MCSO regarding any gaps, anomalies, or unusual patterns identified in the data sets. Once the data files are cleaned, the analysis team shall code and/or recode data fields to make the data files ready for analysis. Following the cleaning and coding procedures, the files shall be merged as needed. CNA shall consult with MCSO during this phase to ensure that MCSO agrees on the accuracy of the data file. Data Analysis CNA’s analysis of MCSO traffic stop data will continue our existing support and analysis of MCSO traffic stop data. CNA’s analysis of MCSO traffic stop data shall be independent, based on our data preparation and analytical approaches, in the context of our past reports and analyses. We will continue to adjust our methodology in consultation with MCSO personnel and other stakeholders as appropriate. Data Analysis—Analytical Techniques The CNA analysis team shall analyze the car stop data using techniques established during our previous work with MCSO. Simple techniques are descriptive analyses that build a basic descriptive foundation for the more complex analyses to follow. They are relatively easy to calculate and present to both professional and lay audiences. Complex techniques are multivariate approaches that account for more than a few variables in the same statistical model. Although they are more difficult to use and present, these approaches are advantageous because they identify the independent effect of one factor of interest while holding constant, or taking into consideration, the effect of a range of other factors, including officer, stop, and situational variables. Along this spectrum, CNA’s analyses of MCSO traffic stop data shall include the following: • Basic descriptive statistics showing the numbers and distributions of stops by characteristics such as stop type, driver’s race, officer’s race, time of day, time of year, and stop location. • Propensity score matching analyses intended to uncover causal relationships through the use of post hoc establishment of plausible comparison groups to allow estimates of effects on the group of interest. For example, all incidents involving Hispanic community members would be matched with the most-similar incident that involved white community members, and the differences in traffic stop outcomes would be analyzed. • Data Analysis—Additional Issues of Interest Although this effort focuses on using data to analyze issues of racial profiling and bias, the same data can be used to help MCSO analyze operational efficiency and discern which practices are more or less effective in achieving operational goals. In trying to understand why outliers exist, a department can learn about many aspects of its operations. The following are examples: • Analyzing stops by outcome captures the productivity of each stop in terms of citations issues, or searches conducted, or some other desired outcome. • Analyzing stops and outcomes by location can identify which areas require more or less attention. • Analyzing stops by officer can determine the effects of experience and certain kinds of training on officer efficiency. Receive raw data from MCSO Clean and code data files Merge data files MCSO review of merged files Analyze data Prepare reports DOJ & MCSO review of reports SERIAL 240189-CI The key to this type of effort is choosing the right outcomes to investigate and avoiding the creation of incentives to “work the numbers,” rather than the mission. CNA shall work closely with MCSO and the Monitoring Team in determining whether additional factors can be added to the basic and multivariate analyses of stop data. Reporting Finally, CNA shall compile the results of the data analysis into draft reports for internal review and editing. Following the internal review, CNA shall provide the draft reports for review by MCSO. After the external review and editing of each analysis report, and addressing any edits or corrections requested, CNA shall prepare each report in a finalized format for delivery and dissemination. 2.2 Internal Benchmarking: The MCSO solicitation requires the contractor to assist and collaborate with MCSO to identify, review, and update the internal benchmarking methodologies being used to analyze racial and ethnic differences in stop outcomes. The current approach to internal benchmarking compares the racial/ethnic mix of stop outcomes for individual deputies with the racial/ethnic mix of stop outcomes for all deputies making stops in the same district. CNA proposes to continue using our established internal benchmarking approach using propensity score matching. Details are available in the currently approved analytical plan. 2.3 Report Building: CNA has experience translating research and statistical analyses into usable and actionable information for law enforcement agencies, and we understand the risks of misunderstanding, misinterpretation, or manipulation of data. Thus, our reports present data accurately and thoroughly, using language that is unambiguous and understandable to lay audiences. We shall not only report the results of our analyses but also explain our methods and underlying rationales, including highlighting any changes from previous studies or changes that occur over the course of our work with MCSO.1 We believe strongly that transparency is crucial to organizational relationships and to law enforcement- community relations and shall demonstrate transparency by providing reports on methodologies, syntax construction, data cleaning, and quality assurance measures. We shall also provide traffic stop data files used in all analyses methodologies to MCSO via secure file sharing. 2.4 Information Sharing and Communication of Changes: Communication and information sharing are vital to building an effective working relationship between CNA and MCSO. CNA shall establish several practices for its work on traffic stop analysis to ensure that MCSO and the Monitoring Team have a complete understanding of all processes and activities we undertake, from start to finish, once a raw data file(s) is received from MCSO. These practices shall include the following: • Documenting approaches to data management, cleaning, and preparation in the weekly reports we provide, including explanations about programming and analysis syntax and analytical methods employed. • Providing periodic (upon request) trainings and briefings for MCSO staff on the lessons learned by the analysis team and any changes made to syntax, programming, and other data management procedures; this information shall be compiled into quarterly bulletins, offeringongoing, thorough documentation of the team’s work. • Providing periodic (upon request) updates for MCSO and the Monitoring Team regarding changes in analytic strategy, statistical software and related programs, and any staffing changes affecting the work. • Delivering, at the conclusion of our work, CNA’s compilation of all the information in the periodic 1 For examples of past CNA work, see: (1) Rodriguez, Denise, Laura Kunard, Will Johnson, James LaRochelle, Zoë Thorkildsen.

With these practices and reporting procedures, MCSO will have ongoing, up-to-date information about all aspects of this analysis project, leaving little margin for the introduction of new information when the official reports are received. Additionally, MCSO staff shall build their knowledge of how the traffic stop analysis is conducted, thus increasing their ability to conduct the analyses independently once DOJ involvement ends. 2.5 Developing Analytical Capacity: MCSO has increased their analytical capacity through software acquisition and personnel hires during the original contract period. CNA will continue to work closely with MCSO to assist with capacity building as needed. 2.6 Technical Assistance Process: The development and delivery of technical assistance to a police organization like MCSO, especially one that is under a federal court order regarding biased traffic stop practices, is a significant and challenging undertaking. It requires careful deliberation on identifying technical assistance needs, and how technical assistance to MCSO staff shall be developed, delivered, and assessed. Essentially, a collaborative and trusting relationship must exist between the technical assistance provider and the recipient agency to deliver technical assistance and foster meaningful organizational change. CNA has been providing technical assistance to more than 300 police agencies for the past 10 years, covering a variety of areas, such as officer involved shootings, use of force, community policing, policing innovation, police-research partnerships, violence reduction, and body-worn camera implementation. We have learned over the past decade of involvement with police agencies of all types and sizes that delivery of technical assistance depends on a trusting relationship built through quality interactions and communication, and maintained over time. For all its technical assistance initiatives, CNA establishes trusting relationships through regular, peer-friendly (e.g., cop-to-cop), strategically focused (e.g., based on a technical assistance plan), and non-intrusive, non-directive technical assistance delivery mechanisms. These mechanisms have never failed. Even the most sophisticated and well-funded police agencies that have research relationships with top-level researchers (e.g., Los Angeles, Chicago, Las Vegas, Philadelphia) have communicated technical assistance needs to CNA, and we have consistently delivered with high-quality resources and advice. Although the MCSO solicitation articulates several well-defined technical assistance needs that CNA shall address, such as training on analysis, assistance with understanding programming and syntax, and attendance (and active participation) at MCSO meetings, it also provides for CNA response to ad hoc requests for technical assistance related to this traffic stop analysis initiative. As noted above (under “Information Sharing and Communication of Changes”), CNA shall provide regular updates and information regarding any changes in or modifications to data preparation, computer programming and syntax, software, analytic approaches and methodology, and staffing and project management. We also understand that in conducting this work and developing a working relationship with MCSO, other technical assistance needs shall arise that shall be addressed by CNA’s vast, highly qualified consultant pool. We stand ready to respond to ad hoc technical assistance requests within 24 hours, as required by the solicitation. Requests may include basic or advanced training in crime analysis for MCSO staff and analysts, training in contemporary statistical analysis, assistance with internal and external communications planning around dissemination of the analysis results, and assistance with refinements to the MCSO early intervention system. CNA shall establish a formal technical assistance request and review procedure with MCSO to review each request for relevance, need, feasibility, and affordability. Where technical assistance requests are made that cannot be fulfilled through the resources of this project, CNA shall work with MCSO to identify and request other technical assistance resources through the Bureau of Justice Assistance, the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services, and other DOJ bureaus. It is through CNA’s focused and high-quality technical assistance, similar to the communications and information sharing issues discussed above, that MCSO shall build the skills, capacity, and confidence to tackle complicated problems like bias in traffic stops. SERIAL 240189-CI 2.8 Transfer of Activities: CNA understands and shall abide by all requirements outlined in this section. We shall provide, by no later than the eighth month of the final performance period, plans for transfer of the project to either MCSO or a new contractor (as applicable). If necessary, CNA shall initiate transition activities sixty (60) calendar days prior to the expiration of the task order. These activities include: (2.8.1.1) Continued full service to the customers; (2.8.1.2) at the Contracting Officer’s discretion, participating in five (5) or more meetings with the new Contractor to effect a smooth transition and to receive detailed information on the prior operations; (2.8.1.3) providing complete documentation and all hardware, software, materials and data produced or acquired with task order funds over to MCSO or the new Contractor in good condition; and, during a three (3)-week transition period, assure that the Contractor’s senior personnel train the new personnel (Contractor or government) in all system operation and maintenance functions; and, (2.8.1.4) performing appropriate close-out of all outstanding technical and related work. In addition, CNA shall follow the requirements of Contract Closeout and schedule a meeting with MCSO’s Procurement Contract Office to discuss the execution of information technology transition activities related to data, software, web content, and electronic records. CNA shall use the Chain of Custody Form when records are transferred to the Custodian of Record at end of contract and for providing authorization to destroy any records (requests need to be made from the vendor to the Custodian of Record and Custodian of Record provides approval). Finally, because CNA shall not use any underlying data for study analysis that are leased or proprietary, analytic files (where source files are reduced in volume and tailored to specific analyses), or data analytic programs, all results produced for this project shall be the property of Maricopa County. CNA understands that all information and materials, including data, developed under this task order, as negotiated, are the property of the government and shall be delivered as part of the turnover at the end of the task order. No information developed under this task order shall be used in external analyses or presentations by CNA without the written permission of Maricopa County.
