metrics, and supporting technology systems. Phase I Deliverables shall include the drafting and presentation of an
assessment report in conformance with the Order and include a blueprint of prioritized, actionable recommendations for
policies, procedures, metrics and supporting technology that advance and maintain MCSO’s compliance with the Order.

A. Phase I: Discovery & Recommendations
A1. Interviews & Stakeholder Relationship Building
VRI shall interview members of the MCSO Compliance Unit and other MCSO staff and stakeholders at MCSO’s
direction, to understand and forward compliance status, strategies, goals, tasks and capabilities. VRI anticipate a
series of working sessions that at first define and inform and eventually apply a Dynamic Compliance Gap Analysis
to measure MCSO’s compliance with the Order. These activities shall help develop VRI’s understanding of the
particular capabilities and challenges facing MCSO, and work to establish best practices and metrics that are
specifically applicable to MCSO forwarding compliance with the Order.
A2. Document Review
VRI shall submit a document request list early in the project for the dual purpose of developing a baseline
understanding of MCSO’s substantive written material in compliance with the Order and beginning VRI’s analysis
of any gaps in documentation required by the Order. In so doing VRI shall review how MCSO creates and manages
required documentation and identify specific policies, procedures, training materials and other documentation
required by the order that is missing or needs to be modified to meet the requirements of the Order.

SERIAL 14015-RFP
A3. Technical Systems Review
VRI shall assist the MCSO in reviewing existing technical systems that support deployment, supervision, and the

into the compliance framework, and which technical system requirements of the Order, if any, shall require the
design and implementation of new, standalone systems. In so doing VRI shall work with MCSO2 to map out the
technical features, network requirements, storage requirements and operational use of each relevant system and seek
to identify and recommend hardware, software and network solutions that meet the requirements of the Order as
effectively and efficiently as possible.
VRI shall present VRI’s findings in a succinct report with appropriate visualizations that identify opportunities,
gaps, and practical recommendations of actions that MCSO should take to most beneficially and profitably comply
with the Order.
A4. On Site Observations
VRI shall observe patrol activities to earn first-hand knowledge of MCSO’s operations and how relevant policies,
procedures, training and supporting systems are utilized in practice to meet the requirements of MCSO and the
Order. In so doing VRI shall be mindful of how to best integrate the requirements of the Order into MCSO’s
operations in a practical manner that minimizes additional costs and time for MCSO deputies and supervisors
(considering both direct and indirect effects) and maintains the highest levels of effectiveness and personal safety for
MCSO deputies and supervisors.
A5. Dynamic Compliance Gap Analysis & Drafting of Internal Assessment Document
The Dynamic Compliance Gap Analysis shall serve as a barometer for compliance with the Order and be utilized
throughout the project to track, measure and report on MCSO’s compliance. It is conceived to incorporate and work
in parallel with the specific requirements, compliance framework and language approved by the Parties, Monitor
and Court. The Dynamic Compliance Gap Analysis shall be structured around the relevant substantive paragraphs of
the Order3 and include both short narrative statements and color-coded visual representations of compliance status.
The Dynamic Compliance Gap Analysis shall be used in conjunction with findings and analysis from the Interviews,
Document Reviews, Technical System Reviews and On Site Observations to form the substance of the Internal
Assessment document.
VRI shall draft the Internal Assessment for review, comment and approval by MCSO according to the schedule
required by the Parties and Court.
A6. Strategic Master Planning & Budgeting
Likewise, the Dynamic Compliance Gap Analysis and the activities described above shall be utilized to inform a
series of prioritized, budgeted recommendations that VRI shall deliver in parallel with the first Internal Assessment.
1 Systems that VRI anticipates reviewing include CAD/RMS/Civil Process, Radio Systems (P25), Automatic
License Plate Readers (ALPR), Mobile Data Terminals (and supported applications), Audio and Visual Recording
Systems, Scheduling, Deployment, Supervisory and Human Resources MIS Systems, and Crime Analysis &
Intelligence MIS Systems.
2 VRI anticipates working closely with both the MCSO Implementation Unit, assigned MCSO technology & IT
professionals, and command staff during both the discovery, analysis and reporting phases of VRI’s work.
3 In line with the RFP’s requirements, the Dynamic Compliance Gap Analysis and internal assessments shall
include: i) analysis of collected traffic-stop and high-profile or immigration-related operations data; ii) written
policies and procedures; iii) training, as set forth in the Order; iv) compliance with policies and procedures; v)
supervisor review; vi) intake and investigation of civilian complaints; vii) conduct of internal investigations; viii)
discipline of officers; and ix) community relations.

Daniel Rosenblatt has spent his career advocating for progressive practices in law enforcement.
Mr. Rosenblatt served as the Executive Director of the International Association of Chiefs of Police from 1989 –
2011. The IACP is a private, non-profit law enforcement membership organization with some 22,000 members in
more than 100 countries. As IACP's chief executive officer, Mr. Rosenblatt managed, oversaw and directed the full
range of operations and programs of a staff of 130 individuals who provide a wide range of support services of
critical importance to law enforcement leaders around the world. Key among these offerings is the development of
carefully researched policy documents and positions that significantly enhance the ability of a police chief and a
police agency to deliver efficient and effective law enforcement services. Policies developed are employed in
assessing police agencies and making recommendations that lay the groundwork for improved practices. During his
tenure at IACP, Mr. Rosenblatt has directed the development of a series of special focus conferences that developed
strategies and policies in a variety of areas, addressing a wide variety of issues such as violent crime, family
violence, youth crime, intelligence sharing, hate crime, DNA evidence, law enforcement/university partnerships and
private sector/public sector partnerships.
Prior to joining the Association, Mr. Rosenblatt was employed at the Police Foundation, a law enforcement think-
tank, where he served as director of communications. At the Foundation he developed a 22-part public television
series that provided public audiences with a better understanding and appreciation for the work of police officers and
the challenges of crime in a free society.
From 1974 -1984, Mr. Rosenblatt served in various offices at the United States Department of Justice. In 1981, he
was asked to serve as staff to the Attorney General's Task Force on Violent Crime, which developed a series of
policy and program practices to improve efforts to combat violent crime in the United States. In 1984, he was

selected to join a small working group charged with implementing recommendations of a Presidential Task Force
that focused on the needs of Victims of Crime.
Mr. Rosenblatt holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from the George Washington University and has undertaken
graduate work at the American University on the American Presidency. He is a life member of the IACP, a past
president of the National Organization for Victim Assistance (NOVA) and holds membership in the National
Organization for Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE), the National Sheriffs' Association and the Virginia
Association of Chiefs of Police. He also serves on the Board of Directors for the National Law Enforcement Officers
Memorial Fund.
