Attachment: Tennessee Criminal Justice Exchange (TCJX) Executive Summary Tennessee is taking a bold step forward in public safety by bringing together state and local agencies to form a unified criminal justice data sharing platform. While this project began with jail data, it has expanded to include data such as license plate readers, body-worn camera footage, outstanding warrants, BOLO flags, jail holds, and more, which would create a comprehensive 360-degree view of the criminal justice landscape. Today, much of this information is in disconnected silos, requiring manual processes to report and analyze. This initiative aims to deliver secure, real-time intelligence to decision- makers across agencies, enhancing operational efficiency and enabling data-informed responses. Artificial Intelligence may play a role by analyzing trends, identifying anomalies, and predicting risks, which enhances operational efficiency and allows for faster, evidence- based responses. Each participating agency retains control over its own data, with the benefit of technical support and shared infrastructure at the state level. Built on a foundation of CJIS, HIPAA, and state law compliance, this platform will prioritize data security and privacy from day one. In the long run, this initiative improves both systems and outcomes. By modernizing how we share and act on criminal justice data, Tennessee is building a platform that supports smarter policing, stronger collaboration, and safer communities across this great state. Talking Points Unified
Vision
- Bringing together state and local agencies to create unified pproach to criminal justice data sharing by connecting information that currently lives in silos. Beyond
Jails
-This initiative includes key jail data but can expand to include license plate reader hits, body-worn camera footage intelligence, outstanding warrants (not entered in NCIC), BOLO flags, jail holds, and much more.
Real-Time
Intelligence
-Agencies will no longer need to manually update data to Formstack form or provide random statistics by telephone. Legislators, Sheriffs, Chiefs of Police, State Agencies, and others will all share access to trove of data in secure environment. Operational
Efficiency
- Streamlining dat ccess will reduce duplicative work, improve coordination, and allow faster smarter responses across agencies. Improved
Public
Safety
-When officers, jail administrators, courts, and investigators can share information quickly, it leads to better outcomes for community safety. Local
Control
with
Statewide
Support
-Each participating agency retains control over its data while benefitting from technical assistance, integration support, and shared infrastructure provided by the state. Unlike private corporations, this dat stays in the State and is never sold for profit. Compliance
Driven
Design
-Security, privacy, and legal compliance, such as CJIS and HIPAA, are core design principles from day one instead of afterthoughts. AI
Enhanced
Insights
-Artificial Intelligence can help bring patterns to the surface, flag anomalies, and predict risks, allowing agencies to move from reactive to proactive decision-making using data they already have. Built
for
the
Future
-This is more than one-time project. It is an investment in scalable, flexible platform that grows with evolving law enforcement and community needs.
