Part II proposes scientific and rational criteria useful to properly conceive and operate a forensic intelligence system, and to compare and assess alternatives.
Based on these criteria, the paper then explores the decision points that are crucial in defining the process architecture as well as in assisting in making objective decisions in real caseworks.
Building blocks related to the comparison process and the evaluation systems are first presented.
The development of these particular blocks is mainly driven by forensic science and those blocks work relatively independently from general intelligence and investigative data.
This separation is however neither logical nor practical when other building blocks are considered as they concern the many people and organisations that are involved in the whole forensic intelligence process.
The reflections regarding these other components or building blocks must thus be seen as shared by all participants collaborating in the overall process.
