AGENCY STATUS REPORT

For Awarded Agencies

The Commission expects CALEA Awarded agencies to maintain compliance with applicable standards, be prepared to provide proofs of compliance, and to operate by the letter and spirit of the established standards so long as they are accredited.

To this end, awarded agencies are required to submit this annual report summarizing the accreditation maintenance experience for the preceding year. In the report, the agency declares its continued compliance with applicable standards, identifies strengths and weakness, and discusses agency risks and future opportunities. The intent of the annual report is to communicate to the Commission on the agency’s continued compliance and establish the information necessary for future reaccreditation assessments.

In addition to submitting this Annual Report, the agency is responsible for notifying its Program Manager of any major incident, event or circumstance that may affect its standard(s) compliance and/or the CALEA Accreditation Program. This notice should be provided to your Program Manager as soon as possible following the event.

This report is required to be submitted to CALEA on the first and second year anniversary of the CALEA award, and prior to the on-site assessment during the third year of award. Questions regarding this report should be directed to the assigned CALEA Program Manager.
