The National Crime Information Center (NCIC) 2000 is the system that replaced the NCIC system. NCIC 2000 has the same mission and the same basic functionality as NCIC, but also features new capabilities. Just as NCIC, NCIC 2000 is a nationwide, computerized information system established as a service to all criminal justice agencies — local, state, and federal. The goal of NCIC 2000 is to help the criminal justice community perform its duties by providing and maintaining a computerized filing system of accurate and timely documented criminal justice information.
