FBI's Investigation's Weapons of Mass Destruction Coordinator Program

DOJ OIG – The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Weapons of Mass Destruction Coordinator Program, Audit Report 09-36, September 2009

  • “In part to improve its information-sharing capabilities within the greater U.S. Intelligence Community, the FBI is in the process of implementing a new organizational framework and intelligence process to catalyze the production of timely and actionable intelligence reports. We found that the FBI has not formalized a method to facilitate collaboration between WMD Coordinators and Intelligence Analysts that ensures WMD Coordinators can fully use field division analytical capabilities to plan and perform their work. Furthermore, the FBI does not require its Field Intelligence Groups to designate specific Intelligence Analysts to work with WMD Coordinators. As a result of these issues, WMD Coordinators had limited or inconsistent interaction with their Field Intelligence Group, which has hindered them from fully applying intelligence to identify specific WMD threats facing their field division.”
