Better known as the new Crime Incident Report System, PNP Chief Police Director General Nicanor A. Bartolome, led the inauguration of the ‘e-Blotter’ at the three (3) Police stations in Cagayan de Oro: Divisoria, Agora and Macabalan as the pilot areas in the region.
E-Blotter system, a priority program of Dir. Gen. Bartolome, is geared towards enhancing the crime reporting system in the country for effective law enforcement, public safety and efficient administration of justice.
P/Dir. Gen. Bartolome cited the system facilitates crime documentation and modernize data storage but also presents quick, fast and reliable transmission of crime information from police station to the PNP headquarters at Camp Crame as an effective management tool for decision makers and security planners to have an easy and intelligent way of mapping out peace and order and anti-criminality strategy.

The primary goal of the e-Blotter system is to have a daily update on what is really happening on the ground, particularly in every police station which is vital in mapping out strategies for quick response and crime prevention, said Bartolome.
The e-Blotter is designed as a stand-alone system which will be installed in all police stations as a means of reporting and monitoring all crime incidents that transpired within their respective areas as well as the results and records of the investigation.
While the traditional blotter has been recognized as a symbol of police authority, the e-Blotter, meanwhile, ensures accuracy in crime data documentation, reliability in storage for quick reference and hassle-free transmission of data to the end recipient of all police reports at the PNP.
The new system is a cost-free project since the software is being developed locally by the programmers of the PNP Information Technology Management Service (ITMS) and shall be installed into the desktop of every police stations and units.
The new management tool will not only simplify the gathering and organization of crime information but also provide instant and accurate crime statistics that is tamper-free, said Police Chief Superintendent Jufel C. Adriatico, Regional Director, Police Regional Office (PRO)-10.
He said this new system will promote transparency in the police community since it is one way of enhancing the crime reporting system in the country for effective law enforcement, which requires comprehensive, adequate and timely information on crimes. (Elaine O. Ratunil/PIA-10)
