A.1: Common Approach
Create a common approach to intelligence work through enterprise wide doctrine, policy, and production standards. Other Information:
The elevation of the FBI’s intelligence function to the program level allowed us to centralize management and create and implement
a detailed blueprint for the Intelligence Program. The FBI will uniformly implement, across all programs, its obligation to
produce intelligence and share it with our customers. The FBI views its mandate to produce intelligence as one part of a three-pronged
set of responsibilities. In addition to producing intelligence, the FBI will also ensure that the constitutional rights of
all citizens are protected and that it uses its intelligence resources responsibly. The intelligence work of the FBI is threat-based,
but constitutionally bound. Priority Actions: Develop and communicate to internal and external stakeholders doctrine and policy
for: (1) the production and use of intelligence among the practitioners of intelligence, the managers of FBI intelligence
resources, and the users of intelligence within the FBI; (2) the scope of the FBI’s authority to conduct intelligence activities;
(3) the framework to implement that authority; and (4) the role of the intelligence function within the FBI. Prescribe a set
of standards for intelligence production that relate to: (1) recognizing and understanding requirements; (2) communicating
with customers and processing feedback; (3) conducting research and analysis; (4) writing; and (5) reviewing and coordinating
products.
