STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)

3.1 BACKGROUND

The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) is an instrumental leader in the development of policies and programs to combat international narcotics and crime.

INL programs support two of the Department of States' strategic goals: (1) to reduce the entry of illegal drugs into the United States; and (2) to minimize the impact of international crime on the United States and its citizens. One of the many ways to effectively meet these goals is to partner with allied governments both directly and indirectly to promote the modernization of and support the enforcement operations of their foreign criminal justice systems and law enforcement agencies.

The INL section of the U.S. Embassy in Guatemala is responsible for the administration of programs and funds. INL works very closely with U.S. Law Enforcement Agencies to ensure that Guatemala has training and tools needed in the fight against transnational Gangs. INL also works very directly with various Government of Guatemala (GOG) institutions such as

Ministry of Government, Ministry of Health, Ministry of Education, Guatemalan Narcotics

Police, Guatemalan Civilian National Police (PNC), Guatemalan Immigration, and

Guatemalan Customs.

As part of the Letter of Agreement between the GOG and the USG INL-G is responsible for supporting and funding the changes and improvements to the FBI Vetted Units.

In accordance with LOA signed on 2015, Project 6 – Vetted Units – The Transnational Anti-

Gang (TAG) Unit is a Task Force comprised of vetted police officers from the Guatemala

PNC that work with personnel from the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) of the United

States of America in investigations led by this agency. The project objective is helping the

Guatemalan National Civil Police (PNC) develop the capacity to solve and prevent crimes and restore respect for law. This project focuses on conducting investigation of transnational crimes committed by the MS-13 and 18 Street gangs in Guatemala. The Project will support and strengthen coordination with similar FBI led units that exist in El Salvador and Honduras to enhance the ability of the national police forces of each country to effectively combat transnational crimes.

In 2017, INL purchased Cellebrite Universal Forensic Extraction Devices (UFED) model

Touch 2, with an exclusive license for desktop applications that were associated with each of the UFED devices. The UFED devices are used to access digital data during law enforcement investigations.

Cellebrite Responder and Uniform Forensic Extraction Device (UFED) Ultimate software is used to extract data from mobile devices. The extracted data can then be reviewed and is then used as evidence in criminal investigations. The Cellebrite hardware devices and associated software are mission critical to extract data that may be of evidential value in criminal investigations. Cellebrite software is the current industry standard for the extraction and analysis of mobile data, used by law enforcement.
