CSI Forensic Supply is committed to serving law enforcement in many capacities, but more than anything we want to help YOU be more efficient and more effective at YOUR job while making life easier for YOU.
With that in mind, we have allocated funding for Research and Development of new products--but in order for us to focus our efforts on the right areas, we want to listen to your ideas for new product development.
Whether it's a new technology, an improvement on an existing product (that you purchase/ use within the context of your job), or even simply a problem or inconvenience that you can identify even if you don't know the best solution for it... basically, if there's a product that could be developed that would address the problem or the opportunity, then please let us know about it by submitting your entry.
Criteria
We are looking for:
Clear problem, proposed solution/ product (it's ok if you don't know what the best solution is, but try to include a solution to the problem).
Innovation (We already have Google, so don't suggest Google)
Scope of impact (How many other agencies could benefit? Are there other potential applications?)
Practicality/ Feasibility (We do not have the ability to clone another you so that you can multitask better, and we have to be mindful about customer budgets, so no space lasers please).
Helpful Prompts:
To help you brainstorm your ideas, we have included a few prompts that might get the creative juices flowing.
"It would be great if we could..."
"I spend way too much time with _____. A product that would ______ would fix this problem."
"It is difficult to find ______, which is something we could really use for _____"
"My job would be a lot easier if we had ______."
"Sometimes we have a difficult time with ______, and there's not really a great solution for it that I've seen."
And with that, we look forward to seeing what you have to say!
