The initiative aims to improve the analysis of crime risks by integrating information from state agencies and considering socio-economic factors, and at the conclusion of the presentation Mirziyoyev signed a decree introducing the new assessment model and instructed officials to implement digital analysis and monitoring mechanisms.

The proposed model includes a crime stability index for the first time and a unified crime-related data platform integrating information resources from various state agencies, with artificial intelligence used to analyze and forecast crime risks and regional crime maps developed to identify areas requiring preventive measures; crime conditions in individual regions and mahallas will be assessed continuously, with preventive measures determined according to identified risk levels. The model will also introduce specific outcome indicators for evaluating the performance of responsible government agencies.
