TheNational Ballistics Intelligence Service, orNABIS, is a Britishintelligence service dedicated to managing and providing detailed information regardingfirearm-related criminality. The service aims to use its database to store ballistics information about police cases involving firearms, and consequently maintain it for future use and reference.[1] The service operates four facilities to test and analyse firearms evidence to help link it with other cases.[2] These are based inBirmingham,London,Manchester and atGartcosh in the Scottish Crime Campus in the town.[3]

The service was officially launched on 1 April 2008[4] and can be roughly compared to theIntegrated Ballistics Identification System operating in the United States.

NABIS is an independent national policing organisation that is hosted byWest Midlands Police (WMP) for financial and legal purposes.[5] Four regional forensic hubs operate within four host forces/organisations: Greater Manchester Police (GMP), West Midlands Police (WMP), Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) and the Glasgow unit of SPA Forensic Services.[6] The staff are around 40 in number.[7]
