Members of CID are often assigned to several area task forces, such as the Child Abuse Task Force, ATF Violent Crime Task Force, and the Baldwin County Major Crimes Task Force. Polygraph examinations are also conducted at this office. In the course of their duties CID investigators work with various other county, state, and federal agencies, such as the Baldwin County District Attorney's Office, Alabama Department of Human Resources, Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences, FBI, Secret Service, etc.

The Forensic Services Division is responsible for locating, documenting, collecting, analyzing, preserving, and storing of evidence. Forensic Services personnel use technical equipment and a variety of chemical processes to accomplish their tasks. This includes the utilization of 3D scanning and the production of visual aids, both virtual and physical for courtroom purposes. Unmanned aerial systems are utilized and maintained by the Forensic Services Division. Forensic Services also provides personnel to external partners for digital evidence examination. Forensic Services personnel routinely work with the Baldwin County Coroner's Office and the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences to investigate crimes.

The Narcotics Division is the lead entity of the Baldwin County Drug Task Force, which is comprised of narcotics officers from numerous local agencies assigned on a full-time basis. The Narcotics Division’s responsibilities involve the purchase of illegal drugs by the use of undercover officers or informants, investigation of drug related complaints and crimes, working jointly with state and federal agencies, the execution of search warrants, and the arrests of persons involved in illegal drug activity.
