Enabling interoperability in county government criminal justice information systems
Across the country, local agencies (e.g., sheriff, district attorney and courts) must share information with each other, as well as regional and federal partners, to reliably shepherd their constituents through the criminal justice continuum. Because these agencies typically use different case management systems, an integrated justice system (IJS) serves as the data and interoperability backbone that facilitates data exchange and workflow orchestration between agencies. Without it, jurisdictions struggle with tasks such as identifying persons of interest across multiple systems and connecting relevant case information. The lack of an adequately connected data system also impedes decision-making for officials, jeopardizing local governments’ ability to serve their constituents. However, because of technology obsolescence, data silos and security vulnerabilities, many IJSs cannot easily be modernized to most effectively and safely serve their missions.
Our solution enables a connected justice ecosystem through National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) standard based interoperability and can help agencies modernize their IJS while addressing four major needs. Our run anywhere platform, with pre-baked Criminal Justice Information System (CJIS) security controls, empowers agencies to achieve day one value and realize a sustainable path toward authority to operate production workloads in the cloud. Using generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) capabilities, our solution helps users quickly analyze and understand enterprise data through a person-centric, standards-oriented graph data model and efficient integration platform, leading to accelerated insights. The solution provides a unified, broad view of data and comprehensive systems integration, helping foster consistency, integrity and trust in data across the justice continuum. This visibility empowers stakeholders to answer complex questions by creating a versatile, interconnected layer for data integration.
A knowledge graph gives users access to the data they need, when they need it. Configurable, proactive alerts further enhance the user experience.
Commodity technologies, cloud deployment, and DevOps automation reduce the cost of ownership and dependence on niche skill sets.
The use of NIEM facilitates collaboration with other jurisdictions and federal agencies, which have already embraced the standard.
