System Overview

​Background

Criminal Justice Information System (CJIS - our justice system workhorse)

  • Core justice operational system utilized by the stakeholders
  • Resides on a mainframe in ADABAS
  • Implemented in phases from 1978 thru 1996
  • Supports: arrests/booking, known persons file, court calendaring and dispositions, jail management, warrant processing, local criminal history, Probation and Public Defender Case Management Systems
  • Currently in maintenance mode with minor enhancements

Over the Years

  • Technology has migrated towards client server vs. mainframe
  • Stakeholders are developing their own Case Management Systems
  • IT staffing has migrated from centralized to decentralized
  • Stakeholders desire to leverage CJIS data and use the information in a distributed environment for reporting, case processing, etc.
