1. Montana Integrated Justice Information System BrokerImplementing Standards Based Information Exchange Montana Department of Justice Montana Department of Administration MAXIMUS, Inc

2. Background • Inefficient, incomplete and largely manual information exchanges causing systemic issues at all levels of the justice enterprise and compromising public safety • Compounded by: • Large geographic area • 147,046 square miles • Covers the Mountain Time Zone • Widely dispersed population (902,195 people) • Large number of autonomous justice practitioners • Law Enforcement Agencies – 120+ • Prosecutors – 56+ • Courts – 150+ • State Agency – 3 • Various levels and types of information technology installed • Past effort to standardize on a homogeneous platform been costly and ineffective • No ability to achieve a statewide implementation • Limited technical resources and funding 2

3. Example Real World Issues • Incomplete driver histories because of non-standard reporting and dependency on manual paper process • People driving operating while under suspension • Felony DUI cases not being properly pursued • Reinstated drivers being inappropriately cited because their license status not properly updated • Incomplete criminal history records without court dispositions because of dependency on manual reporting process • Prosecutor charging decisions being made without a complete background of dangerous criminals • Law Enforcement without adequate information to ensure public safety • State licensing and public hiring decisions being made with incomplete information • Beneficial criminal photo information in local agencies not available statewide • Enhancement to identification • State and local agencies not meeting requirements for crime victim notification • Uncoordinated and incomplete reporting to victims of crime causing undue and unnecessary stress • Non-standard approach difficult for victims of crime to understand and receive benefit of notification service • Limited ability to exchange investigative information among law enforcement agencies • Labor intensive process to analyze data from multiple systems 3

4. Mission • Develop a broad capability for justice information sharing that: • Provides complete accurate and timely information among governmental entities and the public • Delivers a cost-effective, standard based platform for local and state use • Is extendable beyond the initial information exchanges being addressed • Protects the privacy rights of citizens • Maintains the security of the information • Avoids unnecessary duplication 4

5. Expected & Realized Business Benefits • Reduced redundant data entry • Reduced delays in the flow of information between agencies • Improved information available to agencies • Improved staff productivity • Reduced dependence on other stakeholder organization’s response resources • Reduced time locating information or data • Improved data integrity • Improved acquisition of data for policy and planning decisions • Improved efficiencies in the administration of justice • Improve public safety in Montana 5

6. Solution Design Principals • Facilitating business process is the fundamental driving force • Information should be captured once, at the point or origin, and be re-used throughout the enterprise • Participants must retain the right to design, construct and operate information systems that support their own business requirements • Re-use of the existing information technology capabilities is essential and required • The integrated system will ensure traceability of persons associated with the enterprise • The integrated system will ensure traceability of events and information exchanges within the enterprise business cycle • The integrated system will be standards based to ensure the greatest degree of inter-operability 6

7. Body of Work Leveraged • Publications: • Concept for the Operations for Integrated Justice Information Sharing – NASCIO • Roadmap for Integrated Justice: A Guide for Planning and Management – SEARCH • A Framework for Justice Information Sharing: Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) -- Global Infrastructure/Standards Working Group • Building Exchange Content Using the Global Justice XML Data Model: A User Guide for Practitioners and Developers – Bureau of Justice Statistics • GJXDM Information Exchange Package Documentation Guidelines- GJXDM XML Structure Task Force • Justice Data Standards and Tools • Global Justice XML Data Model – Office of Justice Programs • Global JXDM Schema Subset Generation Tool – Georgia Tech Resource Institute • GJXDM Wayfarer 2.0 - National Center for the State Courts • Justice Information Exchange Modeling - SEARCH 7

8. Realized Advantages • Reaped ideas, concepts, and work of similarly situated groups trying to solve the same problem • Adopting the recommendations and standards fast tracked several key decisions that could have otherwise stalled out a project of this size and complexity • Provides a common vocabulary for discussing information exchange among diverse justice practitioners • Applying the provided concepts and tools works 8

9. State CIO Perspective • Broader enterprise application of solution • Not a Justice domain specific problem • Information exchange is universal need • Positions State to implement emerging National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) • Application of Emerging Technologies • Technology and solutions provide for extensive re-use • Provides for leveraging current State investment in information technology infrastructure • Interagency Cooperation • Improved delivery of services to the citizens of Montana 9

10. Value Proposition • Grassroots bottom up approach supported across the justice practitioners • Constitutional separation of powers is protected • Full benefit of exchanges implemented • Realize immediate benefits stream without full implementation • Reduced fix cost over time • Scalability of the solution • Locals are not required to have full-time IT support 10

11. Project Phases • Establish IJIS Broker Environment • Driver History Disposition Reporting • Crime Victims Notification • Criminal Photo Repository Population and Dissemination • Enhanced E2E Fingerprint Processing • e-Citation Filing • e-Disposition Reporting • 17 Month Duration • Iterative Sub-phases in each effort 11

12. Why These? • Identifiable business driver • Where is funding available • Which partners are ready 12

15. Motor Vehicle Disposition Reporting • Automated submission of disposition, suspension and reinstatement actions from courts to motor vehicle division • Participants • Montana Courts of Limited Jurisdiction (120+) • Montana Supreme Court Office of the Court Administrator • Montana Department of Justice • Benefits • Increased reporting of court findings and actions • Better and more complete information • More accurate Driver Histories • Transformed from a “when I get around to sending them” process to a next day application • Elimination of paper based submission and entry 15

16. Photo Image Capture System • Creation of a web service enabled image repository • Participants • Local Law Enforcement • Montana Department of Corrections • Montana Department of Justice • Benefits • Establishes a statewide repository of Criminal Photos, Missing Persons, and Concealed Weapon Permits • Extendable to any imaging needs required through simple web service calls • Images distributed via the web and in JTF XML Rap Sheet Standards 16

17.

21. Discovered Advantages to GJXDM • Inherit XML Standard Advantages • Provides consistency among exchanges so that like fields are always named and "typed" the same • No more pre-defined array sizes, field lengths, etc. ala flat files • The XML you use to load your database can be the same XML you use to build your web page, PDF, Word document, SVG, etc. • Solution Development Advantages • Interfaces with various systems use a common structure for common parts of the message • Less thinking about how to build the schema and more about the contents of the schema • Once the data that to be included in an exchange is defined, it is quick and easy to generate a subset schema that contains those fields in a logical and defined manner • Support of a very robust set of tools (Wayfarer and SSGT) • Wide programming language adoption of API or built in functionality to use XML • Business Advantages • Structured XML and schemas based on a foundation of Justice business usage and architecture • Inclusion of enumerations for commonly used sets of information (such as NCIC Country Codes, etc) 21

22.
