Information Technology Development Management

The technology innovations addressed in this agency strategic plan are listed by each of the two major issues. The specific goal/objective they relate to is designated at the end in parenthesis. Also, of these initiatives, those that affect more than one agency, have outcomes impacting another agency, or exceed $500,000 in total cost over one year are identified.

ISSUE 1: Enhance Public Safety By Effectively Incarcerating Inmates And Supervising Offenders In The Community.

Developing Technology

• The computerized security staff utilization system also called roster management program. (1-1.1D)
• Offender/inmate check-in/out system at community control centers. (1-1.1E)
• A system to monitor movement and location of inmates throughout the prison compound. (1-1.1F)
• The Inmate Disruption Index quantifies/predicts the identification of potential disruptive inmates. (1-1.3D)
• The Automated Classification Management & Evaluation System (ACMES) is an integrated system that automates all core inmate classification processes. (1-1.1D & 1-1.3C)
  • Four ACMES's systems are completed: Risk and Needs System; Integrated Assessment and Placement System (IAPS); Automated Discipline and Integrated Offender System (ADIOS); Classification Contact Log (including critical case management log).
  • Nine of ACMES's systems are developing systems:
    • Custody Assessment and Reclassification System (CARS) enhances objectivity of the custody determination system.
    • Work and Program Assignment System (AWAPS) automates the inmate screening for work and program placement.
    • Transition Assistance and Referral System automates the transition assistance program, featuring a computerized community resources referral directory.
    • Progress Report System computerizes periodic inmate reviews; automates transfer recommendations and key inmate progress recommendations.
    • Close Management Report System automates placement and periodic reviews of violent/disruptive inmates.
    • Protective Management System automates the assessment, placement, and periodic review of inmates needing protection.
    • Confinement System is automates assessment, placement, and periodic review of inmates placed in administrative or disciplinary confinement.
    • Visitation System computerizes the developing of visitors lists and tracking visitation contacts. (1-1.3F)
    • Performance Excellence Results System tracks the key indicators of ACMES performance to meet management goals.
  • There is one developing compatibility system:
    • Integration of ACMES with Probation and Parole systems will merge the systems that are complementary for institutional and community corrections management.
• Automated offender needs assessment system. (1-2.1C)
• Probation Officer Workstation cases management system. (1-2.2D)

More Than One Agency Involvement

• ACMES Transition Assistance and Referral System will involve the Department of Labor and Employment Security and the federal Immigration and Naturalization Service.

Outcomes Impacting Another Agency

• None.

Exceeds $500,000 Over One Year

• None.
