“Ten Years of Effort – What works and what to watch out for”
Original 1996 KCJIS Goals Create an integrated criminal justice system for Kansas Move from “paper” to “electronic” information Improve quality and timeliness of information Automate fingerprint identification process Replace legacy Computerized Criminal History (CCH) Create electronic access for ALL potential users Become Triple I (III) Compliant and Approved Create a “One-Stop Shop” for criminal justice users
KCJIS Project Background Criminal Justice Coordinating Council System Planning began in 1996 $12 million budget for “Core” system (70% Federal) Initial system became operational in state agencies, approximately 900 local agencies (There are currently 1689 agencies using KCJIS in Kansas) “Core” system completed in June 2003 Currently implementing “planned expansion” phase
KCJIS Accomplishments “Statewide” authorization to access NCIC via Internet User base has grown to authorized users Processed 322,000,000 transactions in 2006 Roll-out of statewide court system (FullCourt) DL Photos (2M on file) immediately available to LE Misdemeanor Warrants at 227,000 and growing rapidly Kansas Car Stop (KCS) is available to all officers Supervision Repository (KASPER) is operational New CCH system is now operational and in use Kansas is approved as III & NFF compliant
What we’re working on! Complete rollout of Kansas Prosecutor System (KPS) Electronic Journal Entries (In-court processing) Electronic Kansas Disposition Reports New, Easier, Electronic Field Reporting System Implement Document Imaging for Courts and Prosecutors Replacing AFIS include 2-Finger Mobile & Palm Print Replace Offender Management Sys in Corrections Expand beyond Criminal Justice into social services and education; “tie it all together” Easier “one-stop shopping’ via KCJIS Increasing use of Wireless Technology
Kansas Keys to Success Governance Structure Statewide Network Infrastructure Standards User Directed Development High Speed Network (fast) - SWITCH Internet Delivery (cheap) - PORTAL Maximize Security Provide Oversight for Legislators Positive Attitude Among Leadership Leadership Team “TEAMWORK” and “CONSENSUS”
Issues to be aware of………… Scope Creep “the perfectionist” Marginal Vendors Loss of Institutional Knowledge Long-term Funding Stream
Issues to dream about………… I desperately want to “Google” all of my databases and sprinkle my desk with tidbits of information that may be useful in my investigation. I desperately want the system to automatically send me information, when it happens, about people or events I need to know about
Kansas Criminal Justice Integrated System (KCJIS) It’s a ONE STOP SHOP It’s SECURE It’s INTEGRATED It’s TEAM-BUILT It WORKS!
…..and we’ve just begun………
Thank you! I welcome your questions! Gordon Lansford (cell)
