TechShare provides opportunities for counties to collaborate on technology projects and to share information resources.

 

TechShare projects are mutual efforts where participants save money by sharing the cost of research and development. Projects can produce applications, systems, or other technology assets owned by the Urban Counties and available to all members.

Juvenile Case Management System (JCMS)
The Juvenile Case Management System project brings together separate efforts of multiple member counties with a unified process that reduces duplication, leverages existing work, and increases market power, and provides each participating county with a state-of-the-art integrated juvenile justice system at a greatly reduced cost.

Funding Counties have decided to combine their efforts and resources to participate in this project to develop a Juvenile Case Management System to meet their common needs and have agreed to competitively procure such a system.

The JCMS is a comprehensive juvenile justice information and case management system that will provide for the common data collection, reporting and management needs of Texas juvenile probation departments as well as the flexibility to accommodate individualized requirements. It is anticipated that the system will consist of several modules-Intake, Courts, Probation Case Management, Programs, Facilities/Instructions, Law Enforcement and Juvenile Justice alternative Education Program. With the creation of the JCMS, there will be one integrated juvenile justice software system based on a single source code.

Common Integrated Justice System (CIJS)
The CIJS is a set of functional applications that will enable the effective and efficient administration of justice for the Urban Counties’ membership. It is based on a common architecture that will provide rapid sharing of justice information across county lines while providing each member county with advanced justice management capabilities.

Juvenile Information System (JIS)
JIS provides users with a forum for information sharing and collaboration through a centralized database of juvenile information. The application provides functionality for law enforcement, district attorney, municipal courts, district courts/clerks, school districts, intake, detention, probation, victim services, mediation and other juvenile departments. JIS also provides participants with a complete tool for end-to-end processing of juvenile offenders


Adult Case Management System (ACMS)

ACMS Phase 1 is the first phase of an integrated adult criminal justice case management system to be developed and deployed in Bexar and Dallas Counties, respectively. It is part of the evolution of the Common Integrated Justice System initiative that has been a part of the Urban Counties TechShare Program since its inception in April 2004.
