The company will provide justice integration server (JIS) software and related systems integration services. The JIS allows all agencies within the justice and public safety arena to share information with one another in a safe and controlled manner. Agencies with disparate systems (RMS, CAD, JMS, CMS, etc.) can publish or access relevant data without the need for programming. Agencies are free to share as much or as little data with their partners in a highly secure manner without having to give up ownership of the data. Installation will be complete by September 30, 2003.
