NATIONAL CENTER FOR STATE COURTS COURT TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMS TECHNOLOGY INFORMATION SERVICE VENDOR LIST The National Center for State Courts' (NCSC) Court Technology Programs staff has compiled this list for court managers, administrators, and judges to use as a resource when looking for private sector providers of court technology products and services. The Vendor List is distributed widely in the courts community through the NCSC's Technology Information Service (TIS) and may be accessed through an electronic bulletin board service at (804) 253-2526. A Table of Vendors is provided on the next page, immediately followed by a chart which helps you select vendors in a particular technology (e.g., case management software, hardware and peripherals, network and communications, etc.). Vendor Profiles begin on page 1 in alphabetical order. In many cases, product literature and site references are available through the NCSC Technology Information Service. You will see this noted in the "Other" section of each Vendor Profile. In the "Computer environment" section, additional detail for case management vendors is included (modeled after software profiles in Computer SelectTM). The information provided in each profile was supplied by the vendor and is the responsibility of the vendor. Special recognition has been given to companies that: 1) have software, hardware, or other technologies represented in the NCSC's Court Technology Lab (CTL); 2) are active in the Forum on the Advancement of Court Technology (FACT); 3) were exhibitors at the Third National Court Technology Conference (CTC III), March 1992; 4) were exhibitors at the National Association for Court Management (NACM) annual conference in July 1992; and 5) have been featured in the NCSC's Court Technology Reports series. Many of these companies have also been featured in the NCSC's Court Technology Bulletin. This listing does not constitute an endorsement of any kind by the National Center for State Courts. Further, the list is not exhaustive, but represents information that has been collected in a database through an annual vendor survey. As we learn about new companies, we survey them for inclusion in the database. Please notify us of any additions or corrections to the company name, contact person, address or phone number.

CLS is an open architecture product designed for use by courts of all sizes. The software is functionally integrated and designed around the concept of workgroup processing. CLS accommodates all civil case types for both upper and lower division trial courts. It is a full function system that provides for civil case processing, court scheduling/calendaring, document control and processing, notice and report generation, event processing, court accounting, fast track/delay reduction monitoring and reporting, arbitration, judicial council and statistical reporting, and person/party involvement and indices. Court Management System (CMS) Atkisson and Associates' Court Management System (CMS) is a mainframe-based on-line transaction processing (OLTP) application that addresses the automation of trial court processing of citations, infractions, misdemeanors and felonies. CMS, designed for use by medium to large court jurisdictions, is a functionally integrated system which can be either mainframe or client server-based, operating as a stand- alone court application or as the main component of our larger, fully integrated Criminal Justice Information System (CJIS). CMS is a full function system which provides for citation processing, criminal case management, event processing, court scheduling/calendaring, docketing, bail forfeiture, fine accounting, bail bond accounting, involved person indices and statistics. Computer environment Civil Litigation System (CLS) The Civil Litigation System (CLS) has been designed as a GUI (Graphical User Interface) system which operates in a true client server network environment. Through open systems architecture it has achieved platform independence with regard to network operating system, client and server operating system, hardware, and SQL data base products. CLS also features a sophisticated electronic forms management package to handle system reporting requirements and to reduce or eliminate the need for preprinted forms. Computer environment (continued) Operating on 486 or better processors, CLS allows users to configure network environments which mix and match local and distributed data bases, OS/2, WINDOWS NT and UNIX servers as well as OS/2 and WINDOWS client workstations. The basic price of CLS is $250,000 with volume discounts available and payment options that include multi-year leases with bundled maintenance charges. Networking and workstation hardware sizing and costs are dependent on caseload volumes and other operational aspects of each customer's unique environment. Court Management System (CMS) The Court Management System (CMS) is designed to operate on IBM/370 architecture-based systems from the 9370 through the ES9000 series of computers. It performs under VM, VSE or MVS operating system environments and uses the IBM CICS communications monitor. The software is written in Cobol/Cobol II and requires a relational data base such as DB2 or SQL/DS to operate. CMS is currently being "downsized" to operate in a UNIX-based client server local area network environment and plans are underway to combine the functionality of CMS, CLS and Court Accounting in one set of compatible, integrated workstation-based products. CMS, installed in more than 10 courts (54 courtrooms) in five California counties since 1985, is leveraged software as opposed to packaged software, with a basic price of $273,600 (including Citation Processing). CMS, as leveraged software, is intended to provide the foundation of court processing functionality (80%, or greater, match to end-user requirements) and then to be customized to include the unique requirements of each individual court environment. Leveraging off the original product investment results in significant cost savings over the option of developing from scratch. Hardware sizing and total software costs depend on how many products are purchased, the extent of customization required, and production caseload volumetrics and on-line transaction rates unique to every installation.

This translates into over 100,000 offenders annually who are monitored on BI home arrest systems. We have also developed BI Profile, an exception-based automated service that replaces agencies' labor- intensive manual systems of caseload management. Offenders assigned to Profile call a "900" number and answer a series of questions asked by computer; e.g., address, telephone, employment changes, compliance, restitution payments, etc. Profile reports exceptions or missed calls to officials, enabling officers to spend their time supervising offenders who need their attention. The cost to participating agencies--and taxpayers--is nothing more than start up and training time. The service is entirely paid for by offenders. Computer environment The BI Home Escort system uses BI's proprietary software and the multi-tasking UNIX host computer which can handle hundreds of offenders simultaneously. The electronic radio frequency transmitter is installed on an offender's ankle, and a receiver called a field monitoring device (FMD) is installed in the offender's home. The transmitter produces a uniquely encoded beacon that communicates with the FMD, powered from a standard AC wall outlet. Using standard telephone lines, the FMD relays information received from the transmitter to a monitoring center's host computer. Monitoring agency personnel enter predetermined curfews that are part of the offender's sanctions. If an offender fails to comply with these terms or tampers with the transmitter, the host computer signals a violation and the officer in charge is alerted according to predetermined agency criteria. Scope of business The electronically monitored home detention market presents BI's greatest current opportunity. According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, federal and state prison populations have more than doubled since 1980, costing taxpayers an average of $15,270 to maintain one medium security prisoner for one year. Correctional agencies and institutions are actively looking for economical alternatives to incarceration. BI believes that its comprehensive product line provides one viable answer to the worldwide prison overcrowding situation. The primary users of electronically monitored home detention systems are correctional agencies involved in probation, parole, pretrial or work furlough programs at the federal, state and local levels, as well as similar entities internationally. Our market share in the U.S. is approximately 70%, and, with installations in Saskatchewan, British Columbia and the Yukon, an 85% share of the Canadian home detention market.
