Competency area: Law Enforcement & corrections

At ASD, we understand that the justice system does not end with the incarceration of criminals. We have been helping Corrections agencies safely and efficiently track inmates while effectively using tax payer dollars to improve information collection, processing and transfer among courts, correctional facilities, government managers, and the public-at-large.

Florida Department of Corrections (DOC)
For over 16 years, ASD has assisted DOC with projects aimed at improving the efficiency of the department. We recently implemented a data warehouse that will consolidate and house over 25 years of records from several agencies. The new system will eliminate the need for storage on various databases, access in various languages, and housing on many different hardware platforms and operating systems. The system uses analysis services and business intelligence tools to report information in almost real time.

Alabama Criminal Justice Information Center (ACJIC)
ASD developed a smart-client application that gives law enforcement officers the ability to enter data on their local machines without the need of internet connectivity. The application is designed to communicate with approved wireless access points to automatically upload data from the officer’s machine to the central repository. Traveling through an access point is enough to establish the data exchange with the central server.

Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE)
ASD provided FDLE with project managers, along with primary and supplemental staffing, for COBOL and Progeni applications' development and maintenance. When FDLE’s Criminal History Information  System (also known as “Rapsheet”) was made available to the public via the web, ASD worked with VeriSign to implement an e-commerce solution to facilitate payment with credit cards. 

Alabama Department of Corrections (ADOC)
The Inmate Movements and Assignments System (IMAS) delivered by ASD is designed as a web-based module built on a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). IMAS makes heavy use of AJAX in order to deliver a rich, high-performance user interface to both the central office and users out in the field. The system provides an invaluable planning tool for various purposes, ranging from routine inmate movement and reassignment to disaster preparation. Prior to IMAS ADOC’s 29 state correctional facilities operated completely disconnected from the central office. Departmental administrators never knew how many empty beds were at their facilities at any given time. Using Microsoft's .NET technology, ASD totally revolutionized the way DOC operates. Administrators now know with a few keystrokes exactly where each and every inmate is 24 hours a day and exactly how many empty beds they have at their facility.
