Justice information systems integration is not a new idea - agencies throughout the nation recognize the importance of integrating information systems to share critical data, documents, images, and key transactions. State and local jurisdictions are actively developing integrated justice information systems plans and programs. Integrated systems improve the quality of information and the quality of decisions, by eliminating error-prone, redundant data entry. By sharing data among systems, integration typically improves the timely access to information, a critical factor at many justice decision points.
