ISS is continually sharpening our focus on developing our eGovernment - Criminal Justice Practice. Our research indicates that State and Local government entities are positioning themselves to leverage Internet based technologies, the maturing standards for integration and communications between agencies at Federal, State and Local levels, and the continuing reduction of technology costs available in the market today. The challenges facing State and Local governments significantly impact their ability to grow and maintain adequate revenue streams to fund vital projects.
Some of these challenges include: |
• |
Aging IT systems and infrastructure |
• |
Increased need to reference or exchange information from internal and external departments or agencies |
• |
Continued pressure to keep budgets low due to economic trends |
• |
Requirements to provide new services to the public |
| • |
Increasing or decreasing of population base’s effect on operating environments |
ISS’ innovative work in Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), intelligence-based business automation, and Web-based integration to legacy systems has served our clients well and has positioned us to be a partner for eGovernment projects over the last 15 years. Here are some of the highlights that make ISS a powerful eGovernment business partner: |
