CPI implemented a Fennec Broker-based solution that utilizes the OpenFox Message Switch and an aggregator to query the Arizona HotFiles, Criminal History, Law Enforcement Judicial Information System (“LEJIS”), and Sex Offender data repositories to provide users with consolidated responses.
The Arizona Offender Based Tracking System (OBTS) provides a central index of offenders with records in CCH, HFS, Sex Offender Registry (SORS), Arizona Department of Corrections (OBSC), and Law Enforcement Judicial Information System (LEJIS). With a single inquiry using specific message keys, ACJIS users can search the OBTS index to determine if a person has a record in multiple systems.
CPI OpenFox has replaced the Arizona DPS Mainframe with a CPI Fennec broker-based solution that queries the source system directly, including Arizona Law Enforcement Judicial Information System (LEJIS) data migrated from the current OBTS Mainframe database.
The scope of work included but was not limited to the following items:
