Project Name:
JIMS 3.0 (Justice Information Management System)
Scope:
Justice Information Management System (JIMS) 3.0 is a data integration project aimed to amalgamate, re-design and implement several disjointed reporting data marts containing court data into an Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) and a set of dependent data mart and views. This project will replace the existing six stand-alone IBM Cognos BI data marts JIMS, Crown File Ownership (CFO), Court Case Management (CCM), Courtroom Utilization, Courtroom Activity, and Case Adjournment) with a well-integrated data warehouse. The existing data marts extract, process, re-structure and aggregate data required for strategic, operational and ad hoc reporting of court data stored in the Justice Online Information Network (JOIN) database. The goal of the project is to evolve availability, governance and reporting of court data by implementing a more efficient, user-friendly, faster and cost-effective reporting architecture.
