Modernising IT services in the criminal justice system (CJS)

Exploring the role of IT in supporting business process transformation and multi-agency working

The £2.24 billion Criminal Justice Information Technology Programme seeks to transform and catapult the UK criminal justice system into the 21st Century. The emphasis is on revolutionising the IT architecture and information management processes to convert the CJS into a modern, effective and competent amalgamation of organisations. This unparalleled undertaking will seek to realise a joined-up justice system that is capable of sharing and managing critical information securely.

This conference will provide best practice case studies from those agencies making positive steps in improving their IT systems. Expert practitioners will address the obstacles for implementation; solutions found and offer concrete examples of the progress being made. This forum will concentrate on the reality of the IT change and provide the criminal justice community with an in-depth understanding of how IT is supporting change. Learn how:

• West Yorkshire Police are sharing intelligence securely
• Youth Justice Board is engaging staff and managing change
• Department of Constitutional Affairs is delivering “joined-up justice”

This event will draw on the latest best practice from leading agencies and offers an excellent opportunity to acquire an update on the progress being made. In response to the difficulties that IT practitioners face in transforming the criminal justice system, the event will conclude with an interactive workshop on effective methods for achieving secure information sharing.
