Volusia County, FL Contracts with Tiburon, Inc. for Criminal Justice Information System Integration
ANNAPOLIS, Md.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–CompuDyne Corporation (NASDAQ:CDCY) an industry leader in sophisticated security products, integration and technology for the public security markets, announced today that the County of Volusia, Florida has signed a $500 thousand contract with CompuDyne’s Public Safety and Justice unit, Tiburon, Inc. of Pleasanton, CA. to provide integration of the Sheriff Department’s Records Management System with the County’s regional Criminal Justice Information System (CJIS). Tiburon is an industry-leading provider of automated public safety and justice systems to meet the demanding and complex needs of law enforcement, fire & rescue, corrections and justice environments
Volusia County Sheriff will be operating a regional law enforcement Records Management System to be installed by Tiburon in November of 2007. Local law enforcement agencies will use this regional database to store information related to arrests, citations, contacts, incidents, pawned property and more, while still maintaining their own data and security parameters. Authorized law enforcement officials can link related incidents and perpetrators, locate stolen property and indicate crime patterns and trends across jurisdictional boundaries.
By integrating the Department’s regional records management database with the CJIS hub, critical criminal justice information can be quickly and accurately shared with the County’s court and jail management systems. This data exchange brings together once disparate systems into a comprehensive network of consolidated information.
“The ability to share information between our 17 law enforcement municipalities, County Government, Clerks Office, State Attorney and the Court systems is paramount,” says George Conlon, Director of Information Systems for the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office. “With the CJIS interface developed by Tiburon, the door to inter-agency communications and data flow is now possible. We look forward to working with Tiburon again on this important project.”
