Technical Services Unit

The Technical Services Unit is responsible for developing and maintaining the following data base information systems for MBCC:

• Montana/National Incident Based Crime Reporting (NIBRS);
• Juvenile Detention Information System (JDR);
• Juvenile Offence Statistical Data (CAPS & JCATS);
• Peace & Correctional Officer Standards & Training Certification (POST);
• Grant Management Information System (GMIS);
• Crime Victim Assistance Information System (PDQ);
• Grant Web-Based Information System (GWIS); and
• Manpower Web-Entry System (MWES).

Developing, updating and maintaining these systems requires considerable planning and programming. TSU is currently moving towards web-based on-line access for our Board members and on-line access to applications, reporting, and information retrieval services for our customers. Programming services are arranged through programmers approved by the state Information Technical Services Division.
