AWARDS & RECOGNITION
2011 Awards: Data, Information and Knowledge Management
RECIPIENT:
Michigan - Department of Human Services Decision Support System
In Michigan, more than 1,000 Department of Human Services (DHS) county managers in 115 DHS offices across the state use enterprise data distributed to their desktop to make decisions locally and better target services to their local communities and beneficiaries.
The Bridges Information Management Mart (BRIMM) extracts caseload information nightly from the DHS eligibility determination and benefit issuance system (known as Bridges). This localized data is then used by management in the assignment of caseloads, and to build and maintain dashboard reports and outcome measurement reports specific to each county office. This same system aggregates client information across multiple systems into one place. This helps significantly hasten the benefit redetermination process.
BRIMM has helped DHS county managers move from a reactive mode to a proactive, forward-looking mode. In so doing, DHS has dramatically improved caseworker productivity, management productivity, and, perhaps most importantly, citizen wellbeing by making data-driven decisions locally and quickly. BRIMM vividly illustrates the evolution of the enterprise data warehouse in Michigan — a major agency using data prospectively to positively affect outcomes and improve the operations of state government.
