- Center for Technology
in Government - The Center for Technology in Government works with government to develop information strategies that foster innovation and enhance the quality and coordination of public services. This is accomplished through applied research and partnership projects that address the policy, management and technology dimensions of information use in the public sector.
The justice enterprise faces many performance challenges that can be addressed more successfully through better information-sharing initiatives. These challenges differ widely in their scope and complexity. The Center for Technology in Government has produced a Capability Assessment Toolkit and a complementary Web-based version, called the Online Tool, on the subject of information sharing and collaboration. This toolkit is designed for justice professionals to use when considering or planning a justice information-sharing initiative.
