Justice Information Sharing

IJIS Institute core services exist to assist state, local, and tribal justice and public safety organizations achieve cross-agency, cross-jurisdictional, and cross-sector information sharing. Since our inception in 2001, we have assisted justice and public safety agencies, through our partnership with industry, achieve the successful application of standards-based information sharing solutions.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) Office of Justice Programs (OJP), through the Global Justice Information Sharing Advisory Committee, has developed a standard model for the exchange of information between organizations involved in law enforcement and justice organizations. Beginning with the Global Justice XML Data Model (GJXDM), and now with the National Information Exchange Model (NIEM), the IJIS Institute is a key provider of technology assistance services to state, local, and tribal justice and public safety agencies.
