As the State move towards commercial-off-the-shelf court case management systems and courts move away from centrally provided systems, statewide reporting and access to data are greatly diminished.
AOC is responsible for providing a variety of statewide level reports and for sharing court data to justice partners and governmental agencies. Due to the changing case management system environment from a centralized to a decentralized model, statewide reports are becoming more complex to aggregate and produce, and in some cases due to the lack of data, reports are incomplete. The availability and access to court data for the purposes of distribution and sharing is also negatively impacted.
The AOC created the Enterprise Data Repository (EDR) to house a limited and agreed upon set of statewide court data. AOC and court data source systems are to send standard data to the repository. Once in the EDR, the data can be made available for additional processing so it can be placed in a reportable format for distribution and sharing. It is important to note that the EDR is not a reporting solution. It is a repository that holds data coming from different sources. In order to report on the data, the data must be extracted from the EDR, transformed, verified, and then moved into a different data environment for reporting purposes. This gap must be addressed strategically and at the enterprise level to ensure the goals of data reporting, distribution, and sharing are met.
