CGI has added applications development outsourcing for state and local courts and justice agencies to its suite of services to help government agencies operate more efficiently. In addition to justice agencies, CGI’s government expertise includes state and local agencies, federal housing agencies and human capital services agencies.

Government outsourcing experts join CGI
Through the liquidation of the Court Solutions Division of Netgov.com, CGI has acquired certain assets and government contracts that expand the service offering of CGI’s Government Division in the U.S. More than a dozen executives and technical experts with in-depth government experience have joined CGI, and developed the industry-leading justice system solutions being utilized in courts around the U.S.

What CGI provides
CGI utilizes Web-enabled technologies, data management systems and data warehousing capabilities to improve efficiencies in government justice system operations. The innovative e-filing, knowledge management and process management product suite seamlessly integrates with in-house case management systems to provide 24-hour web-based court functionality. The system allows attorneys to file pleadings, submit related documents, and pay filing fees through the Internet.

“Our new justice system services, combined with CGI’s proven technology expertise, and our track record in the government domain offer a value proposition for our clients that is unique in the marketplace,” said Gregory Robinson, principal in CGI’s U.S.-based government division.

Government agencies utilizing CGI’s new applications development and maintenance outsourcing services for justice systems include the Summit County (Ohio) Clerk of Courts; Allegheny County (Pennsylvania) Prothonotary; the 19th District Circuit Court of Florida; and several agencies in Cuyahoga County (Ohio).
