**I. Overview for Justice Information Sharing Technology (JIST)**

The FY 2008 Justice Information Sharing Technology (JIST) budget will
provide for a total of 79 positions and \$100,500,000. The JIST fund was
established in FY 2006 and this submission represents the third year of
the fund. The fund will provide for corporate investments in Information
Technology (IT). As a centralized fund under the control of the
Department of Justice Chief Information Officer, it will ensure that
investments in information sharing technology and infrastructure
enhancements are well planned and aligned with the Department\'s overall
IT strategy and enterprise architecture. There is no provision for
enhancements in this budget. Beginning in FY 2007, electronic copies of
the Department of Justice's congressional budget justifications and
Capital Asset Plan and Business Case exhibits can be viewed or
downloaded from the Internet using the Internet address:
[**[http://www.usdoj.gov/jmd/2008justification/]{.underline}**](http://www.usdoj.gov/jmd/2008justification/).

The JIST budget also includes funding for the Unified Financial
Management System (UFMS). Number range CHAPTERThe UFMS will allow the
DOJ to streamline and standardize business processes and procedures
across all components, providing secure, accurate, timely, and useful
financial and procurement data to program managers across the
Department, and produce component- and Department-level financial
statements.

**Summary**

*[Continuation of FY 2006 Key Projects and Programs:]{.underline}*

The JIST account in FY 2008 supports the continued development and
implementation of the Law Enforcement Information Sharing Program
(LEISP), Litigation Case Management Systems (LCMS), Secure
Communications Initiative which has been renamed as ***Secure Identity
Management & Communications** (SIMC)*, Unified Financial Management
System (UFMS), and limited deployment and extension of the Justice
Consolidated Office Network (JCON). The LEISP continues to be a
Department priority. FY 2008 JIST funds support Department level
management of this effort. However, to eliminate unnecessary
administrative transfers of funds, FY 2008 funding for the National Data
Exchange (N-DEX) and Regional Data Exchange (R-DEX) programs is being
budgeted for under the FBI, which serves as the project manager for both
systems.

The FY 2008 JIST budget represents a transition period. Major
development efforts are starting for several projects, including,
Logical Access Control System (SIMC-PKI) and Directory Services (JCON),
that have been in the planning and requirements phase in prior years.
Several projects such as LCMS, UFMS, and Enterprise Directory and
Messaging (EDM-JCON), are at critical stages in the program life cycle
and require significant funding commitments to ensure they are
effectively developed and implemented to meet the Department's business
objectives and mission.

**Linkage to Strategic Goals**

Several aspects of the JIST budget are directly related to the primary
DOJ strategic goal: Protecting America from the threat of terrorism.

The JIST budget will provide overall mission support to enable the
achievement of all DOJ strategic goals. JIST will provide for ongoing
infrastructure investments including JCON and Secure Identity Management
and Communications. The JCON Program is a mature infrastructure that
provides a reliable and robust common office automation platform upon
which 16 of the DOJ litigating, management, and law enforcement
components operate their mission-critical applications. JIST funding
will be used to expand the shared service infrastructure, and to upgrade
component systems that have passed the end of their life cycle.

The Secure Identity Management and Communications program will seek to
develop a Department-wide Enterprise Directory that will be the basis
for secure information sharing through secure communications.

These and other infrastructure investments will enable the achievement
of all DOJ strategic goals.

1.  Program Description

JIST provides for the performance of the certain Departmental
responsibilities assigned to the CIO by the Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996,
including the implementation of a capital planning and investment
control process, the development and maintenance of an information
technology architecture, the establishment of IT performance measures,
IT security programs, and the development strategies for improving
information resources management capabilities. In addition, it provides
for IT investments that can be most effectively and efficiently
designed, engineered, deployed, and implemented through corporate
direction.

The Law Enforcement Information Sharing Program (LEISP) is aimed at
transforming the way DOJ shares law enforcement information with its
local, state, tribal and federal partners. LEISP is intended to support
multi-jurisdictional, multi-directional relationships and to promote a
cultural change within DOJ in the practice of information sharing. LEISP
is a broad-reaching program, not a new information system. In order to
achieve its vision of a \"need to share\" culture rather than \"need to
know,\" LEISP will:

-   Leverage existing system capabilities, architectural components, and
    business services where plausible;

-   Realign other DOJ initiatives where required in order to ensure that
    every system being built focuses on information sharing
    capabilities;

-   Redirect the management and execution of projects where performance
    failures or weaknesses have been identified;

-   Ensure that scarce resources are directed at the most important
    strategic goals of the agency; and

-   Result in the development of a single enterprise-wide information
    sharing architecture for the Department.

The Law Enforcement Information Sharing Program is the critical DOJ-wide
initiative to facilitate the sharing of what law enforcement knows about
terrorism, criminal activity and threats to public safety. LEISP will
help to implement the information technology tools needed to facilitate
timely, appropriate, and secure sharing of information across the law
enforcement community and will coordinate federal information sharing
initiatives with those ongoing at state, tribal, and local law
enforcement agencies.

JIST is primary funding source for corporate investments in secure
communications. Interconnected information technology systems and
networks are critical to achieving the Department\'s mission. However,
this widespread interconnectivity also poses new risks. Our growing
dependency on these systems for law enforcement and national security
purposes has increased the potential damage resulting from malicious
attacks that undermine and disrupt services, or expose sensitive
information to misuse. Protecting our IT systems and networks, and
safeguarding the information they store, process, and transmit, is a
cornerstone of the Department\'s IT strategy. Information security is an
indispensable function and a prerequisite to meeting mission goals. To
these ends, JIST provides for investments in a Public Key Infrastructure
(PKI) and in an enterprise-wide infrastructure for the transmission of
classified information. The investment in PKI will enable secure
communications and information sharing across component organizational
boundaries, provide a strong department-wide authentication mechanism,
support the government-wide E-Authentication initiative, and establish a
framework for communications and sharing with other federal, state and
local agencies. The investment in a classified infrastructure will
connect DOJ users with the Department of Defense (DoD) Secret Internet
Protocol Routing Network (SIPRNet)[^2] and Joint Worldwide Intelligence
Communications System (JWICS)[^3], and provide component users with the
capability to share information and collaborate with external agencies
that have related responsibilities for defending America against the
threat of terrorism and enforcing federal criminal laws.

Similarly, a corporate investment in a common litigation case management
solution financed by JIST will yield long-term cost savings through the
reduction of redundant investments and improvements in operational
efficiencies, resulting in enhanced support of the Department's mission
and strategic goals. Joint procurement of solutions will present
opportunities to save through economies of scale. By procuring solutions
for a larger user base, the unit cost per user will decrease.
Additionally, components using the same systems will be able to leverage
each other's expertise and system support resources. Common solutions,
in conjunction with data standards, also set the stage for the second
category of benefits, operational efficiency improvements. Improved
operational efficiency will be achieved through greater information
sharing. By implementing common data elements and applying automated
tools to share information, agents, attorneys, and other staff will have
access to more information, more quickly and easily. The automated
information sharing tools will be designed to eliminate time spent on
retrieving and validating information not resident in the requestor's
systems, and duplicative data entry, leading to more efficient
litigation activities and more effective litigation results. The
implementation of common standards for identifying and processing
litigation will enable the Attorney General to manage and deploy the
Department's legal staff and caseload more effectively.

JIST also supports continuing investments in established, successful
systems such as JCON and JABS. JCON is a reliable, secure office
automation system using commercial-off-the-shelf products that allows
DOJ attorneys, law enforcement officials, and managers the immediate
ability to exchange all electronic data within and between components.
By providing for the maintenance of the JCON Standard Architecture,
centralized acquisition management, a standardized system development
and implementation methodology, configuration management, and financing
for new system deployments, JIST ensures interoperability and
information sharing among JCON components and their business partners,
*e.g.*, courts, other components, and federal agencies. JABS is a
successful information sharing system that has automated the booking
process, eliminating redundant, successive booking, and established a
federal offender tracking system. It provides a \"front end\" to the
FBI\'s Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System (IAFIS) by
providing an automated process for the collection and transmission of
fingerprint, photographic, and biographical data. In support of JABS,
JIST resources operate and maintain the Core JABS data repositories,
maintain the Automated Booking Station (ABS) software/hardware already
deployed by the participating components, and support the booking
station equipment refreshment program.

JIST also supports the Unified Financial Management System. The goal of
the UFMS Program is to improve the Department's financial management
performance by providing the Components with an enterprise-wide
Financial Management System and standard processes that enable effective
management of financial resources in support of the Department's
mission, objectives, and strategic goals.

UFMS will provide:

-   Information for managers at all levels to make sound business
    decisions for their assigned areas of responsibility;

-   Opportunities for improved efficiency from standardized business
    practices;

-   Enhanced system security and financial accountability; and

-   Support to Government-wide financial and procurement management
    initiatives.

When the "Percentage of users operating under JCON technology" measure
was initially projected in 2006, the ATR and EOIR PC installations were
to start by the 3rd quarter assuming the DOJ hardware BPA was awarded
and in use. The BPA was delayed so the ATR and EOIR installations have
been postponed until the second quarter 2007 and thus the FY 2006 target
was not met.

**3. Performance, Resources, and Strategies**

a.  Performance Plan and Report for Outcomes

Justice Information Sharing Technology consolidates certain IT resources
so that the CIO can more effectively coordinate DOJ IT investments and
directly finance certain infrastructure improvements.

***Oversight of these resources and key programs*** is critical to their
success and to ensuring outcomes that support the Department's mission.

As part of the FY 2006 JIST Appropriation, the Department has
established a Department IT Investment Review Board (DIRB). The
membership of the DIRB is composed of Department of Justice (DOJ)
executive officers and is augmented by non-voting DOJ representatives
and component members. The Deputy Attorney General (DAG) chairs the
board and the CIO serves as vice chair. The DIRB is composed primarily
of members with IT subject matter and financial management expertise,
thereby providing complementary perspectives on the best use of
investment resources to improve the management of the Department and
fulfill its mission.

The DIRB provides the highest level of investment oversight as part of
the Department's overall IT investment management process. The
Department's IT investments are vetted annually through the budget
submission process and in conjunction with each component's Information
Technology Investment Management (ITIM) process. Of the hundreds of
projects that are funded annually across the Department, approximately a
dozen are selected each year for DIRB review based on the size of their
budget and/or their strategic importance to the mission of the
Department. The DIRB's principal functions in fulfilling its
decision-making responsibilities are to:

-   ensure compliance with the Clinger-Cohen Act and all other
    applicable laws, rules, and regulations regarding information
    resources management;

-   monitor the Department's most important IT investments throughout
    their project lifecycle to ensure goals are met and the expected
    returns on investment are achieved;

-   ensure each project under review has established effective budget,
    schedule, operational, performance, and security metrics that
    support the achievement of key project milestones;

-   review the recommendations and issues raised by the components' IT
    investment management ITIM process;

-   review annually each component's IT investment portfolio, including
    business cases for new investments, to inform departmental IT
    portfolio decisions;

-   develop and implement decision-making processes that are consistent
    with the purposes of the DIRB, and with applicable Congressional and
    OMB guidelines for selection, monitoring, and evaluation of
    information system investments (these processes shall be designed to
    ensure that the DIRB's decisions are consistent, valid, and
    actionable, support the Department's business needs and processes,
    align with the Department's strategic goals and objectives, comply
    with enterprise architecture, and consider the delivery of a
    modernized IT infrastructure and efficient, effective services as a
    driving goal); and

-   establish a communications plan that conveys DIRB actions and
    progress against the Department's identified process and goals.

In addition to the DIRB, the Department has established an IT Dashboard
that allows management to review various aspects of major initiatives
across the Department. Not all projects can be reviewed by the DIRB and
the Dashboard is considered another oversight tool. The Dashboard
includes Earned Value Management System (EVMS) reporting to ensure
projects are evaluated against acceptable variances for scope, schedule
and costs. Risk analysis and project funding information are also
available in this tool. This allows the Department's CIO and senior
management team to have access to project information via the web.

b\. Strategies to Accomplish Outcomes

Specific, mission critical IT infrastructure investments are designed,
engineered, and deployed with JIST resources.

-   LEISP creates the core law enforcement information sharing services
    that will allow information to be routinely exchanged between
    agencies and their systems.

    1.  Integrate several existing or newly initiated DOJ funded
        information sharing systems.

    2.  Direct the integration and support the timely completion of
        ongoing projects by infusing project coordination guidance,
        technology direction, and project oversight from the Office of
        the CIO.

    3.  Provide access to other federal, state and local agency
        communications infrastructure to exchange law enforcement
        information. This will be achieved by connecting (or enhancing
        existing connections) between DOJ networks (JUTNET, CJIS WAN,
        LEO) and the networks of other federal partners (DHS), as well
        as selected state/local networks such as the National Law
        Enforcement Telecommunications System (NLETS) and the Regional
        Information Sharing System (RISS).

-   Develop and implement an electronic authentication system to allow
    authorized users from other federal, tribal, state, and local law
    enforcement agencies to access DOJ information from the core LEISP
    services. The electronic authentication system is necessary to
    identify with a high level of confidence the individuals who are
    accessing DOJ through the core LEISP services. Positive electronic
    identification ensures that data is accessed only by authorized
    agents /officers, and also is necessary to allow DOJ to track and
    audit who accessed DOJ law enforcement data that includes personally
    identifiable information, a requirement of the Privacy Act. The
    LEISP intends to leverage the DOJ Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)
    program to achieve this objective.

-   Connect select data sources from other federal law enforcement
    agencies (e.g., DHS) to the core LEISP services. To achieve this
    objective requires the OCIO to develop and implement one or more
    data source adapters similar to those discussed above for DOJ
    component data sources.

-   Complete negotiation of standard policies and protocols that will
    govern the access and use of DOJ information by law enforcement
    partners. These policies and procedures will address issues such as
    the need for law enforcement partners to coordinate their
    investigative activities with DOJ components from which they receive
    shared information.

-   The Litigation Case Management System (LCMS) is a new initiative
    modeled on the success of JCON and JABS. Through the availability of
    a centrally managed fund and corporately controlled planning,
    engineering, acquisition, and deployment, the Department will
    improve operational efficiency through greater information sharing.
    By implementing common data elements and applying automated tools to
    share information, agents, attorneys, and other staff will have
    access to more information, more quickly and easily. Further, the
    implementation of common standards for identifying and processing
    litigation will enable the Attorney General to manage and deploy the
    Department's legal staff and caseload more effectively.

-   The Justice Consolidated Office Network (JCON) Program is a mature
    infrastructure program that provides a reliable and robust common
    office automation platform upon which 16 of the DOJ litigating,
    management, and law enforcement components operate their
    mission-critical applications. JCON centrally funds and manages the
    planning, acquisition, and implementation of a
    commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) product-based office automation
    solution for participating components across the Department.

-   The Secure Identity Management & Communications (SIMC) program
    provides additional resources to fund the construction of PKI,
    secure desktop, security, and other shared services to manage
    identities at DOJ. These services are imperative for DOJ to be able
    to address information sharing and agency interoperability
    requirements of the National Security Division (NSD), Office of the
    Director of National Intelligence (DNI), Information Sharing Council
    (ISC) and the many Task Forces in which DOJ users participate; and
    moreover, will enable agency interoperability at the Sensitive but
    Unclassified (SBU) level where required. Consistent, DOJ-wide
    solutions for Secure Identity Management & Communication (SIMC) at
    multiple clearance levels within the department will allow DOJ to
    more securely provision, manage, and authorize access to critical
    mission resources for our employees. In coordination with the JCON
    initiative this investment will also provide the framework and
    infrastructure to support the government-wide Identity Management
    requirements included in HSPD #12.

-   The Joint Automated Booking System (JABS) is a nationwide system
    that has automated the booking process for DOJ law enforcement
    agencies. It has also become an effective offender tracking system
    by allowing participating agencies to share information.
    Additionally, JABS provides the Department\'s \"front end\" to the
    FBI\'s Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System
    (IAFIS) by providing an automated process for the collection and
    transmission of fingerprint, photographic, and biographical data. As
    with JCON, the availability of a centrally managed fund to provide
    for the planning, acquisition and deployment of the system, has been
    an essential foundation to its success.
