 State of Tennessee Recognizes Jacada Project with Excellence Award
The "e-Tomis" application was the result of a massive six-month project to update the Tennessee Offender Management Information System (TOMIS), a mainframe computing system that 6000 correctional agency employees use to track 20,000 state inmates, 50,000 people on probation and parole, and 5,000 people in county jails.
Because of TOMIS’ limitations, it was thought that the only option was a complete replacement of the aging system, which would cost nearly $14 million.
Therefore, according to state officials, since TOMIS was functional and did what it was supposed to do, the department would have to continue using it for another 10 years unless a more cost-effective alternative was found.
