CaseInfo - Criminal Case Management Software
Product Information Sheet
Case Management
CaseInfo's approach to case management is
the Case Explorer, a visual representation of a CID division's caseload.
Each investigative unit is displayed using a "tree view".
Under each investigative unit appears investigators assigned to the
unit and their cases. The Case Explorer gives supervisors, commanders
and investigators a "bird's eye view" of their unit's current
caseload and the status of each case, enabling them to quickly drill
down to the details with a few mouse clicks.
Investigative Support
CaseInfo is much more than just a case management
system. It incorporates unique investigative support features designed
to help investigators solve cases by discovering links and tie-ins
they may not otherwise know about.
CaseInfo offers a "To Do" list showing
investigative tasks needed to be completed for a case. The task
list is shown at logon and tasks are marked completed as the investigation
proceeds.
CaseInfo's Microsoft Word document integration
allows investigators to complete and manage investigation reports
under a case.
When any subject, vehicle, address, phone
number, or business is entered into CaseInfo, the user is immediately
notified of any possible matches to information already in the system.
Sophisticated Linking
Linking is inherent in CaseInfo's design.
Information entered into CaseInfo is easily and, in many cases, automatically,
linked as appropriate. Links, and links via links, are instantly displayed
as information is searched and accessed throughout the system. CaseInfo's
"tree views" are designed to show relationships between
information at a glance.
Major Case Features
CaseInfo provides powerful support for Major
Cases. Multiple investigators jointly contribute investigative leads
to a single case. As leads come in, CaseInfo's innovative interface
conveys linked information quickly. This allows investigators assigned
to a major case to discover relationships among information that they
otherwise may not have known about.
CI Technologies is uniquely qualified
to provide major case support - the company got its start by helping
create the software used by the Gainesville, Florida student murders
task force in 1990. The companies first product, the original CaseInfo,
was a Major Case system. CaseInfo for Windows' Major Case modules
fill the needs of such investigations while still being an integrated
part of the overall system.
Microsoft
Word/Corel WordPerfect Integration
With CaseInfo, investigators can work with
and manage Microsoft Word or Corel WordPerfect documents
without leaving CaseInfo. As an investigator views an incident within
CaseInfo, all associated Word documents are displayed within the
incident.
Additionally, Microsoft Word templates are supported. Forms
can be created one-time as Microsoft Word templates and reused
over and over. More importantly, as forms are pulled up, CaseInfo
automatically fills them out, saving time and preventing duplication
of work.
Access/Security
Controls
CaseInfo has several layers of access/security
controls, insuring that information contained in CaseInfo is visible
on a "need-to-know" basis. Each CaseInfo user is assigned
"permissions" defining the information they can access
and the read/write settings for each user.
In addition, CaseInfo's "Case Lockout"
feature allows an investigator or group of investigators to lock
out access to a sensitive case from all other CaseInfo users. At
a later time the case can be unlocked allowing other users the ability
to access the valuable information pertaining to the case.
Digital Imaging
CaseInfo's powerful digital imaging feature allows the linking of
images to cases, case events, subjects, vehicles, businesses and
addresses. Images are obtained directly within CaseInfo using a
scanner or digital camera. CaseInfo also allows for the linking
of images from exisiting image files. Mug shots, scanned documents,
and evidence photographs are just some of the options available.
Search Capabilities
CaseInfo offers "Fast Find" and "Query Builders"
throughout to easily search any data field or combination of data
fields. The ability to conduct a "sounds" like and partial
text search is supported, as is the search of all narratives that
contain a word or phrase.
The simplicity of CaseInfo's search capabilities
is a key component to CaseInfo's power.
