This blog is all about the Regional Justice Information Service (REJIS) located in St. Louis, MO. 
Since this is an introduction, I'll introduce you to REJIS.
REJIS is a local government agency created to “serve the public interest through delivering quality,cost-effective technology services to the justice community and to government and quasi-government agencies.” REJIS’ primary focus is to provide record management services to law enforcement, courts, and corrections agencies at the local, state and federal levels. This includes interfaces to the Missouri State Highway Patrol’s MULES system, the Nat ional Crime Information Center (NCIC), and the NLETS network. REJIS was founded in 1975 under a cooperative agreement between St. Louis County and the City of St. Louis. Our customers are primarily concentrated in the metropolitan St. Louis and southwestern Illinois areas.
On behalf of their client agencies REJIS also provides fee-based services to other governmental agencies and the private sector. Members of The Missouri Bar Association use a service called MoBar Net, members of the private security community may use a service called PS Net and other governmental agencies can use a service called GA Net.
REJIS has approximately 140 employees located at three sites. Most of the staff and equipment is
based at the REJIS building, in the Central West End of St. Louis.
REJIS is a full service IT organization, hosting data center services, developing and publishing law enforcement and government applications, testing and training and offering a full range of support services. Future posts will focus on more of these services in depth.
