SQL Tools Case Study

Three years ago, the South Carolina Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) made a critical decision: Faced with the limitations of its 18-year-old mainframe system hard-wired to 43 county offices, the DJJ began using SQL Server tools to develop a web-based system for tracking juvenile offenders.

Armed with a three-year, $1.8 million grant from the Federal government, the DJJ first shifted responsibility for computer technology from the Division of the State Chief Information Officer to a newly formed IT group.
