The Office of Court Administration (OCA) and the Department of Information Resources (DIR) reviewed case management software to develop contracts for local government to acquire case management software. The criteria used to evaluate case management software is based on national standards. Reviews were conducted in April 2003 (Criteria/Review Results) and again in October 2004 (Criteria/Review Results).
Case Management Software Interfaces
OCA encourages case management software vendors to develop interfaces that improve efficiencies for the trial courts of Texas by streamlining communications between systems. The interfaces OCA tracks are:
- Judicial Council monthly report to OCA (Instructions)
- eFiling for County and District courts (Contact Texas.gov for instructions)
- TxDPS Electronic Disposition Report (EDR) to the Computerized Criminal History (CCH) files (Contact DPS for instructions)

Column Heading Descriptions
CMS Review Date: This refers to the date OCA reviewed the software against a set of case management software criteria. The first review was in April 2003 and the second in October 2004. These reviews led to recommendations concerning DIR statewide contracts for case management software.
Judicial Council Monthly Report to OCA: A check mark in this column indicates that the software possesses the capacity to provide electronic transfer of the Judicial Council Monthly Report to OCA.
eFiling: A check mark in this column indicates that the software is enabled to electronically receive eFiling documents through Texas.gov. OCA cannot test and certify that this interface is in place. Vendors must work with BearingPoint directly to test their eFiling interfaces. Once the interface is confirmed by Texas.gov, OCA can include this interface information on our chart.
TxDPS EDR: A check mark in this column indicates that the software has coordinated with the Texas Department of Public Safety (TxDPS) to electronically send electronic disposition reports to their computerized criminal history database. OCA cannot test and certify that this interface is in place. Vendors must work with TxDPS directly to test the interface. Once the interface is confirmed by TxDPS, OCA can include this interface information on our chart.
