Powering Software Solutions for the Global Justice Community

At Journal Technologies, our vision extends beyond technology – we focus on fostering effective and efficient justice processes. Our eSeries Framework is a testament to this commitment, combining advanced core technology with domain-specific innovation.

eSeries Framework is the underlying code base comprised of functional modules and toolkits that provide the building blocks from which our primary product offerings are based. Customers receive hundreds of thousands of R&D and productization hours as part of licensing an eSeries Framework-based product.

The eSeries Advantage

These marketed product solutions are carefully crafted configurations of our eSeries Framework intellectual property foundation, designed to support the specific business processes and functions of your sector within the justice landscape.

Comprehensive Capabilities

Core eSeries Framework delivers an unrivalled array of capabilities, developed in response to client requirements over decades of our work in the justice sector. From document management and database organization to workflow, forms, and integration with third-party systems, plus more domain-specialized capabilities, eSeries Framework ensures that you’re equipped with required core capabilities to meet an enormous array of requirements – and do so with profound flexibility.

Sector-Specific Capabilities: Extending the core foundation, eSeries Framework includes advanced sets of features tailored for courts, prosecution, defense, and supervision verticals. For example, prosecutors and/or defenders can leverage targeted features like conflict-of-interest checking, time & expense management, asset forfeiture, discovery, and subpoena management to maximize effectiveness within your sector. If required by another agency type and inclusion makes sense over time, the capabilities of related eSeries Framework-based solutions are readily available.

Flexibility Meets Functionality

Our Framework is the result of a strong belief: that our clients are best served by technology that is flexible enough to accommodate their unique requirements. In every project journey, we select a baseline configuration most suited to your needs, then we custom configure it to meet your specific requirements.

There are also trade-offs associated with some types of system customization; we’re now increasingly focused on working with clients to ensure that the final solutions strike an optimal balance between delivering what customers need and ensuring that we do so without creating future issues at upgrade time that can arise from over-customization.
