Abstract

We describe the experience of a sample of US state child welfare agencies currently deciding whether to transition to a new model of information system, now explicitly recommended by the US federal government. The new model is inspired by enterprise-level data intensive thinking and promises to enable states to design systems that complement state business needs and practices, as well as improve case-related and policy decision making.
