They are looking for a new case management system. All case management systems are database derived. You put data in, you get data out. All of the legacy Treasury agencies are all looking for, or are developing new case management systems. They reason for this is multi-fold. At one time there were many agencies under Treasury, that now are under different agencies; Customs, ATF, IRS, and USSS are just a few, now these agencies have been re-aligned under other agencies, or have been left orphaned since the creation of DHS. Long before the creation of DHS ant the separation of these agencies a replacement was being sought for their shared case management system/database, TECS, or the Treasury Enforcement Communication System, as TECS is a mainframe based system, and a Windows/GUI based replacement has been sought and in various versions of development since 1999. Now that the Treasury functions have been shot out to the wind, everyone needs something different and all are looking for a system of their own. The shame in this is going to be the loss in shared data. For privacy advocates this is a boon, as there are going to be a dozen individual case management/Databases that don't talk to each other, instead of one, all-powerful program."My agency has it's own internal database for all reports, including investigations. It is an unerring piece of shite. You couldn't find your own ass with both hands in that pile of crap. <img src="/images/smilies/frown.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" data-shortname=":(" /></blockquote>
