The mission of the PPS is to carry out probation and pretrial service functions within the U.S. district courts. The PPS goal is to assist the federal courts in the fair administration of justice and protection of the community, while fostering long-term positive change in individuals under supervision.
Under the terms of the BPA, AFS will help the AOUSC design, integrate, deploy and support a new secure cloud-based client case-management system on a software-as-a-service platform. The goal of the system is to help AOUSC deliver seamless, streamlined outcome-driven workflows and enable the 9,000 PPS employees to perform their mission anywhere within the United States and its territories.
