VA <br />TECHNICAL APPROACH <br />This section presents the Human Services Research and Design Laboratory's <br />(HSL) proposed technical approach to the development of specifications for Orange <br />County's Master Client Index File (MCIF). Our approach proposes the development of a <br />system which will incorporate a level of confidentiality necessary for the Human <br />Services Departments within Orange County while also meeting the departments' <br />aggregate needs. <br />Our proposed technical approach is organized into threes major phases: <br />Assessment, Design, and $erg, The Assessment Phase will include three tasks. The <br />first task will involve the development and completion of an assessment protocol to be <br />completed by each department potentially involved in the new MCIF. The next task will <br />be to meet with key personnel within the Data Processing Department and each of the <br />eleven Human Service Departments involved in the system. The third task will be to <br />provide a progress report to the Human Services Management Team to update them on <br />the Assessment Phase. <br />The second phase, Design, includes four tasks. The fast of these tasks will be to <br />evaluate the hardware needs for a networked system. The fifth task includes the <br />evaluation of software components needed in the MCIF. The sixth task will involve <br />pricing both the hardware and software needs of the system. The seventh task will <br />involve a second progress report to the Human Services Management Team to inform the <br />Team of the outcomes of the Design Phase. <br />...............
