Technology, tools & Expertise

Software Products

MTS develops, implements, and supports software solutions that facilitate the inter-agency collaboration needed to address mental health- and substance abuse-involved people who encounter the criminal justice system. Our solutions are rooted in evidence-based research and grounded in real-world experience. We specialize in shared workflow-based approaches to managing complex case management successfully before, after, and particularly as an alternative to incarceration.

Systems Analysis and Design

• MTS consultants are available to work with customers to analyze current systems and design high-functioning alternatives that work across organizational boundaries. Our consultants each have decades of experience in fields that include psychiatry, primary care medicine, human services, information technology, database design, medical informatics, veteran services, mental health, substance abuse, state government, and more.
• We work closely with leaders, managers, line workers, and stakeholders to understand the complex web of interaction that exists (or that may not exist) to manage complex cases across the continuum. Then we suggest alternatives that can more effectively enable shared case management.
• Whether it’s state or local government, community mental health agencies or police, the VA or courts, corrections or opioid treatment, we have the cross-disciplinary expertise to design systems that merge technology, people, and best practices across functional workflows.

Toolsets

• MTS incorporates proven tools that work across organizational boundaries to foster collaborative case management. Often, this involves applying tools traditionally reserved for a single domain to an entirely new arena.
• For instance, in Vermont MTS took the Self Sufficiency Matrix (SSM), traditionally used in human services environments, modified it, and applied it to cross-disciplinary use by the State’s Attorney’s office in managing offenders with substance abuse and mental health diagnoses.
• For each client, MTS scans a wide spectrum of tools, and then applies and adapts best-of-breed toolsets to address the challenges in novel ways where traditional have failed.
