Oct. 3, 2011 - PRLog -- DENVER, Colorado (October 3, 2011) – URL Integration, an IT consulting company providing system integration services to courts, justice, and public safety agencies, announces the addition of Bob Roper – former Chief Information Officer for the Colorado Judicial Department – as Director of Consulting Practices. In this new role, Bob will oversee URL’s portfolio of consulting services and continue to influence and increase the visibility of workflow integration efforts – from helping URL’s clients reengineer business processes to identifying potential revenue and cost savings opportunities.

Prior to joining URL, Roper spent more than 19 years as Chief Information Officer for the Colorado Judicial Department. He was instrumental in the successful design and implementation of numerous statewide information sharing projects, including domestic, probate, water, and civil eFiling; piloting criminal e-filing; online payment and court appointed counsel systems; court, probation, jury, and financial case management systems; and a series of critical data exchange projects between the Judicial Department and other partnering agencies. Previous to the Colorado Judicial Department, Roper spent more than nine years with the National Center for State Courts (NCSC), directing Phase III of the Institute for Court Management (ICM) and the Court Statistics and Information Management program.

“We are very excited to have Bob Roper leading URL’s consulting practices into its next era of growth,” says Dave Usery, URL's President and CEO. “Roper is the exact combination of a seasoned technology executive and savvy, real-world leader of information sharing initiatives. He is admired in the justice world for his vision in applying technology to extract, use, and share information in a more sophisticated way in order to optimize business processes. Roper is also known for his strong client relations and firm understanding of the challenges the justice enterprise faces.”

Bob Roper said, “Although I am retiring from almost twenty years as the CIO for the Colorado Courts, I am excited about joining an organization like URL and working alongside the industry’s most talented professionals, who share the same design and software development strategies and priorities that I’ve adhered to for the last thirty years while working with the courts.”

Throughout his career, Roper has consulted and presented to both national and international audiences and associations on various integrated justice system topics. For three terms, Roper served as founding Chairperson of the recently formed Court Information Technology Officers Consortium (CITOC) sponsored by the Conference of State Court Administrators and the National Association for Court Management. Roper has also served on referee panels and editorial boards for the National Science Foundation (NSF) and many other entities. He also served on the advisory board for SEARCH’s courts program.
