"Northpointe has been at the forefront in helping the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation implement the COMPAS Risk and Needs Assessment tool into their prison reentry initiatives to help make better decisions and transform lives. Working in close collaboration with Robert Ambroselli, Deputy Director of Parole, and his team, we are helping them take a proactive approach to prison reform."  Dave Wells, Northpointe President and CEO. 

COMPAS Software Suite

The COMPAS Software Suite is a seamless, integrated and web-based software solution for offender assessment, classification and case management. It includes the state-of-the-art COMPAS assessment system, specific to the needs of adults, women, youth and reentry offenders. The COMPAS assessment system is a risk and needs decision support guide for criminal justice practitioners who must make decisions regarding community placement, supervision, treatment and case-management. The COMPAS assessment tools are used across the criminal justice system including applications in pre-trial, courts, probation, institutions, parole, and community corrections. The COMPAS Software Suite also includes comprehensive case management modules to effectively manage probation, parole, community corrections, drug and mental health court caseloads. We will soon be adding Northpointe’s nationally recognized Decision Tree Objective Inmate Classification System which manages all aspects of a jail’s inmate classification operations.

Completely scalable from agencies with just a few staff to entire corrections systems with thousands of users – the COMPAS Software Suite is the right solution for your agency.
