The new system, titled the Justice Connect project, will be aimed at interconnecting key branches of the Justice Department.

These include the Magistrates and Supreme courts as well as Victims Support Services, corrective services and the Tasmanian Prison Service.

Justice Connect will also be interlinked with relevant Tasmania Police, Fire and Ambulance systems.

The call for tenders comes after The Examiner reported last week a Risdon Prison inmate was incorrectly released.

This was the ninth-known incorrectly released inmate in four years.

The new system will opt away from an outdated and paper-based system, which has been known to cause delays throughout the justice system.

Minister for Justice Elise Archer said the new system will support an efficient and connected court and corrections system, enhance efficiencies and improve outcomes through better information sharing.

"The department is aiming to enter into contract negotiations with the preferred provider early in 2020, and roll out the Justice Connect program in stages over a four-year period," Ms Archer said.

"Currently, the justice system relies on multiple outdated and often unconnected IT systems used by the department and courts, as well as many inefficient paper-based practices."

The $24.5 million project's tender process has identified a number of interested software companies at state, national and international levels.
