ITSC Core Products
ITSC Website
The ITSC website plays an important role in increasing communication and content sharing between states. The website provides a channel to keep abreast of current IT related issues and needs within the UI community. The website will be the main resource for states to access applications, shared state information and UI Modernization data. ITSC will leverage its partnership with NASWA-CESER to integrate the two unique websites with up to date and accurate information.
The ITSC core product suite including ITSC core applications and tools will be hosted, documented and made available to states through the ITSC.org website.
Project based collaborative workspaces or portals housed on the ITSC website serve as comprehensive online repositories for the project team. Real time, secure communication capabilities provide the opportunity for IT leaders to discuss active projects, the UI program and technical problems and solutions.
eLibrary
The eLibrary is a comprehensive repository of UI modernization documents including RFPs, Strategic Plans, Requirements, Use Cases, Technical Artifacts (e.g., data models, UML design constructs), Source Code and associated business and technical documentation. This searchable eLibrary provides electronic artifacts as well as “Best Practices” and lessons learned for both Tax and Benefits UI Modernization engagements. New features to be added to the eLibrary include technical standards and architecture to support common development and assist consortiums in working together. Bulletin board type services will allow states to communicate and share information more effectively.
Autocoder/OccuCoder
Autocoder/OccuCoder is a software tool supported by the ITSC to provide accurate O*NET occupational coding. The tool can be used in the UI claims filing process to allow UI applicants to self code their work history to assist in the reemployment process. The tool can be incorporated into State or private job bank systems so that job orders can be coded with the appropriate O*Net occupational code. Automated matches of UI applicants to current job orders is one example of a reemployment application that can be automated through the use of this tool.
SUTA Dumping Detection System (SDDS)
SDDS is a web based SQLServer database tool developed for UI Tax staff and attorneys to aid in the analysis of employer UI Tax account information and employee movement across different UI employer accounts.
State Information Data Exchange System - UI SIDES
UI SIDES is a web services system that enables communications and transmission of UI information requests from UI agencies to different size employers including multi- state employers or Third Party Administrators. The current implementation of SIDES supports separation transactions only. Large volume separation transactions are handled through a batch web service and smaller numbers of separations are communicated to and from employers through an Internet Website. Other types of transactions will be added to this infrastructure within the next few years including wage verification.
Interstate Connection Network (ICON)
ICON modernization is a project currently under development to process ICON based transactions through online web services.

The IAS is a web browser based application. It supports the Unemployment Insurance claims adjudication process by automatically gathering adjudication information in a central location, and by providing an organized user interface to help adjudicators review case information, and complete the non-monetary adjudication process in a timely, accurate fashion. IAS exchanges case data with central UI mainframe benefits systems. It also features automated adjudicator and case scheduling.
