Engage through: IN.gov/IDP Goal to empower collaboration among government, non-profit and private sector entities to drive positive change in key challenges impacting Hoosiers |
||
| Overview | • IDP is an enhancement to the State of Indiana’s Management Performance Hub (MPH), which provides data analytics solutions tailored to address management and policy questions enabling improved outcomes for Hoosiers. Formed in partnership with Indiana University (IU), this enhancement expands MPH’s mission by creating a secure, replicable, and sustainable framework that helps organizations successfully partner to maximize holistic solutions and minimize duplication of efforts through sharing and viewing common data. Another benefit is the creation of better visualizations of organizations’ service networks. • Current focus areas include the opioid epidemic, improving education and workforce development, and diabetes research. The partnership serves these vital community needs by developing an integrated, scalable and collaborative decision-driving framework designed to increase the availability and utility of existing data among participating partners. |

Community Impact
|
• Enhanced ability to link organizational data across various data sets (IBRC/Polis) • Enhanced ability to link individuals across various data sets (MPH) • External entities can share PII to MPH. MPH can link to those individuals to state data and share information back in an aggregate fashion, while ensuring security privacy are held to the fullest. This is primarily used for program evaluation (e.g., are workforce programs truly improving wages) • Enhanced Research Environment available to improve analysis of more sensitive data sets in a secure environment • IDP Portal (Teams and Ecosystem Map) available to improve awareness of data community partners and create a forum for communication |
|
| Future Focus Areas | • Continued growth of the partnership leveraging assets that are available at the participating organizations • Opioid related projects were successful based on state data assets being leveraged along with SAVI data through the Polis Center • Education/Workforce projects were successful based on leveraging state longitudinal record between K-12, higher ed, and workforce along with key census and community related assets from IBRC • Future initiatives will look to leverage the strengths of the partners, and utilize the IDP platform to highlight/promote key projects • Diabetes focused research leveraging the multiple stakeholder dataset to include state data |
|
| Resources | • IDP Portal is an online platform for IDP Partners where they can discover projects and datasets of interest and connect with organizations who are willing to collaborate on projects by sharing data • Website (IN.gov/IDP) highlights initial cluster mapping projects that were created through this initiative |
