Sheriff <br /> <br />January 8, 2006 <br /> <br />f.",.: ~"~l' ....n <br />'~'wrt:iVL:,J<.J <br /> <br />Robyn Sorum, Portfolio Commissioner <br />Cass County Commission <br />PO Box 2806 <br />Fargo, ND 58108 <br /> <br />JAN 2007 <br /> <br />:~ COUNT'f CO!\,'\~I":;, <br /> <br />RE: Contract with Correctional Computer of Wisconsin <br /> <br />Commissioner Sorum: <br /> <br />The Cass County Jail has been researching and evaluating software for inmate accounts and jail <br />commissary this past year and Major Glenn Ellingsberg has recommended that Cass County enter <br />into a contract with Correctional Computer of Wisconsin at a cost of $11,650.00. Total cost of <br />implementation will be approximately $20,000 when hardware consisting of an optical scanner and <br />bar code readers are purchased. The software and hardware will be paid for through commissary <br />funds as this directly benefits the inmates and will require no general levy funds. <br /> <br />Currently the jail does not have a software package for jail commissary which makes inventory <br />control and accountability more difficult and time consuming than it should. Although the jail still <br />utilizes an outside vendor for inmate snacks and drinks, hygiene items and some over the counter <br />medications are provided by the county. In order to fully comply with statute, a more complete <br />accountability of delivery is required. This software will provide that accountability as well as <br />inventory control, manage inmate charges, and calculate sales tax when required. The Cass County <br />Jail processes over $200,000.00 dollars in commissary sales per year. The proposed software will also <br />handle the day to day accountability of inmate accounts. <br /> <br />I would suggest the following proposed motion. <br /> <br />Move to authorize the Chair to sign the contract with Correctional Computer of Wisconsin <br />for Jail Inmate Accounts & Commissary Software. <br /> <br />Should you have any questions, please contact me or Major Glenn Ellingsberg. <br /> <br />~SP::>' ~ <br />~~~ <br /> <br />Sheriff <br /> <br />Enclosure/l <br /> <br />Cass County Sheriff <br />211 9 St. S. <br />PO Box 488 <br />Fargo, NO 58107-0488 <br />Phone: 701-241-5800 <br />Fax: 701-241-5805 <br /> <br />Cass County Jail <br />450 34 St. S. <br />Fargo, NO 58103-2229 <br />Phone: 701-271-2900 <br />Fax: 701-271-2967 <br /> <br />Cass County Detention <br />10193 Ave. S. <br />PO Box 2806 <br />Fargo, NO 58108-2806 <br />Phone; 701-241-5S45 <br />Fax: 701-241-5938 <br />
