This document is a series of contract change notices for Michigan State Contract No. 071B7700057, an indefinite delivery contract between the State of Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB) and Global Tel Link Corporation (GTL).

The contract covers three primary service areas: electronic deposit systems allowing prisoners' friends and family to deposit funds via telephone, internet, kiosk, and walk-up locations nationwide 24/7/365; debit card services for releasing prisoners with no activation fees to the State; and booking and release services for handling cash and card transfers at intake and discharge. GTL is responsible for all hardware, software, installation, maintenance, and repair costs at no expense to MDOC. Pricing is structured by deposit amount and method, with fees ranging from $0.95 to $3.95 per transaction, plus commission amounts payable to MDOC. The contract has been extended through multiple change notices, with the most recent (Change Notice 10, effective August 12, 2025) extending the expiration to October 31, 2026, and increasing the contract value by $6,121,208.66, bringing the estimated aggregate contract value to $13,907,440.66. The contract includes performance-based service level agreements with financial penalties for non-compliance in fund processing, reporting, customer service, and sales commission timelines.
