About this file

This document is a rate and equipment schedule for the Dane County Jail's resident communication services in Wisconsin, outlining current pricing structures and infrastructure locations. The County seeks to procure Digital Resident Telephone, Tablet, and Video Visitation System & Services through an RFP process managed by the Dane County Purchasing Division. The current environment includes 822 residents housed across multiple facility locations with 150 phones, 36 visitation stations, and 157 NFC units distributed throughout the Public Safety Building (PSB) and Correctional Center Building (CCB). Equipment is located across 22 distinct areas including housing pods, visitation areas, booking stations, and a courthouse lockup, with varying resident populations ranging from 2 to 114 individuals per location.

Current pricing for resident communications includes content access fees ranging from free to $0.05 per minute depending on profile type, messaging rates of $0.25 per written message or photo attachment, and standardized phone call rates of $0.07 per minute across all call types (local, intraLATA, intrastate, and interstate) with no connection fees. All phone rates comply with Wisconsin's Public Utilities Commission and Federal Communications Commission maximum rate authorizations. The document provides baseline operational data for vendors to evaluate capacity requirements and develop proposals that will replace or enhance the existing communication infrastructure currently serving the jail population.
