About this file

This document is a Request for Proposals (RFP) response submission package from Security Partners LLC to the Mississippi Department of Corrections (MDOC) and Wilkinson County Industrial Development Authority for the operation of Wilkinson County Correctional Facility (WCCF) located in Woodville, Mississippi. The RFP seeks a qualified private facility operator to manage the 97-acre facility, which currently houses approximately 920 inmates across minimum, medium, and closed custody levels. Security Partners proposes comprehensive facility operations management including personnel management, systems oversight, and inmate program implementation, with all personnel, systems, and programs to be fully operational within 180 days of contract execution. The optional facility tour occurred on February 25, 2026, with registration required by February 20, 2026. Proposals were due by 2:00 p.m. CST on March 25, 2026, to MDOC's Central Office in Jackson. The contract term is three years from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2029, with two optional one-year renewal periods not to exceed five years total. Amendment #6 established an anticipated Notice of Intent to Award on May 18, 2026, and Amendment #7 revised this timeline to May 28, 2026, with a Notice of Contract Award Announcement anticipated on June 10, 2026.

Security Partners LLC submitted a cost proposal with a per-inmate per-diem rate of $58.50 daily, calculated from operating costs including security personnel ($30.00), non-security personnel ($5.00), food ($2.50), utilities ($16.00), and other costs ($5.00), resulting in a total annual proposed price of $19,644,300.00 based on the actual number of inmates housed multiplied by 365 days. The RFP evaluation criteria allocate 35 points to price, 31 points to technical factors, and 34 points to management factors, for a total of 100 points. Proposed costs must provide a minimum 10 percent cost savings compared to state operation while maintaining the same level and quality of service as required by Mississippi Code Annotated 47-5-1211. Security Partners must comply with American Correctional Association Standards and maintain ACA accreditation, with potential monetary offsets ranging from 0.5 percent to 1.0 percent of daily inmate population multiplied by the per-diem rate for late, incomplete, or inaccurate reports. Required insurance includes $10,000,000 in general liability and $500,000 in motor vehicle liability, with MDOC and the State of Mississippi listed as additional insureds. The contractor assumes responsibility for facility maintenance up to $150,000 per incident, with the Authority bearing costs for repairs exceeding that threshold. Security Partners' managing partner, Jack M. Varner III, has been involved in correctional facility management since 1999, and the company currently operates two correctional facilities in Morehouse Parish, Louisiana.
