Offender Monitoring System

The Missouri Department of Corrections has issued a Request for Information (RFI) numbered RFI93123708065 seeking technology solutions for an Offender Monitoring System across Clark County and Jefferson City jurisdictions. The RFI, posted on August 22, 2022, with responses due by September 2, 2022 at 2:00 PM CDT, aims to gather comprehensive information about technological solutions that can assist correctional staff in monitoring offenders throughout the day. Specifically, the department is looking for systems capable of conducting head counts, documenting cell checks, and tracking various offender-related activities. Vendors are expected to provide detailed information about their technology's capabilities, features, and potential implementation strategies. The RFI is open to all vendors and can be responded to either electronically through the MissouriBUYS system or via hard copy submission if permitted. The primary point of contact for this RFI is Beth Lambert from the Department of Corrections in Jefferson City, Missouri.

The RFI does not specify any set-aside designations, restrictions on responding organizations, or provide information about incumbent vendors or existing technological infrastructure. No specific budget range or award value is mentioned, as this is purely an information-gathering exercise intended to conduct market research for a potential future procurement. Vendors are responsible for ensuring timely and accurate submission of their responses, with no guarantee of subsequent contract award. The document specifies Free On Board Destination delivery terms, though no actual delivery is required since this is an exploratory RFI. The Missouri Department of Corrections will use the collected information to potentially inform and develop a more formal solicitation for an offender monitoring system in the future, with the goal of enhancing their ability to track and document offender activities more effectively.
