Contract Control Number: TECHS - 201312032
Vendor/Contractor Name (including any “DBA”): Securus Technologies Inc
Type and Scope of services to be performed:
This inmate phone contract provides for phone services to inmates and their families at the Denver County Jail and Downtown Detention Center. Securus collects payment from inmates and/or others for usage of the installed inmate calling system, except for prepaid calling cards and inmate debit accounts.
This amendment will change the cost of inmate phone calls from a flat rate of $2.60 to .086 cents per minute, with a maximum of $2.60. In offering competitive rates for communication by inmates during their stays, the Denver Sheriff Department intends to support increased interaction to their families and friends. This has shown to decrease rates of recidivism and improve reentry outcomes.
This is a revenue contract. This contract also reduces the commission to the City from $52,000 to $30,000 on a monthly basis.
