The purpose of this RFP is to solicit proposals for the procurement of a technically efficient integrated II telephone system, including wall mounted and wireless devices. This system will operate and control all II telephones at the MCJ and the MSA, as well as during any renovations or additions to those facilities, and any new jail facilities built during the contract period. The II telephone system must be designed to be fully integrated within the existing needs and capability of the present facilities and provide call processing for the II environment. It must have the capability to be custom designed to serve each particular facility. While the parameters given in this RFP reflect the MCSO’s best estimate of these requirements, Respondents are encouraged to propose the most advanced technical design system to ensure quality, guard against fraud, and create on-site control to ensure resistance of physical abuse. Each Respondent must assume full responsibility for the procurement, installation, and performance of the complete telephone system, and accept responsibility for and verify requirements at individual station locations. Proposals for any special features, software, or other electronic/technical options the respondent wishes to be considered by the MCSO should be included in a separate section of the proposal. Each special feature or software should be detailed and priced out separately.
