The Missouri Department of Corrections (DOC) requires continued access to the inmate tablets and media services currently being used within DOC facilities, provided by Securus Technologies LLC during the bid process for replacement of DOC’s communications contract, which includes a replacement solution for DOC’s inmate tablets and media services. CT222617001 is being amended to add a one-year renewal period to the contract to allow time to complete the bid process and to add music and games subscription as a la carte media options. Securus Technologies LLC is the only provider of the tablet hardware and software system that is fully interfaced and integrated with the network and kiosk systems and associated software and account platforms that are currently deployed at Missouri DOC facilities. As a result, this represents a proprietary requirement that meets the criteria as a single feasible source under section 34.044, RSMo and the state is pursuing this amendment via a single feasible source procurement.
