Budget estimate

$500,000 – $2,000,000

No specific contract value is disclosed. Similar county‑wide inmate communications contracts typically range from a few hundred thousand dollars to a few million dollars annually, depending on inmate population and service scope. Assuming a mid‑size county with several thousand inmates, a reasonable estimate would be roughly $500,000 to $2,000,000 per year. Factors influencing the range include the number of telephone lines/tablets, service usage fees, maintenance obligations, and compliance costs.
