What is Jail Management System?

People who have been arrested, charged, or convicted of criminal charges are sentenced to live in jails. In many cases, the number of prisoners in jail is large. Managing the jail, prisoners and the resources for the smooth functioning of the prison is quite complex. The jail system must be run smoothly so that law and order are maintained and the society is safe and secure.

Critical Requirements In Jail Management

Jail Management involves numerous prisoners, security personnel, physical and virtual security, scheduling of jobs, data collection, storage and transmission, and resource allocation and management. Some of the common requirements that jails have amid day-to-day running of the jail and strategic decision making are -

Manage prisoners in the jail

There are various inmates in prison. There are constant move-in and move-out of prisoners. The prison management has to capture and manage physical data, identity information, and biometrics on prisoners. Prisoners have to be assigned to security guards and cells. The prisoners’ daily routine has to be managed. Parameters related to behavior and work done by prisoners such as disciplinary action, products made, work done, etc. have to be managed.

Manage employees of the jail

Working in jail is a tough job. It demands long hours and needs a lot of physical and mental effort on the employees’ part. It is imperative that the jail administration makes the organization a satisfying place to work. The jail administration has to, therefore, manage employees well. It has to keep track of employee information like personal details, training needs, and progress in training, performance ratings, attendance, work hours, etc. It needs to take care of salary, overtime, and other performance incentives.

Manage visitors to the jail premises

Many people - relatives, lawyers, etc. visit the jail premises. Security cannot be compromised. Therefore information such as visiting times, visitor tracking, meeting time, denial, and allowance of visitors for inmates has to be collated, stored, and updated as required. The visitor request and approval process have to be managed.

Manage litigation, security, and compliance

Lawsuits are filed against the jail administration for various reasons such as disciplinary issues, medical care, visitation, etc. The jail is a huge mass of people coming in, visiting, going out, and staying on the premises. Transparency and security are of the utmost importance. Inmates have to be protected too. Therefore jail administration has to comply with many regulations and follow strict procedures. The jail administration has to collate and manage huge volumes of different types of data to handle these aspects. Technology in corrections will benefit the jail administration greatly.
