MAPLE GROVE, Minn., March 1, 2021 —St. Louis County Sheriff’s Office has partnered with GUARDIAN RFID to roll out its inmate management system that automatically captures a wide range of inmate activities, behavioral observations, inmate movements, court transports, and positive ID headcounts that works with the county’s existing jail management system.
Known as the largest county in Minnesota (6,859.91 sq mi), St. Louis Co. looks forward to expanding and digitally transforming its facility. GUARDIAN RFID will replace the jail’s long-standing paper-based logs and manual forms by implementing the ultra-rugged Android devices called SPARTAN to manage, monitor, and track inmates using Mobile Command, corrections’ most widely deployed mobile application.
The GUARDIAN RFID system will help jail staff collect data faster and more comprehensively than its present manual tools. This includes inmate meal offerings, program attendance, and medication administration records which will help reduce inmate complaints and future litigation while increasing compliance efficiency with Minnesota jail standards. GUARDIAN RFID will also enable staff to share and communicate information faster than ever, thanks to its Cloud-based platform, OnDemand, which interfaces with the county’s current jail management system.
