Jarrod Bean Brief description of the problem/issue: Viapath Technologies was selected as the vendor to provide phone, video visit, tablet and law library services to Inmates starting January 1St 2024. When the original contract was edited by County attorneys' language was removed that prevented a service from being provided. The service is Viapath's Data IQ package, similar to what the county previously had with Securus. It is an investigative tool; that allows DCS and other investigators to connect inmates through known contacts from connected phone calls, video visits, messages etc. There is no financial impact due to this addendum and only allows Weld County a larger investigative suite to work with. The addendum has reviewed and approved by Byron Howell and approved by our county IT Aleksei Churyk. What options exist for the Board? The board may either approve or deny this addendum. Consequences: If not approved, the County would not be able to provide a full investigative program to internal and external investigators. Impacts: If the Board approves the addendum, Viapath will be able to enable and provide training on their Data IQ suite to investigators. Costs (Current Fiscal Year / Ongoing or Subsequent Fiscal Years): There are no costs to the county as a result of this addendum and the commission rates already in place will remain. Recommendation: It is recommended the board approve this addendum. Viapath has provided satisfactory services and meets the needs of the County to deliver phone, visiting and on-line credit card bonding services to the Weld County Sheriff's Office.
