Budget estimate

$500,000 – $2,000,000

Estimating a statewide inmate telephone system project typically ranges from a few hundred thousand dollars for hardware and basic installation to several million dollars when accounting for full network integration, compliance testing, training, and multi‑year support. Based on similar correctional telecom contracts, a reasonable ballpark is $500,000 – $2,000,000. Factors influencing the range include the number of facilities, system complexity, existing infrastructure, and the length of support/maintenance agreements.
