Corrections1 asked our resident SME; Why a layered screening strategy is critical for stopping contraband in correctional facilities?

Wednesday, 12 May 2021 by Charlie

Body Scanner detects Contraband

Smiths Detection X-ray technology screening inmates.

Contraband remains an ongoing problem for jails and prisons. Illicit drugs, weapons, cellphones and other prohibited items disrupt the safety and order of the correctional environment, as well as cause illness and injury. Drugs are a particular challenge, because they can be easily concealed and cause overdoses, leading to costly outcomes for the jail or prison.

Many organizations start looking for distributors of checkpoint security products as their first step in the specification, bid solicitation and procurement of threat, substance, and contraband detection and screening technologies. Distributors in most industries historically provide equipment to the “trades”, companies such as consultants and traditional brick and mortar resellers. The term has somewhat become generalized to mean a supplier of checkpoint security equipment. But is this what you really need?

The answer is most likely no. When it comes to the specification and deployment of critical security systems, you need specialists with tenure in the design and deployment of these technologies with their associated layered products and services. Why you may ask? Because your systems are critical to the safety of everyone involved and getting it wrong can be catastrophic and at the very least more costly than budgeted. When you partner with an organization like Access Control Systems, a company with decades of experience in the industry deploying security and threat detection systems, you are getting experience in not only the procurement of checkpoint security equipment, but decades of real-world experience in the deployment, running, maintenance and servicing of complete systems and solutions.
