T-Netix, the high bid, met all specifications. Per the request of the Department of Corrections and
Department of Finance/ISD, T-Netix perfonned a demonstration of their system on site at the
Corrections Building. In addition, a representative of the Department of Corrections accompanied TNetix to a live site in Mississippi for observation of the system in production.. These demonstrations
allowed the State to corroborate that the proposed system met the requirements of the ITB.
Therefore, I recommend that this ITB be awarded to T-Netix.

Commission Percentage Guaranteed
This section is designed for the financial evaluation of bids based on the
commission percentages offered, once a vendor has met all technical and general
requirements of this ITB.
Vendors must complete the "Vendors Commission Percentage Guarantee" form.
The STATE will use the highest percentage shown on line one "PERCENTAGE
GUARANTEE" to determine which vendor is offering the highest commission to
the STATE.
Once a vendor has ·been awarded the con~ the STATE will expect the vendor to
pay the percentage offered on Line 1 for all categories (Local, IntraLATA, and
InterLATA). Percentages will be applied to the vendor's gross revenue to determine
the commissions owed to the STATE. Percentages are fIXed for the life of the
contract; commissions cannot be altered due to any fees or taxes mandated by
federal, state, or local government.
Gross revenue is defined as all revenue, whether controlled by the vendor or not,
generated by the telephone via customer origination. Examples of originated revenues
are: coin, 0+, 0·, 01+, 011+, 00-, 10xxx, 950-10xx, 1-800-xxx-xxxx, bank card, travel
and entertainment card revenue and not merely commissions paid to a vendor by a
subcontactor, e.g. Operator Services Provider (OPS), or interexchange carrier.

VII - VENDORS COMMISSION PERCENTAGE GUARANTEE
This fonn must be completed by the vendor, or the bid will be rejected. NO
WARRANTY, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, is made by the STATE that any
contract resulting from this ITB will include an equal or greater number of pay
telephones, revenue, or minutes of usage, as identified in ATTACHMENT Cor
elsewhere in this ITB.
The vendor is to enter on Line 1the percentage factor they will guarantee to
pay. The percentage factor will be entered with three decimal places. For
example, if the guaranteed percentage amount is 50%, 50.000 would be
entered on Line '1.
This percentage factor will be applied to the vendors gross revenue to
determine the commissions owed to the STATE each month.
This percentage factor will be the basis for award, assuming all technical
specifications have been met.
Line 1: PERCENTAGE GUARANTEE =
%
The percentage factor entered above must be transferred to the price sheet
(Page 7).
