Birmingham, AL – August 23, 2022 – Black Creek Integrated Systems Corp. has been selected to provide our SallyPort©NY Jail Management System for use by the Putnam Co. Sheriff’s Office. The Sheriff’s Office will use the Black Creek SallyPort©NY JMS software to manage inmate data at the Putnam Co. Jail, located in Carmel, NY. The Putnam Co. Jail is a medium security facility that houses inmates awaiting trial or sentencing, with an average daily population of 50-65 inmates and approximately 190 new bookings per month. Inmates are generally housed in this facility for 2 years or less.

SallyPort©NY is a browser-based jail management system that provides greater efficiency and security for inmate records management via its many intrinsic features, including My Queues and workflow, digital mugshot image capture, inmate screening and classification, inmate time computation, inmate property inventory and transactions, inmate scheduling module, facility account module, standard and ad-hoc reporting capabilities, medical module, expansive audit capabilities, threat group assessment, intra-agency messaging, and electronic shift log to replace paper logs. Additional integration to be implemented for Putnam Co. will include a Live Scan fingerprint interface, an interface to the VINE database for victim notifications related to inmate releases, an interface to the facility’s GTL inmate phone system, a driver’s license scanner interface for logging visitors, and an Inmate Commissary interface. Driver’s license scanners and fingerprint scanners for use with the Live Scan application will be used to streamline data entry.

As part of its implementation of SallyPort©NY, the Putnam Co. Sheriff’s Office will also employ Black Creek’s wellness check and guard tour system, Watch Tour Manager®, which allows agency management to ensure facility tours are conducted on schedule and in compliance with policy. Black Creek’s Watch Tour Manager® application is the most innovative correctional wellness check system in the industry and is fully integrated with SallyPort©NY. Using compatible mobile devices, officers can conduct tours, capture images and videos, enter notes, and receive alerts, all from the palms of their hands. Supervisors receive real-time notification of missed or late tours, as well as advanced tracking and reporting of tours by officer, unit, alert type, and date range.
