1. Establish Effective Wi-fi in Correctional Facilities
2. Video Visitation Service (VVS)– Implementation

Scope:

Technology and Innovation ministry requires Information Technology (IT) professional resources to provide a Senior Technical Business Analyst for the project delivery of the IMT ministry projects to Modernize & Enhancements of GoA Service Delivery within the ministry of T&I for the Alberta Public Safety and Emergency Services Ministry (PSES) - Correctional Services Division (CSD)

Initiatives to Modernize & Enhancements of GoA Service Delivery include multiple Department applications including the following:

Establish Effective Wi-Fi in Correctional Facilities- Phase 2 Implementation-

Alberta's provincial correctional centers continue to face technology and connectivity limitations that restrict access to modern digital services and can impede the delivery of key justice, health, and correctional initiatives. The Correctional Services Division (CSD) Wi-Fi Implementation initiative is delivering secure end-to-end wireless infrastructure across all provincial correctional facilities, with implementation now substantially complete and only two of the ten facilities remaining. Once fully deployed, the solution will support virtual court appearances, electronic disclosure, e-learning, telehealth, staff mobility, and other digital services, improving operational efficiency, enhancing service delivery, and enabling correctional facilities to support current and future government digital transformation priorities.

Video Visitation Service (VVS)– Implementation

Alberta Correctional Services has been implementing a province-wide Video Visitation Service (VVS) to provide inmates with secure, reliable virtual access to family, friends, legal counsel, and other approved professional visitors. The initiative was originally established to ensure visitation services could be maintained during pandemic-related or similar disruptions while also modernizing the overall visitation experience across provincial correctional facilities. With implementation completed at the Edmonton Remand Centre (ERC) and the project now in its final key phase, the focus is on realizing the original vision of a modern, standardized video visitation platform, including enhanced technology capabilities and system-to-system integration with the Offender Management System. In addition to improving accessibility, operational efficiency, and service delivery, the initiative establishes the foundation for future province-wide expansion of video visitation capabilities, enabling Correctional Services to support evolving operational needs and deliver a consistent, scalable visitation experience across Alberta's correctional network.
