Software that runs correctional facilities, from admission to release

Global Correctional Services designs and builds the systems detention institutions depend on. Our Resident Administration System manages every resident, process and facility from one central point.

Use them on their own, or as the foundation of a solution designed around your processes.

RASResident Administration System

Every resident and every facility in one system

RAS is a detention management system for prisons, jails, youth detention centres, safe housing and police station detention. It runs a single facility or a network of linked facilities.

  • Admissions, releases, transfers and movement
  • Rehabilitation programmes, work allocation and vocational training
  • Visitation and cash management
  • Facial images and fingerprints for identification
  • Scanned documents attached to the records they belong to

CLSCashless Society

A controlled, cashless facility

Cashless Society takes cash out of daily life inside the facility. Residents check their balance, see their transactions and move money between accounts, verified by biometrics.

  • Biometric access control
  • Balance and transaction enquiries, and fund transfers
  • Canteen purchases and cash-taking kiosks
  • Deposits registered, and cash paid out on release

  2. Detention

    Keep detention records and movement within the facility up to date.

  3. Programmes

    Enrol residents in rehabilitation programmes and vocational training.

  4. Work

    Allocate work and keep assignments current.

  5. Visits

    Schedule and manage visitation.

  6. Transfers

    Move residents between linked facilities with their full record.

  7. Release

    Process the release and settle the resident's cash.
