RFID Prison Management

Alanco signs Malaysian distributor deal

26 Dec 2005

Alanco Technologies Inc., producer of the TSI PRISM RFID-based officer duress and inmate tracking system for the corrections industry, has awarded AMG Infotech Ltd (AMG) in Melaka, Malaysia, an exclusive license to market and distribute its technology country-wide. The agreement with AMG calls for minimum annual purchase commitments, and includes up-front payments for marketing assistance and design services. Privately-held AMG is a leading provider of electronic security systems to the Malaysian federal government, including correctional facilities, and its management includes former high-ranking Malaysian prison officials. AMG has introduced RFID tracking to the Malaysian prison authorities as a new management tool to control inmate violence and reduce operating costs, resulting in approval of a TSI PRISM pilot project for the 700-inmate Banda Hilir prison in Melaka. System design, final pricing and construction planning is now underway.
