Text messaging is the most used method of communication among smartphone users—in fact, 97% of users text at least once a day. What if community corrections departments could leverage this increasingly popular method of communication in their daily client interactions? With the SCRAM TouchPoint® mobile app, officers can enhance client engagement by harnessing the ease and popularity of text messaging.
From raw GPS location points to client stop patterns, SCRAM Systems is constantly striving to develop new methods to distill the 1,440 location points generated per client per day into quantitative data for officers. SCRAM GPS® now has Pattern of Life (POL) mapping, designed to provide even more detail on how and where clients spend their time.
For sexual assault or domestic violence victims, knowing their abuser is being tracked with a GPS bracelet may not be enough. Working in conjunction with SCRAM GPS, the new SCRAM Ally Victim Notification app alerts the victim and supervising authorities when a GPS client is in proximity to the victim’s phone, for added peace of mind.
As part of their monitoring regimen, officers may want to know a client’s location in addition to their alcohol monitoring. While the SCRAM CAM® bracelet does not have built-in GPS, SCRAM Systems offers other solutions that can be used in tandem with or in lieu of a continuous alcohol monitoring bracelet.
With the average GPS client generating almost 1,500 location points a day, it can be time consuming to sift through the data, making it difficult for officers to pinpoint issues they need to address with their clients. But SCRAM GPS® Analytics and On-Demand Pursuit Mode make it easy for officers to simplify large amounts of data and quickly find and follow a client’s movements.
Depending on where your location monitoring program and clients are located, one mobile network provider may offer superior coverage over another. And better coverage not only reduces the potential for location failure alerts but can also improve the battery life of a GPS device.
Better matters when you’re supervising high-risk clients. That’s why SCRAM Systems focuses on developing better monitoring solutions, providing better customer support, and offering better training. SCRAM GPS continues this focus on excellence with features like on-demand Pursuit Mode, guess-free tamper technology, and the industry’s best battery life.
Brown County, Wisconsin, added SCRAM GPS into its work release program in July 2015. Now, more than 100 clients are monitored each day with SCRAM GPS.
SCRAM Systems recently unveiled the next generation of our GPS location monitoring system. With an industry-leading strap design, the industry’s best battery life, and user-friendly software, SCRAM GPS provides the tools programs need to better manage their caseloads.
While only a little more than half of U.S. households have a landline telephone, over 75% have Internet service. That’s why SCRAM Systems recently added Ethernet capability to the base station used with SCRAM Continuous Alcohol Monitoring and SCRAM House Arrest.
