Board approves hiring Paramount Claims and Digi Security contract for jail controls; approves claims and purchase orders
Summary
The authority hired Paramount Claims Service as the third‑party claims administrator for $20,000 for 2026–2027, approved a Digi Security Systems agreement (state contract SW1048D) for a Sydaptic jail controls upgrade, and approved multiple detention‑center and emergency‑management purchase orders and claims.
The board voted to hire Paramount Claims Service as a third‑party administrator for handling liability claims during the uninsured/self‑insured period and approved a proposal for TPA services for the 2026–2027 term at a cost of $20,000. David Cooper of Insurica explained the broker's position that using a third‑party administrator would improve credibility for future coverage.
Separately, the authority approved a Material & Installation Agreement with Digi Security Systems for a Sydaptic jail controls upgrade, utilizing state contract SW1048D.
