Simtrol is a software solutions company that focuses partly on assisting the criminal justice system with complicated court proceedings. With the company’s Arraigner™ platform, pre-trial procedure is made less time consuming and more cost effective. The software eliminates the sometimes risky need to transport prisoners and documents when it is not necessary.
Arraigner™ utilizes multi-point video conferencing technology to conduct “virtual” arraignments in real-time. The system also facilitates the seamless transfer of critical documents without the risk of loss, and records courtroom activity and data-flow.
Perhaps the best aspect of the Arraigner™ platform is its scalability. Simtrol conducts a needs analysis for interested county/state court systems, and gathers the information required to design the perfect solution to fit any situation. In fact, Arraigner™ saves courts so much time and money that – in the average county – it is an investment that will pay for itself in less than a year.
There seems to be quite a market for Simtrol’s product as well, as the majority of courthouses still utilize the same old primitive methods. According to J. Douglas Walker of the National Center for State Courts, “The latest advances in intelligent video surveillance, video streaming, and Web-based conferencing can help courts secure their facilities, increase operational efficiency, and improve the administration of justice.”
