New AV system chosen for courts County officials have chosen a local company to provide an install new audio/visual systems with enhanced teleconferencing capacity for local courtrooms. The Bartholomew County commissioners accepted a bid of $158,420 from the locally-based CIM Technology Solutions to provide and install the equipment in all courtrooms except Bartholomew Circuit Court. New equipment for Judge Kelly Benjamin’s courtroom was already part of the extensive renovation now underway in that courtroom, county IT director Scott Mayes said. While the county originally estimated the new equipment would cost $200,000, the bid from CIM Technology came in under that — at $155,420, Mayes said. In addition, the county has purchased a one-year managed services agreement for $3,000 that will ensure local courts will have the shortest possible repair time if needed, he said.
