ANNOTATION: Results from an evaluation of MINNCOR Industries’ overall management and business practices are presented. Sections of this report include: introduction; background; inmate employment, wages, and hours worked; finances—sales, expenditures, and profitability; management issues regarding private labor arrangements, planning and marketing, customer satisfaction, product pricing, coordination, license plates, inmate outcomes, and conclusions; list of recommendations; and agency response. “MINNCOR has generally done a good job in achieving high levels of inmate employment and generating enough revenue to cover its costs. Some of its practices though, especially regarding its labor arrangements with private businesses, lack transparency and have placed the state at risk. Financial reporting and oversight need to be improved” (p. ix).
