Technical Support Services is tasked with
providing and maintaining the technical infrastructure of the

department, providing continuous in-house training to keep staff

In 2007, Technical Support Services obtained and installed two
mass storage devices to augment our network storage capabilities,
successfully implemented a wireless in-car camera system to replace
our fleet’s VHS recording cameras, worked in conjunction with the
City of Spartanburg’s IT Department to install wireless cameras
(viewable remotely) that continually scan and record activity on
Morgan Square and the bike/walking trail, worked with the Detention
Center to provide our Prisoner Transport personnel access to their
inmate information system, and provided in-car access to the myriad
tools available through the internet, while also implementing a
virus protection scheme.
