Facility custody is an item under which OIMS section?

• A. Education
• B. Release
• C. Location Tracking
• D. Programs

Answer: (C)

In OIMS, data about where an offender is and what level of supervision they are under inside a facility is organized under Location Tracking. Facility custody describes the offender’s current confinement status and exact location within the institution—such as housing unit or cell—and any movements within the facility. That kind of information is fundamentally about location and supervisory status, which is why it belongs in Location Tracking.

Education deals with schooling and related activities, Release covers the process and status of leaving confinement, and Programs track participation in approved activities. Since facility custody is about where the offender is and how they are supervised inside the facility, Location Tracking is the appropriate section.
