2. Did You Know? While the Oklahoma industries program is extensive, it costs the taxpayers of this state absolutely nothing! Oklahoma Correctional Industries is entirely self-supporting. The salaries of all administrators, factory superintendents, sales representatives, support personnel, and offender workers are paid with monies generated from the sale of OCI products and services rather than state appropriated funds. In addition to salaries, all equipment and materials required for production is purchased from these revenues.

9. OCI Goals The Major Goal of OCI is to provide HOPE for the future. Helping the offender worker to learn the work ethics needed to function in a productive career by providing meaningful employment during their period of incarceration. Oklahoma made products and services built with pride, confidence, and know-how that Oklahoma workers are famous for providing. Providing the offender worker a useful skill with the hope that it will be utilized after the term of incarceration has been completed. Economically, conserving taxpayer's money by providing quality products and services to eligible customers at competitive market prices.
