Indiana prison inmates will no longer be a part of the license plate production process starting May 1.

The Bureau of Motor Vehicles plans to outsource the production and distribution of the state's license plates and vehicle registrations for the next several years. Inmates at the state prison in Michigan City had made the plates as a subcontractor for decades.

The BMV has entered into a $72 million contract with Intellectual Technology Inc. The company will receive yearly payments from the BMV until the end of 2019.
