Purchase of Crime Scene Reporting Hardware and Software (Addition) (Competition Exemption) (Citywide)
The Crime Scene Unit responds to approximately 6,500 crime scenes annually. The detailed notes taken at the scene are used to generate reports. This data is entered into the Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and often required to be entered into the Records Management System (RMS). This purchase of 30 CrimePads, a tablet computer device, and supporting software will facilitate productivity, accuracy, and the ability to interface with Forensics Services report writing and both LIMS and RMS. It will allow real-time data entry at crime scenes that will auto-populate into the LIMS, as well as minimize typos, data entry errors, and reviewed corrections.
City staff recommends authorizing the purchase with the sole source vendor, Visionations, at $64,917.12, based on estimated requirements. This purchase is grant funded by the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission.
