Explanation

BACKGROUND: To authorize the Director of Finance and Management to enter into contract with IES Interactive Training for the purchase of hardware and software to upgrade the MILO Range System. The MILO Range System is a computer based training tool for law enforcement. MILO Range addresses the entire use of force training continuum in law enforcement, training the Division's officers to use posture, verbalization, soft hand skills, impact weapons, chemical spray, low-light, electronic weapons and lethal force in a scenario based classroom environment. The MILO Range System helps the officers keep pace and train on the latest technology using real world scenarios by featuring self authoring editing capabilities, thus keeping the training relevant, current, and stimulating to the trainee. This enables the Division to evaluate officers' suspect encountering skills and evaluate their decision making abilities. The upgrade will include the latest version of MILO (Range PRO) and new scenarios and graphic-based targeting skill builders.

Bid Information: The upgrade for the Division of Police's MILO Range System will add proprietary software to our existing training system and will add hardware that was previously unavailable at the time of our initial purchase in August 2005 (Ordinance 1235-2005). The Division of Police is requesting that the Finance and Management Director make this purchase in accordance with the sole source procurement of Columbus City Codes Chapter 329.

The contract with IES Interactive Training will cost $6,500.00
