Explanation

BACKGROUND: This ordinance authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Safety, on behalf of the Division of Support Services, to enter into a contract with Intergraph Corporation for Premium Maintenance Services and software licenses for the Computer Aided Dispatching System (CAD) starting June 1, 2024 through May 31, 2025. CAD is used to assist in processing calls from the public to the Department of Public Safety's dispatch center (both Police and Fire). The system aids the call-takers and dispatchers by electronically moving pertinent data to the proper field personnel over voice or data communications. CAD also stores data for record-keeping purposes. The Director of Public Safety contracted with Intergraph Corporation in March 2010 to replace the City's CAD system. Intergraph completed the project and went live with the new CAD system in June 2011, and is in the process of completing a new CAD upgrade.
