Explanation

BACKGROUND:

Need: In 2003 the Division of Police implemented an electronic records management system (RMS) for offense and complaint/incident reports. As part of the original purchase contract the Division was provided the option to purchase (5) one-year annual software and maintenance terms.

Additionally, the Division needs to transfer funds within the 2002 Local Law Enforcement Block Grant to purchase this maintenance term.
