Commissioners approve three-year evidence-management contract with NICE Systems
Summary
Missoula County approved a three-year master relationship agreement with NICE Systems Incorporated to provide evidence management software and an interface with the county's case management system; the contract was included in the current budget and breaks down to rising annual costs across the initial term.
Missoula County commissioners approved a master relationship agreement with NICE Systems Incorporated to provide the county's evidence management software and interface with the county's case-management systems.
County staff said the contract covers an initial three-year term and was already approved as part of the county's last budget process. Staff presented the expected annual costs as approximately $90,000 in year one, just over $97,000 in year two and $108,000 in year three.
A county presenter described the system as necessary to handle an "explosion of data" for evidentiary purposes and said the vendor would allow the county's case management to interface with evidence management. Commissioners asked no substantive follow-up questions and voted to approve the consent item. The presenter said the contract amount was included in the prior budget round.
Discussion versus formal action: county staff presented the contract terms and the board gave formal approval as part of the consent agenda; no separate appropriation or amendment to the budget was recorded at the meeting beyond prior budget approval.
Ending: The contract will move forward as presented; staff did not schedule additional reporting on implementation in the recorded discussion.
