The full story

Sheriff's Office staff presented computer-aided dispatch (CAD) and records management (RMS) replacement as their top capital priority, telling the Strafford County delegation that the current system is roughly 15 years old and the vendor has stopped upgrades. A presenter said the replacement package — including initial implementation and support through year five — is quoted at approximately $1,388,168 (rounded in discussion to $1.4 million) and would take about 18 months from contract to go‑live for an agency of Strafford County's size.
