Committee approves RFP award for in‑car computers and CAD integration for sheriff patrol
Summary
The committee approved by consensus an RFP response to equip sheriff vehicles with in‑car computers and to integrate with 911 CAD systems (quoted at $26,006.84 for three vehicles), with funding routed through 911.
The committee reviewed an RFP response to add in‑car computers and a CAD interface for sheriff patrol vehicles and 911 dispatch. The clerk reported a quoted package price of $26,006.84 to outfit three vehicles with Telerad systems and CAD integration. Staff and the prosecutor supported the upgrade as a safety and efficiency improvement; one staff member said the system will reduce time spent on paperwork and improve officer confidence and response times.
Board members indicated the funding will be provided through the county’s 911 allocation and approved the procurement by consensus. Staff noted the chosen solution will resemble systems used by state police and local cities and will allow officers to access CAD information and print tickets from the cruiser.
