TRITECH AUTOMATIC VEHICLE LOCATOR (AVL) SYSTEM FOR THE POLICE
FROM CITIZEN'S OPTION FOR PUBLIC SAFETY PROGRAM (COPS/SLESF)
WHEREAS, the Police Department uses an Automatic Vehicle Locator (AVL) that
allows for real time vehicle locations to reduce response times and improve incident
management, allowing dispatchers to make informed unit recommendations based on actual
location versus last known location, and call -takers to provide accurate estimated time of arrival
updates to concerned callers; and

2010-267 for the sole -source purchase of an Automatic Vehicle Locating System (the "System")
from TriTech Software Systems for the Police Department in the reimbursable grant amount of
$34,084.35 from the FY 08 State Homeland Security Grant Program and Citizen's Option for
Public Safety Program (COPS/SLESF); and
WHEREAS, during the installation of the System, it was determined that the
Standard Trimble Interface was not compatible with the Department's current CAD interface; and
WHEREAS, TriTech Software Systems conducted several evaluations of the
current Automatic Vehicle Locator structure and determined that the existing stand alone Sierra
Wireless devices currently in use by the City's Police cars are capable of independent
communication to an upstream server; and
WHEREAS, it is recommended that additional funds in the amount of $18,490 from
the Citizen's Option for Public Safety Program (COPS/SLESF) for the grant purchase of license,
software, and services be authorized to upgrade to the Standard TriTech Automatic Vehicle
Locating System interface to create a very durable and reliable software solution.
