<br />.J <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Memo to~ Robert T. Herrera, City Manager <br />August 14, 1991 <br />Re: Law Enforcement System <br /> <br /> <br />The estimated cost for a stand alone Computer Aided <br />Dispatch/Law Enforcement/Municipal Court System is $ 263,000. <br />The attached exhibit "A" outlines recommended revenue sources <br />for Council's consideration. <br /> <br />.------- <br /> <br />This budget is extremely tight and one option that will be <br />explored is a phased installation of Municipal Court which <br />could defer some expenses until next budget year and coincide <br />with the approximate time that court would move to the Police <br />Administration Building. <br /> <br />After review by Council and with their consensus, the MIS <br />Commi ttee will request authorization to retain the Accord <br />Group to perform task one of their proposed contract for <br />services. Staff would then return to Council for approval and <br />authorization of the remaining tasks described in the proposal <br />for services. . <br /> <br />iNSTALLATION OF NCC SOFTWARE (LATEST REVISIONS) <br /> <br />The MIS Committee also discussed with NCC the installation of <br />latest revisions for the following systems: <br /> <br />. Payroll <br />. Accounts Payable <br />. Purchasing <br />. Budgetary Accounting <br />. Human Resources <br /> <br />NCC's first response had a estimated cost of $ 28,000 - $ <br />30,000. The committee felt that this expense was hard to <br />justify when weighed against the benefits. Also, the <br />management study stated that the Data General platform was <br />nearing the end of it's productive life cycle (and that <br />, replacement should be considered in the near future). When <br />informed of this NCC countered with an alternate proposal, <br />replacement of the Data General computer with a DEC platform <br />and new software. The estimated cost for converting to a new <br />hardware/software platform was approximately $270,000 <br />$280,000. <br /> <br />The MIS committee recognized that there was already one <br />extremely ambitious project in process, consideration of a new <br />law enforcement system. With limited resources in both <br />personnel and funds available it was decided to defer the <br />reinstallation of NCC software and/or the conversion to a new <br />hardware/software platform to another budget year(s). <br />
