SUBJECT: City Council Meeting, June 23, 1994
ITEM: 9.D. Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to enter into an agreement for
Microcomputer Servers for the Police Department and Municipal Court.
STAFF RESOURCE PERSON: Wes Wolff
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
The Police Department and Municipal Court have been maintaining their computerized
records on a single system for the past four years. This system is currently operating in excess of
90% data storage capacity of the machine. In fact some users have been removed to make room
for expansion of other critical areas.
It was determined that the most cost effective means of meeting the data processing needs
of these two departments was to add two microcomputer servers and create a three machine
network. One server will be placed at Municipal Court, this should meet the data processing
needs for the next five years. Physically locating this system at Municipal Court will also
eliminate communication errors occurring due to their distance from the Police Department.
The second server will be located at the Police Department. Its primary function will be to
support the Dispatch and Patrol data processing needs. Currently, due to the severe demands on
the existing system, the process speed has been effected to the point of interfering with
operational efficiency. This server is also intended to meet the Dispatch and Patrol needs for five
years.
Two bids were received for Microcomputer Servers for Police and Municipal Court:
SabreData $19,881.16
CompUSA $24,230.00
Staff recommends awarding SabreData the bid for the Microcomputer Servers for Police
and Municipal Court.
