COUNCIL DISTRICT(S) IMPACTED: City Wide
SUBJECT:
Records Management System for San Antonio Police Department
SUMMARY:
The City Council will be provided with a briefing on the procurement of a records management system (RMS) for the San Antonio Police Department.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The current RMS was deployed in 2009 and integrates with the City's Public Safety Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system. The RMS allows for report creation, storage, retrieval, retention, archiving and viewing of information related to police activities. The City of San Antonio Police Department requested proposals from qualified firms to replace the current Records Management System (RMS) with a web-based, National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS) compliant records management system. The NIBRS crime reporting standard has been mandated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to replace current Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) standard by no later than January 2021. Law enforcement agencies that are not NIBRS compliant will be ineligible to receive Federal law enforcement grants. Annually, SAPD receives $3 to $7 million in Federal grants.
SAPD, the Information Technology Services Department (ITSD), and the Finance Department, Purchasing Division collaborated in the issuance of the RFP and the procurement process. The table below provides a high level overview of the procurement timeline:
