RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Animal Services Director, or designee, to execute a contract, including modified indemnification, with Tiburon, Inc., in the amount not to exceed $165,000 to provide a computer aided dispatch system for the Contra Costa County Animal Services Department for the period of October 1, 2019 to September 30, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The contract cost is $165,000 which is 100% funded by the General Fund, budgeted.

BACKGROUND:

Under this contract, Tiburon, Inc. will implement a Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system for dispatching the Animal Services Department’s Field Operations unit. Presently, the Department utilizes the Contra Costa County Office of the Sheriff (CCCOS) for dispatch services from 1700 to 0800 Tuesday — Friday and all day Sunday and Monday.

This contract will integrate with the CCCOS’s dispatch unit system called Tiburon. The proposed Animal Services Department service contract will include the initial dispatch system equipment and planning phase for the Department to establish the Tiburon CAD system.

The contract includes modifications to the County’s general conditions. In Section 3 (Records), modifications extend confidentiality to the inspection of contractor records. Section 5 (Termination and Cancellation) was revised to provide a 30 day period for either party to cure default and a 30 day notice requirement for the County to notify the contractor of lack of funding. Section 18 (Indemnification) was revised to specify that under the Contract, the Contractor’s liability will be limited to the total amount paid under the contract, or in the instance of death or personal injury, $1,000,000, which is contractor’s insurance limit. Section 25 (Copyrights, Rights in Data and Works Made for Hire) was revised to remove the Works Made for Hire requirements.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to approve this contract will affect the Department’s capacity to provide Field Services for contracted Cities with the Contra Costa County.
