RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to execute Software and Services Agreement Amendment No.2 with Gemalto Cogent, Inc., to amend the term of the contract from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2018 to a new term of January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2020, with no change in payment limit. Unforeseen delays from an outside agency has caused a set-back on this project.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no additional fiscal impact from this action.

BACKGROUND:

The California Identification System (Cal-ID) is the automated system maintained by the California Department of Justice (DOJ) for retaining fingerprint files and identifying latent fingerprints. Cal-ID funds are collected from the fees from each vehicle registered - two dollars for non-commercial vehicles and four dollars from commercial vehicles - and are used to fund programs that enhance the capacity of the state and local law enforcement to provide mobile Automated Fingerprint Identification Systems (AFIS) that allow identification of individuals involved in motor vehicle crimes.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

The California Department of Justice has established the Remote Access Network (RAN), which is a uniform statewide network of equipment and procedures allowing local law enforcement agencies direct access to the Cal-ID System. The Contra Costa County local RAN board determines the placement of RAN equipment within the County, and coordinates the acceptance, delivery, and installation of RAN equipment. Acting as the local RAN board, mobile fingerprint identification hardware has been distributed to local law enforcement agencies within the County pursuant to the criteria specified in the Penal Code.

Under this contract, additional mobile fingerprint devices, software, implementation services, and software support services are being purchased so that local law enforcement agencies can connect to the Cal-ID system while in the field.

The Cogent Gemalto Mobile Identification (Mobile ID) solution provides a system that manages the transactions of mobile fingerprint captures from the field. The system will manage searches of the local Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) as well as the California Department of Justices’ (Cal-DOJ) AFIS and Federal Bureau of Investigations’ (FBI) Repository for Individuals of Special Concern (RISC) databases. The mobile identification devices and software bring the power of a full-scale AFIS to officers’ hands while in the field for all agencies within Contra Costa, to provide fast, accurate identity verification, arrest records, and warrant information on subjects contacted in the field. The contract extension is necessary for project completion. The Department of Justice is implementing the same project and it needs to be completed before the County's project.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If the Office of the Sheriff is not allowed to extend the contract term the project will not be completed.
