RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff- Coroner, or designee, to execute a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), with Solano County, in an amount not to exceed $50,000 to implement and execute Disaster a Recovery/Back Up solution for the Automated Regional Information Exchange System (ARIES) for the period of January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No part of this purchase will be funded by County General Fund. ARIES is funded with a cost sharing structure through annual agency maintenance fees that are assessed each fiscal year to each member agency.

BACKGROUND:

ARIES is a software application owned by Contra Costa County. It is used by the County and other law enforcement agencies to manage parolee and arrest data collected from law enforcement agencies. ARIES serves more than 9,000 users from over 93 different agencies. The purpose of this MOU is to implement critical infrastructure and enhance system security.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The objective of implementing and executing a Disaster Recovery/Back Up solution is to ensure that ARIES can respond to a disaster or other emergency that affects the information systems and to minimize the effect on the operation of the day to day functions. Currently there is not a Disaster Recovery/Back Up infrastructure in place to protect ARIES from fire, natural disaster or any other destructive activity. If the MOU is not approved, there will not be plan in place to ensure that essential operational tasks can be conducted after the disruption and the inability to facilitate the rapid restoration of data.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

No impact.
