2. APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to execute Amendment No. 1 to Software and Services Agreement for the term April 8, 2017 through April 7, 2018, with an annual renewal thereafter until terminated for the purchase of additional licenses and software support.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$300,000, 100% General Fund; Budgeted

BACKGROUND:

The Sheriff-Coroner Office executed a Software License Agreement and a Support Services Agreement with Level II, Inc., in April 2016 and paid for the first year of services with a purchase order. Ratification of these agreements is necessary. Additional software licenses have been obtained by the Sheriff’s Office during since the agreements were entered into and the Support Services Agreement needs to be amended to allow for the payment of the additional licenses and continued support. Level II Incorporated is the Sheriff’s Office vendor for our Message Switch product. The message switch is the conduit that allows all Law Enforcement in Contra Costa County to connect to the California Law Enforcement Telecommunications System (CLETS). CLETS is a compilation of multiple databases including Stolen Vehicle System, Wanted Persons System, Missing and Unidentified system etc. CLETS is critical data for officer safety as well as the public’s safety. This product is also used by the Courts, District Attorney’s Office, Fire Investigation and Probation.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Officer and public safety would be compromised.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

None.
