INFORMATION CONTACT:
Vicki Callicutt, Emergency Communications, Communications Director, 704-283-3550
ACTION REQUESTED:
Authorize the County Manager to approve Purchase Order on NC State Contract 725G in the amount of $69,867.95 to Motorola for the purchase and installation of an Archiving Interface Server (AIS) to be used in conjunction with the logging recorder at the new Emergency Services Facility.
BACKGROUND:
All incoming calls and radio traffic are required to be recorded in compliance with North Carolina Administrative Code 09 NCAC 06C.0207 (c). Future TDMA radio system upgrades will require hardware replacements to the existing radio hardware in order to record P25 trunked radio channels in a TDMA environment. Currently, Union County is using 10 end of life XTL5000 mobile radios which are rack mounted to capture this audio. With the replacement of logging recorder, it is financially advantageous to upgrade to an archiving interface server ahead of the TDMA conversion to ensure compliance with Administrative Code.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
$68,715.55 to be funded from existing 911 Fund balance and $1,152.40 from the building CIP for non-eligible expenses from the Fund Balance.
