It is recommended that the City Council approve the professional services agreement renewal with EIS from July 1, 2011, through June 30, 2012, in the amount of $24,640. DISCUSSION Since 2003, the City has had an agreement with EIS for public safety software system support. EIS has the proprietary rights /ownership to the law enforcement safety software programs used by the Police Department. The software programs include: Law Records Management, Computer Assisted Dispatch (CAD), Report Writing, Mobile Digital Communications, Los Angeles County Interface, and a Customer Service Portal for submitting crime reports online, which was added in 2009. All these software programs are used in the Department's daily operation for data management. EIS reduced the contract cost by 5% for FY 2009 -2010 and FY 2010 -2011. However, due to their rising costs, the new contract amount for FY 2011 -2012 has increased by 10% to $24,640. FISCAL IMPACT For the term of the professional services agreement, from July 1, 2011, to June 30, 2012, the fees for EIS for public safety software system support services will be $24,640. The amount has been budgeted in the City's Operating Budget for FY 2011 -2012.
