PROJECT TITLE: Joint Police/Fire Communication System and installation of the equipment with general system design. Phase III will be the design, development and preliminary system tests, system imp- lementation, operation and post-implementation review. The Advisory Committee will assist in establishing a preliminary set of system criteria and performance standards to be used as guidelines for the on-going project modules and development activities. The Advisory Committee will actively participate in the formulation of the necessary procedural re- quirements to be expanded and'tailored during the course of the project. Travel to, and review of similar successful systems and their highlights for evaluation and consideration for poSsible implementation to this system will be conducted when appropriate. Potential sites are Huntington Beach, Long Beach, Los Angeles, Baldwin Park, Newport Beach and Redondo Beach. The procedures outlined in the Orange County System Development Manual will be utilized by the Advisory Committee and project technical staff where appropriate to insure compatibility of effort with existing and/or projected information system development projects in Orange County. Phase I of the proposed project will entail the development of a detailed set of system de- si~n specifications and performance standards that will permit the most eco- nomic and feasible collection, storage, retrieval and analysis of baseline data required to support the communication functions. The operational data required to support the Communication functions also will be defined. This definition will identify the type, source, character- istics, and format of the necessary data, and include an indication of the "value" or "utility" of the data according to actual or potential demand, use, and "importance". The specifications and performance standards developed during Phase I will be reviewed by the Advisory Committee to insure appro- priateness, utility, cost effectiveness, interface compatibility and personnel acceptance. An operational system design will be developed during Phase II of the pro- posed project, in accordance with the specifications formulated during Phase I and hardware procurement and installation executed. The system design will include (1) the procedural requirements for the acquisition, processing, dis- playing, analysis, and ~i~seminatton of data pertaining to the communication functions~ (2) the specifications for data forms, formats and files; (3) ad- ministrative and coh~rol procedures~ (4) general training requirements~ and ($) requirements for system implementation and post-implementation testing and review (Phase III).. Many of the tasks of Phase I and II will be carried out concurrently. System specifications and data requirements will be developed and processed through- out the Phase I and Pha~e II effort. Similarly, the data collection analysis activities and the systenKdesign will be iterative and flexible processes whereby the current set of available information can be processed through all tasks concurrently. Additional data, analyses and definitions that are re- quired or in need of refinement also can be readily identified and pursued. -2-
