The Northrop Grumman Public <br />Safety, Inc. (PSI) automated field reporting software enables the patrol <br />vehicle computers to link with the Police Department's Computer Aided <br />Dispatch (CAD) system. This link permits the computers to send and receive <br />messages, calls for service, emergency traffic, and information regarding <br />wants and warrants. Additionally, the software allows officers to complete <br />their police reports on their vehicle computers while still in the field. <br />The PSI software is proprietary and can only be serviced by Northrop <br />Grumman. The one-year service agreement amendment will provide <br />maintenance, upgrades, and support for the software. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br /> <br />Funds are available in the Police Department's Computer Systems fund <br />(account no. 11-338-6291) <br /> <br />APPROVED AS TO FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS: <br /> <br />cf4. ~~ <br /> <br />It.
