Contract Award for Tactical Training Manikins <br />April 17, 2018 <br />Page 2 <br />The current mannequins being utilized were designed for "dragging" exercises only. They are <br />several years old, are breaking apart, and do not offer any of the realistic simulations that current <br />products do such as respiration, bleeding, and speaking various phrases. Since the purchase of <br />the current mannequins, the technology for realistic life -like training aids has advanced <br />exponentially. The most realistic mannequin on the market today is the TOMManikin Gen4 <br />Tactical Training Manikin, and is specifically designed for courses just like TECC. The <br />TOMManikin includes very realistic features such as gunshot wounds, amputated limb, sucking <br />chest wound, etc. It comes with a compressor to regulate realistic breathing, as well as a tablet <br />to control speaking, bleeding, movement, and much more. <br />The TOMManikin is the best product available to train first responders in life-saving measures <br />with a realism that is unparalleled. The City desires to use FY15 UASI funds to procure two <br />TOMManikins to enhance and continue the quality of the TECC training course. The skills <br />learned in this course have been deployed and documented several times since inception and <br />have helped save the lives of several Santa Ana residents. <br />The notice inviting bids was advertised on March 13, 2018 and offers were solicited.
