CR 98-092 Consulting Service For Police RecordsJune 9, 1998 Overview Council Report 98 -092 Staff recommends approval of the following motion: Move that the City approve the proposal for consulting services for the Police Records Management System to CRS Consulting & Engineering, Inc. The police department records management system (RMS) is scheduled for replacement this year. Because of the scope and complexity of these systems, it is a normal practice for cities to use consultants to assist with the replacement project. The Police Department requested proposals from three firms. CRS Consulting and Engineering, Inc. is currently under contract by the city of Eden Prairie for their RMS project. As we have had preliminary talks with Eden Prairie on the feasibility of sharing a system, and are actively pursuing this option, it may be practical to consider using the same consultant. The cost for the work outlined in the document from CRS is $26,300, plus expenses for a stand -alone project. As long as we could work our meetings into existing trips for other projects, these expenses should be minimal. Should the city decide to procure the system in conjunction with the City of Eden Prairie, the total cost for the services listed would be $18,107. Proposals from the other two firms were $23,500 and $25,000 + expenses. Supporting Documents Proposal, CRS Consulting and Engineering, Inc. 4 JAJ f Heather M.

By V 1.0 03/30/98 16 of 16 Consulting Services for CAD /RMS 1 of 1 Subject: Consulting Services for CAD/RMS Date: Sat, 28 Mar 1998 10:58:40 -0700 From: "Scott Skibness" <scotts_crs @email.msn.com> To: "Heather Alex - Hopkins" <hmalex @HPD911.org> Heather, Per our conversation, I have attached a sample services agreement and have outlined some additional information on pricing. The sample services agreement shows the type of services CRS would provide and the cost to the City for a stand -alone project. The total cost as outlined in the agreement is $26,300 plus expenses. As I mentioned, as long as we could work our meetings into existing trips I have planed for other projects, these expenses would be minimal. Should the City elect for CRS to provided only some of the services listed, the cost for the individual services are as follows: System Discovery / Needs Assessment- $2,893, RFP Preparation & Evaluation - $8,942, Scope of Work - $4,208, Implementation - $7,627 and Acceptance. Testing - $2,630. If the City decides to procure the system in conjunction with the City of Eden Prairie, the total cost for the services listed would be $18,107. This could be, as we discussed, a shared or an individual system procured together from one source. I hope this information has been helpful and if you have any question I can be reached at 303.921.1900 or by e -mail at ScottS @MSN.COM.
