Police Department Computer Aided Dispatch/Records Management System Upgrade - City of Nashua

The Nashua Police Department (NPD) would like to request Capital Improvements funding for Fiscal Year 2023 to cover the costs associated with the design, building, implementation, and maintenance of a fully integrated Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD), Records Management (RMS), Management Information (MIS), Mobile Data Computing (MDC), Evidence Inventory, Criminal Case Tracking for legal prosecution, and Photo Imaging systems including applications software, operating system software, hardware equipment and all required peripherals and integration services to serve the Nashua Police Department. The current systems utilized by NPD are approaching 20 years of use. The software was first implemented in the department in early 2004. While the software still allows the department to function on a day-to-day basis, the product itself has been purchased and/or acquired several times in recent years by several larger companies. The current vendor has vowed to keep the product in support. However, they will no longer add new features and fixes unless obligated by state and local laws or current contracts. This has forced the department into a position where it can no longer request necessary changes when needed, to adapt to an ever changing environment. Lastly, the current CAD/RMS system runs on antiquated technology that requires extensive networking and limits the ability to operate outside the perimeter of the department's current location. Many systems now available on the market offer "cloud based" or "hybrid" versions which, in the event of a catastrophe or damaging event, Dispatching and Reporting can be easily relocated offsite in a moment's notice and critical services can continue with little to no disruption of the services the department provides to the community. In addition, this older technology has proven new challenges while attempting to implement newer complementary technology, such as the recent installation of body worn and in car video. Due to the outdated technology of the CAD/RMS, the department struggled to be able to get these two products to work in conjunction. The estimated cost of this project is $500,000 - $600,000. This project is in included in the City of Nashua - Planning FY 2023 - 2028 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). As of June 14, 2022, further details regarding design and construction have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
