☒Recommendation of the County Administrator ☐ Recommendation of Board Committee
RECOMMENDATIONS:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the District Attorney, or designee, to execute a Software License Agreement with Pryme Infil in an amount not to exceed $7,500 for the usage of a software for investigative team operations for the period September 10, 2024 through August 19, 2025.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this action will result in expenditures of up to $7,500 which are included in the Department’s FY2024-2025 Budget and within its General Fund allocation.
BACKGROUND:
Individuals working in the Bureau of Investigations within the District Attorney’s Office will utilize Pryme Infil software for safe mission, operational planning, and risk assessments. The software allows for the creation, modification, and approval of operational orders in the field, improving operational efficiency. The software allows the investigative team to coordinate real time communications, surveillance, and arrests in a secure end to end encrypted chat forum within the app. Users will also be able to send emergency notifications to team members that bypasses the Do Not Disturb feature for smartphones. In addition, the software could track team members’ equipment and training records to ensure training compliance.
The Pryme Infil Software License Agreement includes limitation of liability which requires approval from the Board of Supervisors.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Without executing the Software License Agreement, the District Attorney’s Office cannot utilize the software to improve investigative team operations.
