The proposed OPD timeline is very optimistic, and contract issues
with Sierra Systems are sfill preventing contract signing. Failure to
reach agreement on this contract will substantially delay the process.
COMPLIANCE DIRECTOR'S FINDINGS AND ACTION ITEMS:
One of the recurring themes throughout the remaining non-compliant
issues is the City's/OPD's acquisition and integration of new
technologies. There are three main areas of concern: (1) the radio
system, (2) The Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) system, and the
integrated Stop Data program, and (3) the PAS system acquisition
and use. During the next month my office will be looking to identify a
subject matter expert that has strengths across the wide range of
issues from system design and contracting to specific hardware and
software issues to help us through these complex and interwoven
issues.
The City has been in lingering negotiations with Sierra Systems for
the design of the new IPAS system for well over a year. We will work
with the city to develop a reasonable decision date for the Sierra
negotiations. If no contract is negotiated by that date, we will press
the City to cease these efforts and begin talks with an alternate
vendor.
Bring Task 41: Use of Personnel Assessment System (PAS),
into compliance.

the threshold analyses that were performed for the period of July 1,
through September 30, 2012. This included a review of peer-based
