The old DCI Predator devices have reached their end- of-life and need to be replaced. The Fire Department also has the need for additional MDC devices, Vehicular Radio Modems (VRMs}, and Global Positioning Satellite {CPS) devices to install into new vehicles. Fire Department staff, in conjunction with IT Solutions staff, evaluated the MDC Motorola Model MW800 devices that were installed in Police, Municipal Courts, and Code Compliance vehicles. After the evaluation was completed, it was determined that the MDC Motorola Model MW800 devices would be the solution to meet the needs of the Fire Department. The devices will replace the DCI Predator devices that are currently being used by the Fire Department. The devices will be installed in 108 vehicles and Fire will purchase 10 units to provide backup for possible failed devices. The backup devices allow far a quick exchange process for failed devices. The exchange process wi11 minimize the amount of time a Fire apparatus is out of service. The Fire Department will benefit from the discounted pricing offered by Motorola far the June 2005 purchase. The purchase of a same device type currently in use with Police, Municipal Courts, and Code Compliance also makes it easier for bath the vendor and City staff to provide user support. The cost of each MDC with mounting hardware is approximately $5,652.00. The cost per new vehicle for the VRM and GPS devices is approximately $2,500.00. The plan is to begin installation of the MDC's as quickly as scheduling will allow. It is anticipated that the installation could be completed by the end of July. The Fire Department received funds in FY 2005-06 to address the issue of replacing the MDCs in Fire vehicles. The equipment will be paid far by the Fire Department over athree-year time period using the Logname: I3Pfl4-0230C2 Page 1 0~2 City's inter-fund lawn.
