Body
Issue/Request:
An Ordinance Authorizing the execution of a sole source agreement between the City of Lee's Summit, Missouri and Idemia Identity and Security USA, LLC, in the amount of $52,736.00 for the use of two LiveScan Systems.
Background/ Key Issues:
The City of Lee's Summit Police Department (“LSPD”) has two LiveScan systems that it uses to take fingerprints. The systems are currently maintained by Morpho Trak, LLC through June 30, 2019. In 2018, the LSPD was notified that Morpho Trak, LLC was being bought out by Idemia Identity and Security USA LLC (“Idemia”) and that Idemnia would not provide maintenance services to the City’s existing LiveScan system after the City’s contract expires on June 30, 2019. In order to stay compliant with Missouri statutes regarding criminal history and fingerprinting, the City needs to update the equipment.
The City wishes to enter into a sole source agreement with Idemia to purchase services to install two new ELSA LiveScan systems to replace the City’s current systems. Under the Agreement, Idemia will lease two new LiveScan systems to the LSPD for a five-year term and provide maintenance and support services for the new systems. By moving to the new system, the City will stay compliant with all state and FBI mandated changes regarding software operating system, support, and functionality.
Idemia is the leader in the automated fingerprint identification system. The proposed Agreement qualifies as a sole source agreement because, by the nature of the proprietary hardware and software components and the overall system design, Idemia is the only current provider of fingerprint identification system that is specifically designed to work with the existing Missouri Highway Patrol automated fingerprint identification system.
Impact/Analysis:
The Agreement has a five-year term, and the total cost for the duration of the contract term is $52,736.00. After the fire-year term, the City will have the option to renew the agreement, allow it to expire, or purchase the systems outright
Proposed City Council Motion:
FIRST MOTION: I move for second reading of an Ordinance Authorizing the execution of a sole source agreement between the City of Lee's Summit, Missouri and Idemia Identity and Security USA, LLC, in the amount of $52,736.00 for the use of two LiveScan systems.
SECOND MOTION: I move for adoption of an Ordinance Authorizing the execution of a sole source agreement between the City of Lee's Summit, Missouri and Idemia Identity and Security USA, LLC, in the amount of $52,736.00 for the use of two LiveScan systems.
