  • An assessment of all technology needs (due within two months of project start)
  • The project will begin with a kick-off meeting between the County and the Contractor(s). This will allow the Contractor(s) to meet the Department's project manager and discuss project expectations.

Contractor(s) will receive a draft template and will be expected to complete an initial draft, after which there will be four levels of review:
  • Police Technology Review: this review will involve the Department's project manager, who will assist with the additional reviews.
