5.2. SR 06-25-2001Item ~ 5.2. City ~ ~iV~l" Police Department MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor & City Council FROM: Assistant Chief Jeffrey Beahen DATE: 06-14-01 SUBJECT: Computer Upgrades The police department has recently received information from our software vendor of an impending upgrade to our records management system. This upgrade is part of the scheduled maintenance and software improvements that we pay for in our annual maintenance fees. The upgrades will vastly improve the overall operating efficiency of the entire police information systems. To prepare for this migration we were asked to inventory our current computers and report back to our provider on the readiness of our network. The upgrade requires that all workstations be capable of working with Microsoft SQL Server version 7.0. The major requirement for working with this operating system is that each computer must have an operating system that is either Windows NT 4.0 or greater or Windows 2000. Neither Windows 95 nor Windows 98 will work with the new database. The second.requirement is that the computer must have a minimum of 128mb of RAM. The third requirement is that the processor speed on each workstation be at a minimum, at the level of a Pentium III at 500 mhz. The migration to the upgraded software cannot be accomplished until the computers we currently have are upgraded to the minimal requirements or replaced with computers that meet the standards. In addition, we have recently completed the initial phase of changing over our connection with the State of Minnesota. This connection will be finalized at the end of June. This connection changed from a standard 56K LU or standard phone/data line connection, to a TCP/IP connection. This latest connection is provided by the State to all Law Enforcement Agencies in the State. All are required to use this connection, as the old connection will be terminated as of July Ist 2001. The State has provided a workstation for us to use with this new connection, but again the newer technology requires a higher operating speed and memory on the computer to run. We currently have two computers that meet the hardware criteria for the new State and software configurations. Basically, technology has surpassed the capacity of our employee's workstations. Scott Allen, the IS Coordinator for the City assisted in reviewing all workstations that do not meet the technical requirements provided. It was learned that of the eighteen (18) workstations currently at the department, eight 18) could be upgraded while ten (10) should be replaced. The reason the ten can't be upgraded is that the upgrades would require that the processor, memory and operating systems all be replaced. The cost of that would almost exceed the cost of a new computer and would not be cost effective. Most of these ten have processors with operating speeds of 233mhz or less. The eight that can be upgraded can be upgraded very reasonably. The cost for those would be: Memory: 3 - Compaq upgrades @ $42.40 each 6 -IBM memory upgrades @ $39.71 each 8 - Windows 2000 upgrades @ $180.00 each $127.20 $238.26 $1,440.00 Total for upgrades: $1,805.46 The remaining computers that would be replaced would be replaced with new Dell Optiplex GX400 workstations that have a Pentium 4 Processor at 1.4 ghz, 128mb RAM and have Windows 2000 installed. Six of these will need new monitors with them. Four have newer monitors that do not need replacing. The cost for the systems is: 6 - Optiplez GX400 w/monitor @ $1,193.09 4 - Optiplex GX400 no monitor @ 1,055.84 $7,158.54 $4,223.36 The total price for the entire migration is' $13,187.36 It should be noted that all new workstations would be upgradeable which eliminates similar problems in the next 4-5 years. The police department is requesting funding be made available to purchase the above needed equipment through State Contract #92- 00151. Respectfully submitted by: Jeffrey A.
