Consideration of extending AXON™ contract two additional years (2028 - 2029) at the 2022 pricing agreement while including additional features and products.  Upgrade Taser technology to the newest and most effective Taser.  Upgrade Interview rooms in new building.

To provide a clear financial outlook, we have conducted an analysis of potential cost increases for the 2027 contract renewal. Historical data and market trends indicate an approximate average annual price increase of 4-7% for similar contracts. Without the proposed extension, our costs could escalate by approximately 30% compared to the current agreement.

In conjunction with the contract extension, we propose upgrading our current inventory of Taser 7 units to the advanced Taser 10 model. This upgrade is pivotal for enhancing community and officer safety and operational efficiency, and it also presents a unique opportunity for cost savings due to a special one-time offer from Axon.

On July 18th, 2023, City Council approved an increase in the Police Department’s Axon contract amount to cover many future-ready products (5G technology), cost reduction measures, enhanced security, disaster recovery and business continuity (cloud data storage).  Currently, the Police Department is requesting City Council approval to extend the Axon contract which includes improved technology and additional products and features.

§                     Benefits: Improved performance metrics, enhanced safety features, and substantial cost reductions under the current promotional offer provided by Axon.

We firmly believe that extending our current contract by two years at the 2022 pricing level, combined with the upgrade to the Taser 10 model and the inclusion of additional concessions, represents a strategic decision that is aligned with our organizational goals of maintaining operational excellence, advancing officer safety standards, and optimizing fiscal responsibility.
