Purpose

to extend the 911 system maintenance agreement

Background

The Sauk County Sheriffs’ Department, Dispatch Center provides 911 response for all of Sauk County.  The Intrado Viper System supports incoming 911 calls and provides the dispatchers with the information necessary to initiate an appropriate response.

 

The current system was installed in 2014 and included a five year maintenance agreement, which has expired and must be renewed.  Because the system is scheduled for upgrade in 2021, the vendor, Intrado Life & Safety Solutions, is recommending a two year renewal, to extend system maintenance coverage until its planned replacement.

 

This system is central to the function of the 911 response center, under the vendor’s maintenance agreement, the system is continuously monitored, limiting the risk of a substantial system outage and ensuring immediate vendor response in the event a system malfunction occurs.
