Background and Analysis:
The Olympia Police Department currently has multiple contracts with Axon Enterprise, Inc., for various equipment and services such as body-worn and in-vehicle police cameras, Tasers, digital evidence management system, software licenses, and support services.
The Department has an opportunity to bundle all existing Axon contracts into one, five-year agreement. By doing so, the Department will streamline contract management, improve procurement efficiency, and improve its technology by adding Axon Translate to its body-worn cameras and upgrading its Taser platform.
In addition, the Department will lock in current rates, shield against inflation, and ensure continuity in equipment lifecycle management and support services. It is anticipated the Department will save $267,185 over five years compared to separate contracts.
