Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
This ordinance authorizes the Mayor to enter into an agreement with Fusus, Inc for a three-year subscription to Fusus Enterprise Package. The Fusus Enterprise Package extracts and unifies live video, data and sensor feeds from virtually any source, enhancing the situational awareness and investigative capabilities of law enforcement agencies.
Fusus is the only manufacturer that builds a common operating platform that does not require a complete replacement of video cameras, recorders, servers, or network equipment at video sharing locations and will work with existing systems and equipment.
