Subject:
Information Technology in conjunction with the Planning and Development Department has been
reviewing an upgrade to the CityView Application. CityView is the primary application used by
Planning and Development for interaction with Augusta's citizens and customers.
The current version of CityView is in need of an upgrade to a web-based platform that will enhance
productivity, increase efficiency, provide for better reporting capabilities, and set the stage for future
public-facing services and enhancements.
I've attached the proposal from CityView (Harris Computer Corporation, Inc.) for this project, and it
includes a significant number of hours dedicated to training and reporting enhancements that will
further ensure the enhanced capabilities of this upgrade are realized by Planning and Development.
The total cost of this upgrade is $77,850 for the first year to be funded from the SPLOST V Software
Allocation funds. I am sending this request through Procurement for sole-source authorization prior to
sending it to Com
only vendor capable of completing this upgrade as they are the creator of this software application.
Thank you

Approve Zero-Dollar Change Order with Motorola Solutions, Inc. for the WatchGuard Interview
Room Recording Solution
Department:Information Technology
Presenter:Reggie Horne, Deputy CIO
Caption:Approve Zero-Dollar Change Order with Motorola Solutions,
Inc. for the WatchGuard Interview Room Recording Solution.
Background:On December 4, 2018, the Augusta, Georgia Commission
approved a contract with Motorola Solutions, Inc. to implement
an Interview Room Recording and Digital Evidence
Management System for the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office
(RFP #18-231). Since the implementation of that original system
in early 2019, Motorola Solutions has acquired Watchguard, Inc.
which is an industry leader in Public Safety Video Solutions.
Analysis:The original Avigilon system installed by Motorola was a
customized solution unique to the Richmond County Sheriff’s
Office. Over the last 2 years, it has become apparent that the
original system could not serve to meet the long-term needs of
the Sheriff’s Office as it related Interview Room Recording and
the Digital Evidence Management of those recordings. With this
change order, Motorola Solutions will be replacing the Avigilon
system and implementing a WatchGuard system with all
associated peripherals in 12 interview rooms at 3 separate
locations at no additional cost to Augusta. This solution will
serve to meet the long-term needs of the RCSO as it relates to
Interview Recording and Evidence Management.
Financial Impact:There is no financial impact for this change order.
Alternatives:Leave the current system in place.
Recommendation:Approve Zero-Dollar Change Order with Motorola Solutions,
Inc. for the WatchGuard Interview Room Recording Solution.
