Information

Agenda Item Text:

Approve Master Services Agreement with Navigate360, LLC, and the Cochise County School Superintendent for security monitoring services at all county public and charter schools, effective June 30, 2023 through June 29, 2026, in the amount of $270,768.78.

Background:

The School Safety Program, a $1,500,000 grant agreement between Arizona Department of Administration (ADOA) and Cochise County, was approved at the 5/23/23 Board of Supervisor's meeting.  The school districts have selected Navigate360 as the preferred vendor for the emergency management platform. The platform provides the following services: A panic button with a cellular 911 interface, phone app, incident management, first responder connect, PSAP integration, student/staff accountability, reunification, mapping, interactive floor plans, actionable emergency management protocols, and the ability to build and organize EMP and COOP plans. 

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

After the contract is signed: 
1. Navigate360 will come out to do interactive floor plans and mapping for all Districts and Schools. 
2. IT will work with Navigate360 to set up Emergency Management Suite technology.
3. Districts/Schools will work with Navigate360 to do a test run of the system.
4. County Sups office will work with Sheriff's Office to set-up active drills with each of the Districts/Schools.
5. Training schedule will be set-up in the districts for ALICE active shooter training.

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

If not approved, local schools, dispatch centers, and law enforcement will face the same communication issues that were experienced in past critical incidents. This will  place everyone in greater danger because there is not a mechanism in place that allows everyone to pass information to each other in quickly evolving situations.

To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:

After the "Standard Addendum" document is signed by the Board Chair, please return one original to the County Schools Office.
