BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Assembly Bill 109 (“AB109”) reports that will be a module of ARIES (the “AB 109 Module”).
Synesis Inc., will provide computer programming services that will result in the AB 109 Module, which will be able
to produce reports, maps, charts and consolidated data sheets with the functionality described in this Service Plan,
and as specified by County. The purpose of the AB 109 Module is to provide a means for ARIES users to analyze the
impacts, and identify crime patterns of inmates released under the guidelines of AB 109. The AB 109 Module will
produce reports, maps, and charts depicting AB 109 data for specific neighborhoods, cities, and counties for specified
time frames. The reports generated by the AB 109 Module will be searchable back to October 1, 2011, which is the
implementation date of AB109 , and be able to produce trend charts. The AB 109 Module will provide ARIES users
with reports to answer questions regarding individuals serving probation under the guidelines of AB 109, and as
otherwise defined by County (“AB 109 Probationers”) for a selected time frame.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Negative action will result in the Office of the Sheriff not having quick up to date information on inmates released
