Contra
Costa
County
Subject:3M Gogent, Inc., Modbile Indentification Software Contract
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
network of equipment and procedures allowing local law enforcement agencies direct access to the Cal-ID System.
The Contra Costa County local RAN board determines the placement of RAN equipment within the County, and
coordinates the acceptance, delivery, and installation of RAN equipment. Acting as the local RAN board, mobile
fingerprint identification hardware has been distributed to local law enforcement agencies within the County pursuant
to the criteria specified in the Penal Code.
Under the proposed contract, additional mobile fingerprint devices, software, implementation services, and software
support will be purchased so that local law enforcement agencies can connect to the Cal-ID system while in the field.
The 3M Cogent Mobile Identification (Mobile ID) solution provides a system that manages the transactions of mobile
fingerprint captures from the field. The system will manage searches of the local Automated Fingerprint
Identification System (AFIS) as well as the California Department of Justices’ (Cal-DOJ) AFIS and Federal Bureau
of Investigations’ (FBI) Repository for Individuals of Special Concern (RISC) databases. The mobile identification
devices and software bring the power of a full-scale AFIS to officers’ hands while in the field for all agencies within
Contra Costa, to provide fast, accurate identity verification, arrest records, and warrant information on subjects
contacted in the field.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the Office of the Sheriff is not allowed to contract with 3M Cogent for the Mobile ID hardware and software,
officers will not have access to quick, accurate and up to date information on subjects while out in the field. This may
lead to the release of subjects in the field that should be put into custody.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
No impact.
