STRATEGIC OUTCOME:
This agreement is in accordance with the City Council’s Connected and Engaged Strategic Outcome. The approved agreement will allow the City of Yuma to provide automated victim notifications through Versaterm’s SPIDR software platform.
REPORT:
Versaterm Public Safety US, Inc. (“Versaterm”), a public safety software and technology company, has partnered with the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission (ACJC) to provide law enforcement agencies with the software and technology needed to generate automated electronic communication with crime victims and reporting parties.
Versaterm’s SPIDR software allows law enforcement agencies to communicate with crime victims and reporting parties via automated text messages and email, providing timely notifications and information as calls for service progress from the initial call and throughout the investigation.
In addition, the SPIDR software allows agencies to gather and analyze feedback from reporting parties and crime victims regarding the service provided.
All costs for software integration and use are paid by ACJC, with no financial burden assumed by the City of Yuma.
By approving this resolution, the Mayor and City Council authorize the City of Yuma to enter into an agreement with Versaterm to deliver the specified services.
