RECOMMENDED ACTION:
City Council adopt Resolution No.2006-329 accepting the FY 06 Bureau of Justice
Award, appropriating the funds in support of law enforcement functions, and accepting the bid
from Advanced Interactive Systems for purchase of computer-based firearms training system in
compliance with grant.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
Carlsbad Police Department has been awarded an FY 2006 Bureau of Justice Congressionally
Mandated Award in the amount of $98,763. This Congressional Mandate has been earmarked for
law enforcement technology and the department has selected a computer-based firearms training
simulator.
While firearms simulators do not replace traditional, live-fire training, these systems allow officers
to face real-world scenarios, practice force options, and review tactics and options. The firearms
training simulator is a relatively mobile system. When a permanent firearms training location is
finalized, the firearms training simulator will be retained and will become an integralpart of the
overall training program. There are only two companies that manufacture computer-based
firearms simulators. The bid from Advanced Interactive Systems ($91,766) was not only the
lowest cost but also best met the needs of the department.
FISCAL IMPACT:
All costs for this equipment are fully funded through the FY 06 Bureau of Justice Award.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
None
EXHIBITS:
1. Resolution No. 2006-329 accepting the FY 06 Bureau of Justice Award, appropriating
