Are the magnet mounts listed on Pg. 4 the only type of mounts you desire? Yes. Magnet mounts attach the holder to the officer?s uniform shirt. For the ask to interface with a two-way radio, what kind/brand of radio is it? Is this a hard requirement? Department currently operates off the Motorola APEX 4000 radio system. This is not a hard requirement. Desired storage solution is cloud-only, correct? Preference is to store to the cloud. Is there any need for wi-fi/4G connected cameras to perform live viewing and/or file download from the field? If so, do you have existing data plans or would vendor also need to include data plan with offer? There is a need for WiFi/4G. City does not currently have a data plan, preference is that a data plan is included with the package. Swappable Battery Requirement: The specification calls for swappable batteries to support extended shifts. Would the City consider allowing alternate battery management approaches?such as body cameras with 12+ hour battery life, in-field charging options, or external battery packs?that meet the same goal of uninterrupted operation during long shifts without requiring battery swapping? Yes. Two-Way Radio Integration for Recording Activation: The RFP specifies the ability to interface with two-way radios to initiate recording. Would the City be open to alternative automatic activation triggers?such as weapon unholstering, light bar engagement, or foot pursuit detection?that similarly ensure reliable video capture during critical incidents? Additionally, some systems offer safeguards like pre-event buffering or automated video recovery, which can also support the City's intent for comprehensive incident documentation. Yes.
