Procurement Contracting Manager:
Yadissa Calderon
Background:
This market research is being conducted for the purchase of fifty (50) Axon Flex Cameras for the City of Miami's
Police Department (Police). The cameras, which are identical to the ones purchased February 2, 2014, and are
currently worn by the Officers, would be compatible with the back -end digital evidence management system
(www.evidence.com) that is currently in place. Axon Flex Cameras have the following features:
a) Video playback on mobile devices in the field via Bluetooth pairing;
b) Audio tones to alert user of usage;
c) Computer is not necessary to securely upload data to www.evidence.com;
d) Cost effective;
e) Camera can be mounted on head, shoulder, glasses, hat or helmet;
f) As opposed to the other body worn cameras (BWC) Axon Rex has a 12 hour recording life; and
g) Wireless, connects to Smartphones with free app for video playback.
Research Conducted:
Market research was conducted by Procurement staff to source the industry, identify potential bidders, and
analyze the cost of acquiring an approved system to meet the needs of Police. Internet searches were
conducted as an alternate source. Within the last couple of years many manufacturers have started selling BWC
as the demand increases. However, with all the competition, manufacturers need to find ways to differentiate
themselves technologically speaking, as with Taser International, Inc. (Taser) leading the way.
The market research conducted resulted in multiple BWC Manufacturers; however, Taser is the only
manufacturer of the BWC's with the features and other benefits that Police requires. The following are the
findings of the research:
1) Body Cam by Pro -Vision: www.bodycemeras.com. Manufactures of BWC, however, the cameras
require connection to a computer for downloading data and recharging.
2) Wolfcom: www.woifcomusa.com. Manufacturer of BWC and is a new player in the world of BWC.
3) Digital AIIy, Inc.: digitalallyinc.com. Manufacturer of BWC, however, the cameras are expensive.
4) Safety Innovations: www.vidmic.com. Manufacturer of BWC and marries 'BWC with radio mic, but does
not offer another distinction.
5) Taser International, Inc.: www.TASER.COM/AxonFlex.com. The premier manufacturer of BWC,
differentiates themselves from their competitors with features like 30 second buffering, dock and walk at
end of shift, mobile and automatic activation.
Comparable Contracts: The City of Miami Police Department currently utilizes the Axon Flex Body Cameras
to protect both the employees and the citizens. Other agencies such as Wichita Police (KS) recently purchased
429 Axon Flex Cameras, Brownsville Police Department (TX) purchased 140 Axon Body Cameras and Parker
Police Department (CO) purchased 59 Axon Body Cameras.
Recommendation:
A sole source procurement with Taser is in the best interest of the City based on these findings and the
performance of the existing body Axon Flex cameras worn by current City of Miami officers.
