BACKGROUND
With the assistance of a grant from the Governor’s Crime Commission (GCC), the Sheriff’s Office is able to purchase six APX4500 remote mount radios with software and accessories. This will improve the interoperability across law enforcement agencies, first responders, and emergency management services.
In order to ensure standardization and compatibility with the existing radios, the Sheriff’s Office requested and received sole source approval from the granting agency (GCC). The Gaston County Uniform Guidance Policy & Procedures requires the approval of a sole source contract when the cost is above the micro-purchasing threshold ($10,000). Approval of this Board Action authorizes staff to proceed with the sole source purchase from Motorola Solutions.
