3D Crime Scene Scanner

SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
The Police Department is in need of a crime scene mapping system for use at major crimes and
traffic collisions. The Faro 120, 3D Scanner has been selected as the preferred system. The
Faro is only available from Faro Technologies, therefore, it is not possible to get competitive bids
for the system. In addition, the Department has made arrangements to purchase a Faro 120
demo model, thereby saving almost $15,000.

RESOLUTION NO. R- 2016 —
A RESOLUTION authorizing the sole source and purchase of a Faro Focus 120, 3D
Scanner, crime scene mapping system.
WHEREAS, Article VI, Section 6 of the City of Yakima Charter and the Yakima Municipal
Code Chapter 1.80 generally require that purchases in excess of $25,000 be done by
competitive bid, subject to certain exceptions; and
WHEREAS, the law recognizes a "sole source purchase" exception from bidding
requirements, when due to the uniqueness of the product to be purchased and the fact there is
only one source for the product, it would be futile to utilize competitive bidding; and
WHEREAS, the Yakima Police Department has a need to have modern, sophisticated, 3D
crime scene mapping capability; and
WHEREAS, Police, Forensics and Information Technology staff have researched and
determined that the Faro Focus 120, 3D Scanner system best suits the needs of the Police
Department; and
WHEREAS, Faro Technologies, located in Lake Mary, Florida, possess the unique and
singularly available capability to meet the requirements of the sole source purchase and is the
only authorized Faro representative to sell, install and service proprietary Faro Technology, Inc.
Systems; and
WHEREAS, the Police Department has made special arrangement to purchase a demo
model Faro Focus 120, 3D scanner at a savings of $14,990; and
WHEREAS, the Yakima City Council finds it to be in the best interest of the City to
authorize the purchase of the Faro Focus 120, 3D as a sole source purchase without calling for
bids; now, therefore
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF YAKIMA:
The City Manager of the City of Yakima is hereby authorized to purchase the Faro Focus 120,
3D Scanner and associated hardware and software as a sole source purchase without calling
for bids.
ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL this 21st day of June, 2016.

To whom it may concern,
This letter identifies FARO Technologies, Inc., a Florida corporation ( "FARO Technologies" or "FARO "), as the sole developer and
manufacturer of the FOCUS31D S Series and FOCUS31D X Series of Laser Scanners and SCENE" software. FARO is also the sole
provider of hardware service, warranty, maintenance, annual calibration, and FARO Certified train the trainer programs. FARO
is also the sole source for its GSA product pricing for the above services.
FARO Technologies was founded in 1981 and has quickly become a global leader in the manufacture of 3D measurement
technology. FARO Technologies is headquartered in Lake Mary, Florida, its European regional headquarters in Stuttgart,
Germany and its Asia /Pacific regional headquarters in Singapore. FARO has branches in Brazil, Mexico, Germany, United
Kingdom, France, Spain, Italy, Poland, Netherlands, India, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand and Japan.
Unique to the FOCUS31D S Series and FOCUS31D X Series of Laser Scanners is the "self- leveling" feature offered by the on -board
inclinometer. This sensor can reduce officer documentation time by 20 -30min for each station move when scanning a scene as
they don't need to level the instrument like a standard total station or other laser scanners. This can save considerable time and
reduce possible road closure times.
As the world's most trusted source for 3D measurement, imaging and realization technology, FARO Technologies develops and
markets computer -aided measurement and imaging devices and software. Technology from FARO permits high - precision 3D
measurement, imaging and comparison of parts and compound structures within production and quality assurance processes.
The devices are used for inspecting, planning and documenting large volume spaces or structures in 3D, as well as for law
enforcement, forensics, accident reconstruction, crime scene investigation, bullet trajectory, bloodstain pattern analysis and
bomb -blast sites.
With increased ranges and scan quality, the Focus3D X 330 and X 130 considerably reduces the effort involved in measuring and
post - processing. The 3D scan data can easily be imported into all commonly used software solutions for accident
reconstruction, architecture, civil engineering, construction, forensics, industrial manufacturing and land surveying. Distance
dimensions, area and volume calculations, analysis and inspection tasks and documentation can thus be carried out quickly,
precisely and reliably. Additionally, the X 330 offers a range almost 3X greater than previous models; the Focus3D X 330 can
scan objects up to 330 meters away and in direct sunlight. With its integrated GPS receiver, the laser scanner is able to
correlate individual scans in post - processing making it ideal for forensic, law enforcement and surveying based applications.
FARO'S competitive advantage is the lightweight, affordable, precise technology delivered with each 3D laser scanning product.
With FARO Technologies products, our customers are making an investment for future projects with unsurpassed cost - value, a
major advantage when looking for the most cutting -edge technology that gets you the right results in an age of limited
resources. With hundreds of thousands of units sold worldwide and customers around the globe, our products have been
reliably measuring success throughout the world. Our forensic customers include the Department of Defense, the federal
government, various intelligence organizations, the military, and law enforcement divisions.
