technologies in the pursuit of better service to the public and increased safety. Computer usage within the
department has grown from one computer per station 20 year ago, to nearly one computer per employee
today. Currently HFD has over 300 computers in active service, and is has adopted a variety of tech
programs and processes specific to the department for which direct IT support is needed.
Programs/Processes for which tech support is needed: Spillman CAD system, Motorola Radio Software,
Motorola Radio Programming Software, Bryx 911 Application, Pulse Point, Tradegecko, Mobile Data
Terminals, GPS Tracking systems, GIS data, ARC GIS mapping integration, Everbridge, Target Solutions,

The Fire Department's IT needs are very similar to the Police department which currently has three to four IT
staff and clerk assistance. Position expansion is supported by Scott Uehara Director of County IT who
recommended two IT positions be added to the Fire Department.
