Discussion: PredPol is a computerized crime analysis tool that utilizes patent-pending technology to forecast the highest risk times and places for future crimes. It is a tool to increase the odds of stopping crime, and is a technology that can be utilized by jurisdictions of any size. In contrast to technology that simply maps past crime data, PredPol applies advanced mathematics and adaptive computer learning to predict future crime. It complements officers' intuition by identifying target areas as small as 500' by 500'. In 6 month randomized controlled trials, PredPol predicted twice as much crime as experienced crime analysts. When implemented by the Los Angeles Police Department Foothill Division, crimes were down 13% in the 4 months following the rollout compared to an increase of 0.4% in the rest of the city where the rollout had not happened. Over this time period Foothill Division was a leader in crime rate reduction among LAPD's divisions. Similar reductions have been seen in other cities that implemented the tool. This program first came to the attention of Lt. Tom Alexander, PhD who, after realizing it's potential, presented it to the Police Department command staff. After additional discussion with the company and a demonstration using HPD crime data, staff unanimously agreed this would be an extremely valuable resource that will improve our management of available law enforcement resources while responding to public demand for crime prevention and reduction. Financial Impact: The initial cost of $18,000 wll be funded through the COPS Technology Grant (2010-CKWX-0503). The program is sold directly from one company which will make this a sole source purchase. Annual licensing, which includes all maintenance and software updates, will be $15,000 and will be part of the Police Department's annual operating budget. Recommendation: Motion: Action Dates: ATTACHMENTS: Name: Description: Hagerstown_Predictive_Policing_Term_Sheet_Proposal_(2013-11-06).pdf PredPol Price Quote PredPol_Agenda_Form.pdf PredPol Agenda Form PROPOSED TERMS for PREDICTIVE POLICING SOFTWARE HAGERSTOWN, MARYLAND November 6, 2013 PredPol is glad to be talking with you on innovative and field-tested technologies to decrease crime in Hagerstown. 1. Financial Parameters: a. The annual software subscription price for Hagerstown is $15,000 per year before discounts. There is also a one-time $3,000 set up fee. b. There are no new hardware or hiring requirements, no ongoing training and support costs, and no limits on the number of users. c. The subscription price is good for three years, with the fee due annually and no re-subscription obligation implied. 2. Non-Financial Parameters: Hagerstown agrees to reasonably support PredPol’s deployment and development by doing the following during the term of this Agreement: a. Deploy and utilize the PredPol tool and the intelligence it generates; b. Generally support the deployment of the PredPol tool and any new features/tools, including providing user feedback, as requested by PredPol; c. Provide access to relevant databases and shared databases to which the City has access, pursuant to all applicable laws and access agreements; CONTACT: Donnie Fowler / donnie@predpol.com / 415-902-4720 cell 1 | CONFIDENTIAL SERVICES The Company: PredPol, the predictive policing company, provides high-precision, micro-place predictions for where and when crime is most likely to occur. This includes property crime, gun violence, gang activity, and traffic accidents. PredPol’s cloud based software-as-a-service (SaaS) has been deployed for several dozen U.S. and international law enforcement agencies, but also accurately predicts a variety of other incidents, including IED and terrorist activity in an active theater. Problem Addressed: Law enforcement agencies face tight budgets and hiring limits. Over the last decade, they have been asked to do more with less, forcing them to allocate resources more efficiently. PredPol’s proven patent-pending prediction technology, developed by cops for cops, provides automated predictions by time of day that command staff, analysts, and line level officers can use to focus their time and effort. PredPol’s accuracy and crime reducing effects have both been proven in studies with the Los Angeles Police Department and with the Kent (England) Police and with deployments in dozens of agencies worldwide. The Service: PredPol’s product is its patent-pending crime prediction software that includes PredPol’s cloud applications, PredPol’s secure data pipe applications, and any other crime-related applications that may be provided by PredPol from time to time. Part of this technology is provided by PredPol under an exclusive license from Santa Clara University in Santa Clara, California, while other aspects of the technology were created by PredPol itself. PredPol’s predictive tool integrates seamlessly with police RMS/CAD crime data systems and updates automatically as an agency updates its records. It is accessible by printing results on paper and through any internet-connected device, whether desktop, laptop, tablet, smartphone, or in-car mobile data terminal. PredPol’s API integrates with RMS/CAD systems, as well as any existing agency application, such as 2 | CONFIDENTIAL data warehouse browser, mapping technology, or analytic dashboard. In other words, it is platform neutral. Scope of Work: PredPol shall provide services, resources, and tools to support a successful implementation of a proprietary, patent pending SaaS application that supports Hagerstown’s efforts to predict, deter, and reduce crime. The scope of work will include the following:  Setup of and integration of the PredPol tool into Hagerstown’s existing RMS/CAD/Data system. Timeline for setup dependent upon grant of access by Hagerstown to PredPol’s technician for installation of the data pipeline.  Installation of a data pipe from Hagerstown to the PredPol SaaS. Frequency of data update (daily, hourly, every few minutes) is dependent on the degree of access granted to PredPol to stream data provided by Hagerstown.  Provide electronic transfer of 500’ x 500’ predictive locations (latitude and longitude data) identified by PredPol.com to Hagerstown for electronic consumption by Hagerstown’s computer systems. The details of the data exchange will be determined through conversations with Hagerstown’s information technology staff and depend on Hagerstown’s existing RMS/CAD/Data system and its existing mapping technology, if any.  Access to 3, 7, 14 and 28 day historical crime mapping for crime types that Hagerstown wishes the tool to predict.  Provide Command, Analysts and Supervisors with best practices guidance  Provide tools that track the effectiveness of predictive boxes and police patrols on crime levels in Hagerstown.  Full access to the tool, including unlimited prediction views, refreshes, and report generation.  Provide phone, online, and email support for technical and operational use.  Inclusion of feature updates as added during the subscription. --- 3 | CONFIDENTIAL REQUIRED MOTION MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL HAGERSTOWN, MARYLAND Topic: Water Division Consent Item Repair Request for the Geiger Pump High Service 5 Mayor and City Council Action Requested: Requested approval of the Water Division Consent Item Repair Request for the Geiger Pump High Service 5 in the amount of $22,400.
