Tasers, Body Cameras and Related Equipment and Services
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department uses tasers to restrain violent individuals when alternative restraint tactics fail, or are reasonably likely to fail, and/or where it would be unsafe for officers to approach a subject to apply restraints. A taser uses an electrical current to temporarily disrupt voluntary control of muscles causing short-term neuromuscular incapacitation.
CMPD is looking to establish a contract for the provision of Police wearable body cameras and a storage solution that shall be able to capture videos from an officer perspective in accordance with the terms, conditions and specifications contained herein. The detailed specifications contained herein shall be considered minimums. It will be the sole discretion of the City of Charlotte to select the System deemed the best overall solution for the requirements and applications of CMPD.
