Description

Design and deploy replacement of audio-visual (AV) systems in 18 South Tower courtrooms and provide two years of warranty and support with options to renew. These systems support remote hearings, assisted listening for individuals with hearing loss, translation technology for non-English speakers, and allow for electronic capture of the Court record. The system will be integrated within each room to facilitate effective communication, evidence display, and collaboration during court hearings, trials, and remote interactions.

Justification

The Circuit Court's South Tower opened in 2014 and included built in audio-visual systems in each of the 18 courtrooms. The existing support from the manufacturer and other information technology contracted resources is limited and outdated. Over the past two years, the AV systems have encountered persistent failures, exacerbated by the unavailability of replacement parts for the system. Given that 16 of the 18 courtrooms are in active use, the failing components and wiring pose a significant challenge. The court relies on the AV system to conduct multiple hearings and trials a day, and the frequent breakdowns have become a hinderance.
