Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2024, $42,651)

Funds will be used to expand the resources of the Clay County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) Technology and Analysis Division (TAD) by purchasing additional ruggedized and standard surface laptops. The rugged laptops are built tough and able to withstand harsh environments, while a regular laptop is not built for such conditions. The rugged laptops will assist during large scale call outs, storm events, search and rescue operations, and crime scenes providing the ability of support members to work with deputies and investigators and relay pertinent information in a timely manner.  The regular laptops will assist in expanding the agency’s remote work capabilities in the event the offices must close for safety concerns (i.e. pandemic, storms, etc.), allowing members to be productive from home for essential job functions.
By increasing the number of laptops, CCSO will also improve overall response time and ensure that critical operations continue without delays, ultimately boosting productivity and

effectiveness in serving the community.
