Title
32. Motion to Renew Annual Contract for Polygraph Testing Services for Savannah Police Department with Southeastern Resolution Group, LLC (Event No. 5411)
Strategic Priority
Public Safety
Description

Recommend approval to renew an annual contract for polygraph testing services to Southeastern Resolution Group, LLC in the amount of $52,500.00.  This contract will be used by the Savannah Police Department to polygraph test candidates in consideration for the position of sworn police officer/police officer trainee.  It has been documented that the polygraph examination is highly useful in the applicant investigation process as it deters those seeking to penetrate law enforcement departments as well as the submission of false/incomplete information by applicants.  While notifications were originally sent to all known suppliers, only one bid was received.

Bids were originally received on October 17, 2017. Council originally approved this contract on January 18, 2018 in the amount of $52,500.00.  This is the first of four available renewal options. 

This contract term shall be from January 3, 2019 through December 31, 2019.
