The New Port Richey Police Department is a professional police agency dedicated to protecting,
serving, and enhancing the quality of life within our community. As part of our commitment to
maintaining ambitious standards of professionalism and accountability, we seek to continue
purchasing items from the approved United States Department of Justic (USDOJ) grant to enhance
the agency’s ability to combat and solve violent crime.
The New Port Richey Police Department seeks to provide a fair and open bidding process to
purchase a 3D crime scene mapper from available sources at the best rate the city can obtain. The
3D crime scene mapper will greatly enhance our agency’s ability to process complex crime scenes

expeditious manner by utilizing enhanced crime scene processing technologies.
Key needs for the 3D mapper:

similar technology.
The ideal equipment would contain ALL the following:
• Be able to scan and measure a room, space, and outdoor area in 3D.
• Have accompanied software to develop and map the scans.
• Be waterproof and operate in poor weather conditions - including temperature changes and
humidity swings.
• Ability to scan in under 20 minutes per scan.
• Be self-leveling.
• Have no requirement for continued calibration from the vendor or outside 3rd party
company.
• Have a high sensitivity mode.
• Be able to scan and build a map in 3D for both traffic homicides and crime scenes in one
package.
• Have Geofencing tools and abilities.
• Be able to provide an on-board diagnostic report.
• Be able to produce a field calibration report.
• The manufacturer or approved vendor must provide training in house for both crime scene
users and traffic homicide users.
• Be based in the US or be approved to sell in the US, and not be suspended from the DOJ
or other federal agency to provide services or equipment.
