FY27 - Software & Communication System

The Colorado Department of Public Safety/Colorado Bureau of Investigation is seeking to procure software and communication systems from National Law Enforcement Telecommunications Systems, Inc. (NLETS). The system will provide 24/7 law enforcement access to the Colorado Crime Information Center (CCIC) and other state criminal information systems. The procurement is justified as a sole source because NLETS is the only provider of CJIS-compliant networking, message switching, and software for intercommunication for State CJIS systems. • The system will provide access to criminal information systems in every other US state, territorial possessions, Canada, and Interpol. • The system is designed to use NLETS transaction structures to communicate between CCIC and other state CJIS systems. • The estimated cost of the procurement is $243,169.29. • The approval period is from 07/01/26 to 06/30/28.
