Subject: Surplus/Trade of Computer Voice Stress Analyzer
Background Summary:
The Police Department currently owns a 2013 Dell Model laptop computer voice stress analyzer (CVSA) that
was purchased from NITV Federal Services LLC. This CVSA laptop computer has reached the end of
serviceable life. NITV Federal Services is offering the Police Department to trade in the 2013 Dell Model CVSA
and receive the most current updated CVSA III Dell Rugged 14 Model Series for the discounted price of$4,995.
NITV only offers their proprietary software on a laptop computer purchased with the software installed. The
current price of the CVSA III without the trade-in is currently $9,995, therefore providing the Police Department
a cost savings of$5,000.
The Police Department utilizes the CVSA as an investigative tool during case investigations and can be
instrumental in assisting the Department investigating criminal cases.
The Police Department is requesting the City Commission approve the surplus/trade the 2013 Dell Model
Computer Voice Stress Analyzer (Service Tag # 8J4XNX1) to purchase and receive the current CVSA III Dell
Rugged 14 Model for a price of$4,995.
Issue:
Should the Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners authorize the Police Department to trade-in its
2013 CVSA model in exchange for receiving a $5,000 savings off the purchase of the most current CVSA III
model?
Recommendations:
Staff recommends the Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners authorize the Police Department to
trade-in its 2013 CVSA model in exchange for receiving a $5,000 savings off the purchase of the most current
CVSA III model.
Attachments:
CVSA III sales brochure and sales estimate for trade-in.
Financial Impact:
Authorizing the trade-in of the current CVSA model would allow the purchase of the most current CVSA III
model at a cost saving of $5,000 to the Police Department's equipment budget. The Police Department has
funding within its FY 2020/2021 budget to pay for the new CVSA laptop computer.

CVSA°III Instrument
The CVSA Ill Instrument is only sold to law enforcement, military and
government end users.
NITV Federal Services is pleased to announce as of January 2019 orders are
being accepted for the new CVSA Ill, the most advanced voice stress analysis
instrument in the world.
The CVSA III Instrument is housed in a custom configured MILSPEC Dell Rugged 14
designed for Law Enforcement and Military applications. With the CVSA III there
is no need to customize or pay extra for the most versatile VSA system available
on the market today.
The new CVSA III Instrument is the only VSA system in the world featuring a
custom Windows 10 Operating System developed specifically for the CVSA to
meet the demanding operational and security needs of our clients. The CVSA III's
custom Operating System is certified and licensed by Microsoft, and factory
installed by Dell.
• Due to its custom Windows OS, Microsoft classifies the CVSA III system as an
"instrument," not a commercial notebook computer containing "off-the-shelf"
VSA software.
• With the new CVSA Windows 10 OS there is no concern about CVSA data being
inadvertently transferred to the cloud—unlike other VSA systems that use
consumer-grade Windows 10 Operating Systems.
• The new CVSA Windows 10 OS is designed to provide the longest-term and most
stable Windows 10 Operating System available. Microsoft pledges a minimum of
10 years support for this OS.
The CVSA III incorporates familiar User Interfaces all CVSA Examiners have been
trained and certified to use —there is no need for additional training.
The CVSA III system has been completely modernized and upgraded by our US
Engineering and Software Development Team for ease-of-use, increased system
performance, reliability, precision, accuracy and security.
The FACT® scoring system, now the FACT® Plus, has been upgraded using
machine learning algorithms to provide the highest-level of scoring precision
available from any VSA system in the world.
The new CVSA III features instantaneous voice graphing—eliminating intermittent
graph lag that exists in consumer-grade VSA systems.
The new CVSA III features enhanced system stability— meaning virtually no need
for technical support.
The new CVSA III features multiple language options for worldwide operations.
The new CVSA III features world class security— including a specialized security
key, which is available upon request when extra protection is required. (Available
for a nominal fee.)
The new CVSA III Instrument contains many other upgrades to ensure ease of
operation by all examiners, both new and seasoned.
The CVSA®has been technically and scientifically proven to be the most
accurate VSA system in the world. The CVSA Ill Instrument is the
Truth Verification solution for the 21' Century!

• The FACT® Scoring System has been enhanced with a new evaluation process that
provides an on-screen advisement when high-tendency patterns are detected as
the highest score for R/IR pairs at the conclusion of Chart 2. The 'High Tendency
Advisement' directs Examiners' attention to such results and recommends specific
follow-up actions.
• A printer icon has been embedded in the lower left side of the 'Questions' screen,
which allows for the immediate printing of questions after they have been entered.
• The 'Questions' screen now has auto-expanding question fields, which allows for
entering longer questions required by some examiners.
• All printing functions have been updated and modernized, including the 'Print
Charts' and 'Print Questions' functions.
• The 'Report' function has been updated and modernized for ease of use.
• The full text of longer questions now appears in the 'Zoom' view for individual
patterns.
• The transition from Chart 2 to Chart 3 has been simplified by means of on-screen
guidance dialogs, which appear if an examiner fails to follow required procedures.
• The CVSA III's custom WIN10 Operating System has been updated.
• The CVSA III's security has been updated.
