RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING AN AGREEMENT WITH ANDE CORP.

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-06-16 · resolution

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners adopted a resolution authorizing the negotiation of an agreement with ANDE Corporation to purchase three ANDE Rapid DNA Systems. The county will also apply for and receive grant funds from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement totaling approximately $7,903,270.00 to cover the cost of these systems, which include booking devices, installation, training, consumables, and a five-year warranty. The systems are intended for deployment in the Miami-Dade Corrections and Rehabilitation Department's Intake and Release Bureau to expedite identity confirmation of individuals in custody, potentially matching them to unsolved cases and improving law enforcement operations. The resolution waives a previous requirement regarding agreement execution.
