CAD
The New Mexico Department of Public Safety is planning the replacement of
the existing Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system with an integrated CAD
and Records Management System (RMS).
CAD is one of the core systems DPS provides to the State Police and other
Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs). CAD is the system used to dispatch 911
calls out to the officers, map the call location in the dispatch center, provide
Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) for officers in the field, and provide
National Crime Information Center (NCIC) access within the application.
CAD is essential in providing rapid response from LEAs to crime/incident
scenes.
The current CAD has been in place for over
10 years, and is at end of life (vendor
support will be discontinued December 2013).

CAD / RMS
 One of the primary missions of DPS is to
support LEAs throughout the State of
New Mexico with their mission in
protecting citizens. DPS fulfills this
through a variety of means, including
access to federal and state criminal
justice data and systems, direct technical
support and providing use of the DPS
CAD system to Sierra, Valencia and
Luna Counties.
 The mission critical nature of the CAD
system, and the impending
discontinuation of vendor support,
increase the urgency of replacing CAD in
the very near future.
