Issue: Our Dell tablets assigned to staff have exceeded the available warranty are experiencing Mother Board malfunctions. The recommendation from the I.T. department and from a local independent computer service technician determine that the units need to be replaced. These tablets are an essential part of our departments daily operations.
Solution: On or about September 23, 2019, commissioners court approved the purchase of 7 Microsoft Surface Pro 6 tablets, software and licenses. No funding source was mentioned or recommended for the purchase.
Result: Approving the transfer of funds will allow the purchase of the tablets for our staff to be efficiently more productive in the daily operations of the office and in the court room without having the constant delays with a tablet not suitable to handle the judicial Odyssey software.
