B. Work Plan 1. Procurement: As required by City policy, procurement of equipment exceeding $10,000 will be processed through either a state contract or competitive bidding process as outlined in the City of Everett Procurement Policy 400-12-06. 2. Distribution: After the equipment has been received from the vendor, eight of the FN-303 compressed air less-than-lethal launchers will be distributed evenly between the Everett Police Department's two precincts to be stored in the less-than-lethal storage lockers at each precinct. Personnel who are trained and have maintained a current qualification record on the system will be authorized to sign-out the launchers at the beginning of their shift and return the equipment at the end of their shift. The department's armorer will be responsible for maintaining the compressed air refill stations. The spare projectile munitions will be stored in secure containers to be managed by the department's armorer. Four of the FN-303 compressed air less-than-lethal launchers will be assigned to personnel on the Special Operations Group and the launchers will be stored in the team's secure storage locker. 3. Training: The Everett Police Department has two certified trainers on the FN-303 compressed air less-than-lethal launcher system. Prior to receiving the equipment from this RFP, the Everett Police Department acquired five of the launchers to mitigate the effects of RCW 10.116.040. The two certified trainers have developed a lesson plan for the training which includes safety instructions for the launcher: • Always treat the FN launcher as if loaded and operational. • Point the muzzle in a safe direction. • Keep your finger outside the trigger guard until ready to fire. • Do not target above the shoulders. • Do not fire at a person without lawful objective/purpose.
