SAVNS MAINTENANCE GRANT CONTRACT BETWEEN
THE OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
AND BRAZOS COUNTY

OAG Contract No. 0907618
THIS GRANT CONTRACT is executed between the Office of the Attorney General of Texas (OAG) and
Brazos County (COUNTY). The Office of the Attorney General and COUNTY may be referred to in this
contract individually as a "Party" and collectively as the "Parties."
SECTION 1. PURPOSE OF THE CONTRACT
The purpose of the OAG SAVNS grant program is to maintain Texas counties in a statewide system that will
provide relevant offender release information, notification of relevant court settings or events, promote public
safety and support the rights of victims of crime. To accomplish the public purpose, the OAG will reimburse
COUNTY for certain cost incurred in the implementation and operation of its portion of the statewide crime
victim notification service ("SAVNS'). To ensure a standard statewide service to all interested counties,
including COUNTY, the OAG will reimburse COUNTY for eligible expenses related to services delivered to
COUNTY by the vendor certified by the OAG to provide certain services to the COUNTY.
A Request for Proposals (RFP) for Statewide Automated Victim Services was published November 28, 2005.
After an evaluation of proposals, the OAG identified and certified a single vendor to provide statewide
automated victim services. The certification is stated in that certain document dated January 13, 2006, as
renewed until August 31, 2009, by document dated June 25, 2007, and entitled: Vendor Certification for the
Statewide Automated Victim Notification Service. This document is hereinafter referred to as the
"Certification" and is expressly incorporated herein by reference. The vendor certified to provide the services
is Appriss, Inc., a Kentucky corporation authorized to do business in Texas ("Certified Vendor").
SECTION 2. SERVICE PERIOD (TERM) OF THE CONTRACT

September 1, 2008 or the date of the signature by the OAG executing this contract, (being the date shown on
this contract as the date executed by OAG); and unless terminated earlier as provided by another provision of
this contract, this contract will terminate August 31, 2009.
2.2 Option to Extend Service Period (Term). This contract may be extended for an additional Service
Period (Term) by a written amendment executed with the same formalities as this contract. Extending the
Service Period (Term) does not increase the contract amount. Any increase in the contract amount must also

SECTION 3 COUNTY'S CONTRACTUAL SERVICES
3.1. County Services Agreement. COUNTY will execute a "County Services Agreement," a contractual
agreement, with the Certified Vendor to provide services consistent with the Certification document. The

rights and remedies as are necessary to ensure the delivery of the services from the Certified Vendor in
accordance with the Scope of Services as stated in this contract and the Certification document.
For the convenience of COUNTY, a template services agreement will be made available to COUNTY. The
OAG is not acting as an attorney for the COUNTY, therefore the COUNTY is advised to have attorneys of its
choice to review and modify the template services agreement to protect the interest of the COUNTY and to
ensure that the appropriate level of services will be delivered.
3.2 County Maintenance Plan. COUNTY agrees to maintain the services in a manner consistent with
the "County Maintenance Plan." The COUNTY will establish and maintain a COUNTY Maintenance Plan

and
3.2.4 Identify and dedicate COUNTY staff, resources and equipment necessary to maintain the
services in the County Services Agreement.

will inspect, monitor and verify the performances required of the Certified Vendor. COUNTY will inspect,
monitor and verify the performances required of the Certified Vendor as provided in the COUNTY Services
Agreement as well as this contract. In particular, COUNTY will:
3.3.1. Execute a COUNTY Services Agreement Renewal Notice with the Certified Vendor,
for the Service Period (Term) that coincides with the Service Period (Term) of this contract.
3.3.2. Verify that the COUNTY input data (the jail and court data elements used by the
