Is when was that number presented to you by the sheriff . This was when the comptroller forecast was released. The 2015 forecast that estimated bed need between 120 and 393. We previously installed 512 beds. What we did with that, we took out two pods. Hes pod had 64 beds in each pod. Taking out 128 was almost half of the floor. We were able to reduce that to 384 to still fit within it. The comptroller gave a range of 120 . Did you do an estimate for what the cost would be if it was 120 . Well, we did the cost for 256 beds. Which was midrange. I think from the Sheriffs Department, even the he can speak to what the needs are. I understand that. If the comptroller had a range of 120 to 393 why wouldnt you a set of alternatives that looked at the entire range .

Managers acknowledged that a cobalt based system works, but they also have indicated that its less efficient, and agile, than more modern computer languages. So what can the agency do to update the technology that it has to have to manage this eyepopping amount of data that youre dealing with every day . Well, i think one of the underlying challenges you just mentioned, theres a tremendous volume of data that we process. We recognize that we have to move away from cobalt to some extent, but not fully, because in some instances its the best language. There is a transition to modernize our systems. One of the challenges will be how quic
So i support your nomination, and i think youve addressed the concerns of the senators here, and im doing it because i think you have the experience. You really had several stints at the agency, so youve seen the changes over time. And i think youll work with us particularly in an area im very interested, make sure were using modern technology. Because i think with 21st century challenges. And then we got things that were in place before, color tv, sort of 20th century technologies, thats why we have to play some catchup. We have to Work Together and we have to move quickly, and we have to do it given the challenge with constrained resources, and i feel youre going to work closely with us, and i intend to support your nomination.
