ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY CENTER FOR VIOLENCE PREVENTION AND COMMUNITY SAFETY MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT This Master Services Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into this ___ day of __________, 2015 (the “Effective Date”) by and between the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, acting on behalf of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office (“MCSO”), and The Arizona Board of Regents for and on behalf of Arizona State University and its Center for Violence Prevention and Community Safety (“ASU”). RECITALS A. MCSO desires to engage ASU to perform certain consulting services and to provide technical assistance as MCSO may require from time to time (collectively, the “Services”) in connection with the project description and estimated budget set forth on Exhibit A hereto. The Services to be provided by ASU will be described in each scope of work (each, a “Scope of Work”) agreed to by the parties in the form set forth on Exhibit B hereto. B. ASU’s Center for Violence Prevention and Community Safety (the “Center”) has the capability and personnel to provide the Services to MCSO. C. The performance of the Services is consistent, compatible, and beneficial to the role and mission of ASU, as expressed in its charter statement, to assume fundamental responsibility for the economic, social, cultural and overall health of the communities ASU serves. AGREEMENT 1. Scope of Work. The Center will use reasonable efforts to provide the Services requested by MCSO from time to time. The Services will be provided under the direction and supervision of the Center director, Dr. Charles Katz. The parties agree that ASU will have discretion to involve its students in the conduct and performance of the Services. To the extent there are any conflicts between the provisions of any Scope of Work and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement will control. ASU’s performance of the Services and its obligations under this Agreement are subject to and governed by the regulations and policies of ASU and the Arizona Board of Regents. 2. Scheduling Services; Similar Research. The scheduling of the Services will be arranged to avoid conflict with ASU’s educational and research programs. ASU will control the scheduling of such Services but will try to meet the timelines established by MCSO. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed to limit the freedom of ASU or of its researchers from engaging in similar services made under other grants, contracts or agreements with parties other than MCSO. 3. Compensation and Invoicing. 3.1 MCSO will pay ASU for the Services performed under this Agreement in accordance with the rate schedule set forth in the applicable Scope of Work. MCSO acknowledges and agrees that rates are subject to change from time to time but that rates set forth on a Scope of Work will not change while work thereunder is in progress. MCSO will remit the amount of the contract price due for Services rendered under this Agreement upon receipt of invoices from ASU issued monthly for the duration of the period of performance. Invoices are due and payable within 30 days. ASU will send invoices to the Draft: March 5, 2015 MCSO contact identified in the Scope of Work or communicated to the Center by MCSO. MCSO will send checks or paper remittance advices to the payment address set forth in the Scope of Work or communicated by the Center to MCSO. Questions regarding invoices should be directed to the Center contact identified in the Scope of Work. 3.2 ASU reserves the right to subject invoices not paid within thirty (30) days of the invoice date to a 4% per month late fee on the unpaid balance for any amounts not in dispute. ASU reserves the right to discontinue the Services if MCSO fails to make payments when due.

PROVISION OF ANALYTICAL TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO THE MCSO The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO) is interested in implementing an analysis and technical assistance (TA) collaboration between MCSO and Arizona State University’s Center for Violence Prevention and Community Safety. The goal of the collaboration is to increase the data and analytical infrastructure surrounding MCSO’s traffic stop data analysis work group for the purpose of enhancing the work group’s capacity to collect, maintain, analyze, and disseminate traffic stop data. Over the past several decades, researchers have established the importance of implementing early warning systems to identify prohibited discriminatory policing and racial profiling. The most effective early warning systems are based on the results of systematic data collection and routine analysis. The focal points of the collaboration will be developing the MCSO’s capacity to audit traffic stop data and conduct trend analysis on traffic stops, traffic stop outcomes, and searches and seizures. The Project will be spearheaded by Chief Bill Knight of the MCSO. The MCSO will benefit from training and technical assistance provided by its research partner ASU. The proposed collaboration has four major objectives. Objective 1: Data Audit. Prior federally funded research suggests that before collecting and analyzing traffic stop data, a series of initial steps should be taken to identify the challenges faced by an agency to collect reliable and valid data. ASU will provide TA and input to assist the MCSO in developing an oversight mechanism that determines error rate standards and provides information on the causes and consequences of errors in traffic stop data collection. In doing so, ASU will develop a common understanding of the context of the MCSO’s data needs, engage key stakeholders in identifying their needs and priorities, talk to key stakeholders about their concerns about data quality, and how various interventions might be used to ameliorate recurring problems associated with problem data elements. ASU will also provide ongoing technical assistance to MCSO personnel with respect to statistical training and the use of statistical software packages. Technical assistance will begin immediately upon execution of an Agreement between MSCO and ASU and continue throughout the life of the Project. Objective 2: Developing Analytical Capacity. Twelve (12) one and one half (1.5) to two (2.0) hour classroom training sessions will be conducted over a nine (9) month period. Ten (10) to twenty (20) persons from the MCSO will attend these training sessions. In addition, ongoing technical assistance will be provided to these 10-20 persons with respect to statistical training and the use of statistical software packages. The work group will be trained on matters related to the development and implementation of monthly, quarterly and annual traffic stop data reports. During these sessions, participants will be exposed to: (a) research related to prior reviews of traffic stop data; (b) strengths and weaknesses of prior research; (c) contemporary methods in collecting, auditing, analyzing, and disseminating traffic stop data; (d) analytical methods for auditing and analyzing traffic stop data; and (e) data dissemination strategies. The timing and topic of each training will correspond to tasks at hand; for instance, training on analysis and data management will occur prior to conducting analyses necessary for reports. The overall purpose of these trainings is to increase the capacity of MCSO personnel to make effective use of traffic stop reports by developing the skill sets necessary for the accurate/valid interpretation of traffic stop data and reports as well as for troubleshooting any problems associated with data collection 11 systems. Participants in these trainings will develop familiarity with the basic statistical techniques used in the analysis of the data, and they will develop the capacity to critically evaluate the various reports produced by the MSCO-ASU research collaboration. Objective 3: Planning for Implementation. During this phase the ASU team will partner with MCSO to plan for the implementation of monthly, quarterly, and annual reports. This will include but not be limited to the development of an outline of the contents of each report, determination of the data that will be included in each report, methodological and analytical strategies that will be used to analyze data for the report, and identification of strategies to disseminate reports. Objective 4: Review Traffic Stop Data. ASU will collaborate with MCSO to provide instruction to MCSO to enable MCSO to analyze and report on traffic stop data. This will include methods and techniques for managing data, provision of technical assistance for using appropriate statistical techniques, and, on a limited basis, conducting parallel analyses to audit the quality of data analyses. The end products will include completed monthly, quarterly, and annual reports. The monthly and quarterly reports will include standardized reports as well as reports on special topics. The annual report will be comprised of a number of different chapters that focus on individual, group, and neighborhood level factors. Technical Assistance Process Technical assistance will begin immediately upon execution of an Agreement between MSCO and ASU and continue throughout the life of the Project. ASU will respond to MSCO inquiries regarding technical assistance within 24 hours of receiving them during the regular M-F work week and within 48 hours for inquiries received on weekends or holidays. ASU research/technical assistance team members will be available (at the request of MSCO) to be onsite at MSCO for up to two days each month in addition to attending monthly and special meetings organized by MSCO. The ASU team will provide MSCO with a quarterly report of technical assistance activity/services provided to MSCO. 12 B. 12-MONTH BUDGET Project Support Staff Personnel Hours Per Week Cost Faculty/Administration 4 hours per week $24,152 Graduate Research Assistant 20 hours per week $44,848 Total Base Cost $69,000 Variable Budget Depending on Tasks Requested (ASU/CVPCS hourly charges for tasks required to meet Project objectives.)
