In writing specifications and/or making a decision for purchase of a system, the county board shall take the following into consideration:
(a)Speed for creation of computer-stored images of voter signatures and, if applicable, of the full voter registration document.
(b)Ease of operation of all equipment and understanding of all software.
(c)Capability to obtain satisfactory images from documents to be used as source documents.
(d)Time required for correction of images deemed to be unsatisfactory.
(e)Capability to accommodate the various source documents to be used for imaging, including all versions of original voter registration cards, documents of different background colors, different inks used for voter signature, varying layout, etc.
(f)The quality of the facsimile signature produced by the system when projected on a computer terminal screen or when printed for such purposes as a registration poll list, should be such that the person utilizing the facsimile to determine if it does represent or replicate the actual signature can make that judgment readily. Copying or reduction of the image should be permitted only if the ability to make such a judgment is not impaired thereby.
(g)Capability to meet the schedule established for conversion of the records and creation of a computer registration file.
(h)Capability to perform the work of the board in maintaining the file after conversion and to meet the requirements of peak load activity, including processing of all new voter registrations and changes to existing voter registration records as well as production of the registration poll lists for each election day.
(i)In the event of a system malfunction, availability of backup facilities and/or service.
