HEARING:
SUBJECT: Authorize Execution of an Amendment to City Secretary Contract No. 45452 for Video
Surveillance Equipment and Management System with TASER International, Inc., to
Increase Contract Authority in the Amount of$368,857.00 for a Total Contract Amount of
$869,857.00 and Authorize Three Annual Renewal Options in an Amount Not to Exceed
$698,575.00 Annually (ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the execution of an Amendment to City Secretary Contract No. 45452 for video
surveillance equipment and management system with TASER International, Inc., to increase contract
authority in the amount of$368,857.00 for a total contract amount of$869,857.00; and
2. Authorize three annual renewal options in an amount not to exceed $698,575.00 annually,
contingent upon appropriation of sufficient funding in the upcoming adopted budgets of the Crime
Control and Prevention District for this purpose.
DISCUSSION:
On March 25, 2014, City Council authorized the execution of an Agreement with TASER
International, Inc., for video surveillance equipment and management system in the amount of
$216,490.00 (M&C C-26729). The Agreement includes options to renew for subsequent years of
service. After the expiration of the initial term, two renewal options were exercised.
Staff recommends amending City Secretary Contract No. 45452 to increase the contract authority
under the Agreement in the amount of$368,857.00 for a total contract amount of$869,857.00. The
increase in contract authority will allow the Fort Worth Police Department (FWPD) to purchase 198
cameras, accessory kits, associated docking stations and storage services. Currently, the City has
595 cameras, along with associated accessories, docking stations and video storage services.
In late 2010, FWPD began testing several video surveillance solutions to provide on-officer video
capabilities for police activity that occurs away from the mounted dash camera of the patrol
vehicle. After extensive testing of various surveillance solutions, FWPD selected the Axon Flex
System (Camera System) from TASER International, Inc. The Camera System includes the
cameras, associated accessories, mounting and docking station, software interface and
maintenance. The Camera System captures valuable evidence and reduces the number of false
complaints against officers in criminal cases. The captured video evidence is stored on
Evidence.com, an online video storage solution owned by TASER International, Inc. The online
storage solution allows officers to store and view digital video evidence from the Axon Flex cameras
and various other sources. This secure solution protects the video evidence from tampering and
catalogs each event for easy retrieval and evidence management.
The current renewal term is from October 1, 2015 to September 30, 2016. Upon the expiration of the
renewal term, the City will have the three options to renew the Agreement for additional one year
terms. The City will pay for the renewal term from the Fiscal Year 2016 Crime Control and

Prevention District (CCPD) Fund in an amount not to exceed $368,857.00. FWPD will seek funding
from the CCPD fund for each annual renewal option in an amount not to exceed $698,575.00
annually.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon approval of the above
recommendation, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the
CCPD Fund for the payment of the initial term of the contract. Funding for annual renewal options is
contingent upon appropriation of sufficient funding in the upcoming adopted budgets of the CCPD
Fund for this purpose.
