City of Fort Worth, Texas
Mayor and Council Communication
COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 4/11/2006
DATE: Tuesday, April 11, 2006
LOG NAME: 13P06-0063 REFERENCE NO.: **P-10357
SUBJECT:
Authorize a Purchase Agreement With AT&T (SBC) for Local Telephone Services for the
Information Technology Services Department
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize a purchase agreement with AT&T (SBC) for local telephone services for the Information
Technology Solutions (IT Solutions) Department; and
2. Authorize use of the amended State of Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) Texan 2000-
SWB-LS contract terms and conditions to begin April 11, 2006, and expire on August 31, 2009.
DISCUSSION:
IT Solutions will use a State of Texas DIR contract to procure local telephone services from AT&T (SBC) for
the City. Local services include items such as flat rate business lines, voice services, analog/digital trunk
services, disaster routing service, extended metropolitan service, digital subscriber service (DSL) and
Plexar services. All of these locally related telephone services are covered with the existing DIR Texas
Agency Network (TEX-AN 2000) contract. The contract is designed so that local entities may enter into
agreements directly with the vendor. Additionally, the DIR contract for Plexar Service allows for Individual
Customized Bids (ICB). Plexar Service for large users is generally customized to meet customer
needs. The City still has about 30% of its phones on the Plexar System. Over the next few years, use of
Plexar service will continue to diminish as the City changes to Public Branch Exchange (PBX) service.
The DIR contract is the result of a public procurement process conducted in compliance with applicable
Texas law. The contract has been amended and one of the amendments allowed an extension of the
contract period. DIR and SBC signed the Fourth Amendment to TEX-AN 2000-SWB-LS to extend the
contract period through August 31, 2009.
DIR is authorized to offer the cooperative purchasing program to state agencies, public institutions of higher
learning, public school districts and local governments. Pursuant to Government Code Section 791.025, a
local government that purchases goods and services under the Interlocal Cooperation Act satisfies
otherwise applicable competitive bidding requirements.
Over the last year approximately $2.9 million was spent with SBC on services that are considered within the
scope of local telephone services.
M/WBE - A M/WBE goal is not assigned when making a purchase agreement from an approved purchasing
cooperative or other public entity.
