appropriated by City in any fiscal period for any payments due hereunder, City will notify Vendor
of such occurrence and this Agreement will terminate on the last day of the fiscal period for which

manner and will not allow unauthorized users to access, modify, delete, or otherwise corrupt City

identifying what information has been accessed by unauthorized means and will fully cooperate
with City to protect such City Information from further unauthorized disclosure.
6. Ri�ht to Audit. Vendor agrees that City will, until the expiration of three (3) years after

PUBLIC
CONSENT HEARING: NO
SUBJECT: (ALL) Authorize Execution of Non-Exclusive Agreements with Texas Industrial Security,
Inc. and Deltacon Global Inc. dba Deltacon Security for Security Guard Services in an
Annual Combined Amount Up to $220,000.00 for the First Year and Authorize Four One-
Year Renewal Options for the Same Annual Amount for the Police Department
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of non-exclusive agreements with Texas
Industrial Security, Inc. and Deltacon Global Inc. dba Deltacon Security for security guard services in an
annual combined amount up to $220,000.00 for the initial term and authorize four one-year renewal options
for the same annual amount for the Police Department.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this M&C is to secure non-exclusive agreements for security guard services for the Police
Department. Security guard services will be utilized for prisoners admitted to John Peter Smith Hospital
and other area hospitals. The services will be on as-needed basis with the option to have armed guards as
well. To procure these services, Purchasing issued Request for Proposal (RFP) 25-0168, which outlined
detailed responsibilities and requirements to provide these services.
The RFP was advertised in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on June 11, 2025, June 18, 2025, June 25,
2025, and July 2, 2025. The City received fifteen (15) responses.
An evaluation panel made up of staff from the Police and Municipal Courts Department reviewed and
scored the submittals using the Best Value criteria. Scores were averaged for each of the criteria and the
final scores are shown in the table below.

Page 2 of 3
Applied Operations Security & Investigations, PCBM Protection Group, Blue Star Security, Henderson
Security Solutions LLC, and Gladiator Universal Security Services LLC, did not score at least 50\% of the
total available points, therefore, cost was not evaluated.
The RFP outlined the following evaluation factors:
a. Proposer's qualifications, experience, and reference
b. Proposer's approach to perform services
c. Proposer's ability to meet the City's
d. Cost
After completing the evaluation, the panel concluded that Texas Industrial Security, Inc. and Deltacon
Global Inc. dba Deltacon Security offered the best value to the City. As a result, the panel recommends
that City Council authorize non-exclusive agreements with Texas Industrial Security, Inc. and Deltacon
Global Inc. dba Deltacon Security. No guarantee was made that a specific amount of these services would
be purchased. Staff certifies that the recommended vendor's proposal meets specifications.
FUNDING: The combined maximum annual amount allowed under the agreements will be
$220,000.00. However, the actual amount used will be based on the needs of the department and
available budget. Funding is budgeted in Other Contractual Services account within the General Fund for
the Police Department.
ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE ORDER: An administrative change order or increase may be made by the
City Manager up to the amount allowed by relevant law and the Fort Worth City Code and does not
require specific City Council approval as long as sufficient funds have been appropriated.
AGREEMENT TERMS: Upon City Council approval, the agreements shall begin upon execution and
expire one (1) year from that date.
RENEWAL TERMS: The Agreements may be renewed at the City's option for four (4) additional one-year
terms. This action does not require City Council approval, provided that the City Council has appropriated
sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the renewal terms.
SMALL BUSINESS PROGRAM: This bid was issued before September 1, 2025, preceding the
implementation of the Small Business Program. Therefore, a Small Business Goal was not assigned.
This project will serve ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendation and adoption of the
Fiscal Year 2026 Budget by the City Council, funds will be available in the Fiscal Year 2026 operating
budget, as appropriated, in the General Fund to support execution of the agreements. Prior to an
expenditure being incurred, the Police Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of
funds.
