OPENCITIES
CODE: C TYPE: CONSENT PUBLIC NO
HEARING:
SUBJECT: (ALL) Authorize Execution of Amendment to City Secretary Contract Number 52796 with
Granicus, LLC to Add OpenCities Software Licenses, Professional Services, and Training
for a Total Amount of $193,904.00 for the First Year and $161,904.00 for Renewal Year
Options Two, Three, and Four
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that City Council authorize the execution of an amendment to City Secretary
Contract No. 52796 with Granicus, LLC to add OpenCities software licenses, professional services,
and training for a total amount of $193,904.00 for the first year and $161,904.00 for renewal year
options two, three, and four.
DISCUSSION:
In August 2019, Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) 19-0001 authorized agreements with
OpenCities, Inc. for hosted content management system software, professional services, and training
in the amount of $168,904.00 for the first year, and subscription renewal fees of $103,904.00 annually
for years two and three.
The City of Fort Worth's Internet site has been hosted with Granicus, LLC (OpenCities) since 2019.
This amendment to the contract is to continue the hosting of the City of Fort Worth Internet site, as
well as migrate the City of Fort Worth's Intranet site (internal site) to the OpenCities platform. This will
allow employees to access the Intranet without having to be connected to the City of Fort Worth's
Network and for content to be entered once and shared between the Internet and Intranet. Also,
included in this amendment (1St year only) will be the professional services from Granicus to assist
City of Fort Worth to set up a separate domain on the CFW Internet site for Police and to migrate their
content from their content system into the same system with the rest of the website.
This M&C requests authorization to add OpenCities software licenses, professional services, and
training to the current Granicus, LLC City Secretary Contract (CSC) No. 52796 which will enable the
City to:
Replace the current Intranet Website (used to provide information to City employees) with a robust
secure system that will allow employees to access the Intranet content without being on the City of
Fort Worth network. This project will clean up outdated content as well as implement a secure
login for employees to access the Intranet site via any device and web browser. Having this
Intranet on the same platform as the current Internet will allow sharing of content between the
sites as well as a one-stop location for employees to obtain information.
Create a subsite of the current Internet site for the Police Department website
(police.fortworthtexas.gov), bringing it into the OpenCities platform used for the City of Fort Worth
Internet. Currently the Police Department website functions under a City-developed application
and it is limited to those that can support it. Bringing the Police website under the OpenCities
platform will bring consistency to the City's public facing websites and reduce the need to support
the current in-house application.
The one-time cost for the Intranet setup will be $30,000.00 with an annual recurring cost of
$50,000.00. The one-time cost for the Police Department subsite setup is $2,000.00 with an annual
recurring cost of $8,000.00.

1/13/26, 1:52 PM
M&C Review
The annual renewal cost for existing OpenCities Software as a Service License is $78,904.00 and for
existing OpenForms Enterprise License is $25,000.00. The total first year cost equals $193,904.00.
Upon City Council approval, this M&C authorizes the first year license, professional services, and
training cost not to exceed $193,904.00 and annual renewal fee of $161,904.00, with an anticipated 3
to 5 percent increase each year for renewal option years two, three, and four.
BUSINESS EQUITY: A waiver of the goal for Business Equity subcontracting requirements was
requested, and approved by the DVIN, in accordance with the applicable Ordinance, because the
purchase of goods or services is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are
negligible.
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, this agreement shall begin upon execution and
expire one year from that date. The agreement may be renewed on an annual basis thereafter.
RENEWAL OPTIONS: This agreement may be renewed up to three one-year renewal terms at the
City's option. This action does not require specific City Council approval provided that the City Council
has appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the renewal terms.
Funding is budgeted in the Information Technology Solutions Department's ITS Capital Fund for the
purpose of funding the FY22 CPE Intranet project, as appropriated.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current capital budget, as previously
appropriated, in the ITS Capital Fund for the FY22 CPE Intranet project to support the approval of the
above recommendation and execution of the amendment to the contract. Prior to any expenditure
being incurred, the Information Technology Solutions Department has the responsibility to validate the
availability of funds.
