CODE: C TYPE: CONSENT PUBLIC NO
HEARING:
SUBJECT: (ALL) Authorize Execution of Amendment 2 to City Secretary Contract 58211 with
Locution Systems Inc., for Firestations with a CADVOICE Alert System for Upgrades and
Annual Maintenance to Increase the Authorized Amount Up to $541,375.00 Annually for a
Contract Total Amount of $641,375.00 with Four Renewal Options
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize amendment 2 to City Secretary Contract 58211
with Locution Systems Inc., for fire stations with a CADVOICE Alert System for upgrades and annual
maintenance, the amendment will increase the authorization amount up to $541,375.00, for a total
contract amount of $641,375.00 with four renewal options.
DISCUSSION:
The Information Technology Solutions (ITS) Department will utilize this agreement with Locution
Systems Inc. (Locution), to purchase upgrades to CADVOICE Alert Systems for Fire, spare parts on
an as needed basis and annual support maintenance for all fire stations that have the CADVOICE
Alert System.
CADVOICE is an automated dispatching and fire station alerting system that interfaces with standard
computer -aided dispatch (CAD) systems. This is the standard alerting technology used at all fire
stations throughout the City. This technology separates the act of speaking the dispatch from the
dispatcher, allowing them to handle more calls in the same amount of time, and providing first
responders with a clear, consistent, accent -neutral voice that is easy to understand in stressful
situations.

Locution is the documented sole source vendor for the CADVOICE Alert System and support
maintenance service because they are the only vendor that has access to information and programs
required to maintain the CADVOICE Alert System.
PRICE ANALYSIS - The City has purchasing history for the CADVOICE Alert System, spare parts
and maintenance. The prices offered by Locution remain unchanged from the previous purchase
prices. Staff reviewed the pricing and determined it to be fair and reasonable.
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 a sole source 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 TERM - Upon City Council's approval, this Agreement will begin once executed by the
Deputy City Manager and end October 31, 2027.
RENEWAL OPTIONS - This agreement may be renewed for up to four successive one-year 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 term.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current capital and operating budget,
as previously appropriated, in the ITS Capital Fund for the FY23 FD Locution refresh, FY24 FD
Station 15 Refresh, FY24 FD Station 43 Refresh and the FY 22 FD Locution Refresh projects and in
the Info Technology Systems Fund to support the approval of the above recommendation and
execution of the amendment. Prior to any expenditure being incurred, the Information Technology
Solutions Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of funds.
