CITY OF FLIRT WORTH
TEXAS
DH LETTER 1354
DATE: August 8,2003
TO: ALL DEPARTMENT HEADS
FROM: Gary W.Jackson,City Manager
SUBJECT: Administrative Regulation: D4 Official City of Fort Worth Logo
At my direction, a city task force was convened to review the current administrative
regulation governing the use of the city logo. The charge was to review the entire
regulation,particularly the sections dealing with the use of the city logo on city vehicles.
The task force concluded that the regulation, as presently written, is resulting in the city
logo being used as intended with one exception—the use of the logo on vehicles. The
task force concluded that the city logo is intended to be the universally recognized
symbol of the City of Fort Worth. After taking into consideration the state and federal
mandated requirements for marking government vehicles, the task force concluded that
the portion of the regulations dealing with the use of the city logo on vehicles (Section
7.5)is too vague and,instead,should specify how the logo should appear.
Therefore the logo AR has been revised to:
• Require the city logo to be on the front door of all licensed city vehicles,
or as near as possible if the front door cannot accommodate the logo.
• Require all non-licensed equipment such as tractors and lawnmowers to
display the logo as large as possible in as prominent a place as possible.
• If a department's logo is on a vehicle, it must be subordinate to,the city
logo.
• If a department wishes to deviate from this regulation, the deviation must
be approved by the City Manager's Office, and the City Council must be
notified in writing of the approved deviation prior to implementation.
Several minor clarifying changes have been incorporated. One requires that the City
Council be notified in writing of any deviation from the logo regulation that is approved
prior to implementation and the other change acknowledges that some departments have
uniform designs that are considered exempt from the regulation's uniform rules.
The AR allows the Police Department to continue using its new vehicle logo design. If
the Police Department decides to change from the current logo, be it a year from now or
10 years from now, the revised regulations apply. That means the Police Department
would have to display the city logo on the front doors of police vehicles, or it would have
to request the approval of a different design from the City Manager's Office, which if
approved, would be brought to the attention of City Council as part of the approval
process.

Authorize Execution of Contracts with J-Peam, L.L.C. d/b/a John Sons Press, AC Printing, LLC, and Stone
Shield Investments, LLC, for Printing and Related Services in a Combined Amount Up to $900,000.00 for
the Initial Term (ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize execution of contracts with J-Peam, L.L.C. d/b/a John
Sons Press, AC Printing, LLC, and Stone Shield Investments, LLC, for printing and related services in a
combined amount up to $900,000.00 for the initial term.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Fort Worth (City) will use these contracts to purchase printing and related services. Printing
services are used by various City departments in connection with a variety of communication
projects. Goods and services to be ordered under these contracts include stationery, envelopes, forms,
annual reports, brochures, newsletters, maps, booklets and business cards. The City also will use these
contracts for color printing involving various sizes, weights, media and image types, as well as binding and
finishing services, including foam core mounting and laminating. The City's Reprographics Division closed
July 15, 2015.
RFP ADVERTISEMENT -A Request for Proposals (RFP) was advertised in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram
every Wednesday from April 15, 2015 through May 7, 2015 with detailed specifications for printing and
related services. The evaluation factors included ability to comply with RFP requirements, relevant
experience and qualifications of the company, relevant experience and qualifications of proposed service
personnel, record of satisfactory performance and price proposal. Eighty-seven vendors were solicited
from the purchasing vendor database system; seven responses were received. The proposals were
reviewed by an evaluation committee consisting of staff from Reprographics, Water, City Manager, Code
Compliance and Emergency Management Departments. The proposals from J-Peam, L.L.C. d/b/a John
Sons Press, AC Printing, LLC, and Stone Shield Investments, LLC, were determined to present the best
value to the City.
PRICE ANALYSIS - Prices under these contracts are comparable to prices in City Secretary Contract
(CSC) No. 42864 (M&C P-11347) awarded in January 2012. The services provided under these contracts
will replace the services provided by the Reprographics Division. No guarantee was made that a specific
amount of services would be purchased. However, City departments may spend up to $300,000.00 with
each contractor during the initial term of these Agreements.
ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE ORDER -An administrative change order or increase may be made by the
City Manager in the amount of up to $50,000.00 for each of these three contracts and does not require
specific City Council approval as long as sufficient funds have been appropriated.
Logname: 13P15-0178 PRINTING SERVICES DB Page I of 2 ,
CONTRACT TERMS - Upon City Council's approval, the contracts will begin on execution and expire on
February 4, 2017 to coincide with the term of existing print services contract.
RENEWAL OPTIONS - These contracts may be renewed for up to two successive one-year periods in
accordance with the terms of these contracts. 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.
M/WBE OFFICE -A waiver of the goal for MBE/SBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the
Purchasing Division and approved by the M/WBE office. In accordance with the BDE ordinance, because
the purchase of goods or services is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are
negligible.

budgets, as appropriated, of the participating departments and that prior to an expenditure being made,
