SOUTH LAKE
MEMORANDUM
October 18, 2022
To: Shana Yelverton, City Manager
From: Sharen Jackson, Chief Financial Officer
Subject: Item 41: Approve the proposal from Ford Audio -Video Systems, LLC
designed to address audio -video issues at DPS Headquarters in
the fire training room in an amount not to exceed $195,000.
Action
Requested: Approve the proposal from Ford Audio -Video Systems, LLC
designed to address audio -video issues at DPS
Headquarters in the fire training room in an amount not to
exceed $195,000.
Background
Information: DPS Headquarters' fire training room audio -video system
that is in use today was completed in 2010. As such, staff is
experiencing technical issues and failures, some of which
are seen by citizens and training attendees. This is common
with the age of equipment. Within the last few years, items
have been fixed with a temporary approach. However,
building on temporary fixes is not best practice, does not
ensure reliability, and will lead to larger problems such as
critical failure.
Ford Audio -Video Systems, LLC is an industry leader and
has provided the following recommendations based on
issues presented by staff.
• Build out a new audio/video rack. This will include
a new audio amplifier to provide power for new
speakers in the ceiling. This rack will also include
a new presentation media switcher with two HDTV
tuners and two Blu-ray disc players. Lastly, it will
house a wired touch panel master control for the
entire room.
• Two wired, 10" touch panels will be wall mounted
near the lecterns to control the AV components.
• Two projection screens and lumen video
projectors.
• One conference camera will be installed to
complete video conferencing capabilities in half
the training room.
• Eight ceiling mounted speakers and one amplifier
will be installed to address audio issues, including
eight ceiling microphones.
Honorable Mayor and City Council
Page 2 of 2
• One wireless microphone system for voice
amplification throughout the room.
• One partition sensor to combine or uncombine the
room sections, making it a multi -functional space.
• Ensure new programming and control over all
capabilities is consistent and easier for staff to
use.
• Training staff on operation of equipment.
These additions will eliminate issues in the fire training room
that staff currently experiences. It will also ensure a system
that is built for growth, flexibility, and future needs.
Financial
Considerations: The 2023 fiscal year budgeted $195,000 for the fire training
room audio -video upgrade in the Technology Infrastructure
and Security Fund.
Strategic Link: This agenda item is linked to the Southlake Strategy Map
through the following objectives:
• C3 Provide attractive & unique spaces for enjoyment
of personal interests
• B4 Provide high quality services through sustainable
business practices
• B6 Optimize the use of technology
Citizen Input/
Board Review: No requirement exists to review the purchase with boards.
Legal Review: No requirement exists to review the purchase with the City
Attorney.
Alternatives: The alternative to approving the proposal would be:
1. Do not approve the proposal and continue
operating as normal, recognizing the current
audio -video issues and understanding the impact
it has to current citizens, training attendees, and
City staff.
2. Direct staff to explore revisions to scope of work
and amend the agreement to reflect those
revisions.
Supporting
Documents: Proposals from Ford Audio -Video Systems, LLC.

important to project execution and completion. Two (2) design reviews and revisions are
included in this proposal. Additional revisions or failure to return the UI submittal within
seven (7) days of receipt, may result in a change order requiring additional funds to
complete the project.
C. The Customer shall clear the rooms involved in the installation of all activities during the
periods of installation. Ford will work with the Customer to schedule the installation.
Hours or days of work lost by the installation crew due to the inability to work as planned
will be charged to the Customer based on the extra labor and expenses required.
d. The Customer shall provide a facility that is prepared for the installation of electronic
equipment. This includes a clean, dust -free, and air-conditioned environment that is
secure and quiet. The Customer is responsible for providing a secure job site and for the
cost of loss or damage to audio, video, and lighting equipment delivered by Ford to the job
site.
e. Existing or Customer provided conduit and raceway must be in good condition for use and
be sized appropriately for the requirements of the project.
f. Electrical Power
In the event that electrical power is required to be installed or conduit systems are required
to support the audio/video systems, it is the responsibility of the Customer, at their expense,
to provide complete and adequate electrical power and conduit, unless otherwise noted.
g. Providing and preparing adequate space for the location of all equipment included in the
system. In the event AV equipment is installed in a finished ceiling or wall, the Customer
is responsible for the refinishing.
h. Providing a clear area with adequate ventilation and air conditioning that maintains a room
temperature not exceeding 75 degrees Fahrenheit in all rooms that are occupied by
sound/audio/video/lighting equipment racks. Sound, audio, video, and lighting equipment
produces heat which must be dissipated by ventilation or air conditioning. Prolonged
operation at room temperatures above 75 degrees Fahrenheit will shorten the life of
electronic equipment leading to premature failure of components.
i. The Customer is responsible for the installation and registration of all software on OFE
computers. Ford will provide the Customer with the system requirements for Ford
provided software, but the Customer is responsible for installing it on the OFE PCs and/or
OFE network. All software -related customer support shall be directly provided by the
software manufacturer.
Scaffolding or lifts provided by the Customer for use by Ford must meet OSHA safety
standards and be satisfactory to meet the needs of the Ford installation personnel. In the
event the Customer furnished scaffolding or lifts are unacceptable, Ford will present a
change request detailing the additional cost and time extension required to complete the
project.

k. Ford is not licensed for and does not perform any electrical, structural, or mechanical
engineering; in addition, Ford does not provide carpentry, painting, masonry, ceiling, or
carpet laying work.
1. The Customer shall advise Ford in writing prior to signing a contract agreement regarding
the existence of asbestos in any area that Ford may be required to work. The Ford safety
policy does not allow any employee to perform work if any asbestos hazard exists. If
asbestos is detected, Ford employees will be removed from the location until the location
can be made safe in compliance with OSHA standard (1926.1101). Any incurred
expenses related to the stoppage of work will be the responsibility of the Customer.
FORD SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR:
a. Providing line drawings for systems and equipment manuals electronically at no cost
b. Fabrication and installation of audio and video systems
C. Providing recommendations for electrical power and conduits, to be provided and installed
by the electrical contractor, for the audio, video, and control systems

h. Training
i. Warranty service
Providing as -built drawings with wire numbers and labels
4. PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
a. Ford shall perform one (1) pre -scheduled service call, prior to the end of the warranty
period, for the purpose of conducting routine preventative maintenance (PM) to check the
general operation of equipment. This PM service call shall be scheduled in advance with
the Customer, between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm Monday through Friday, excluding holidays,
and does not include expendable materials used (e.g., light bulbs, lamps, light fixture
lamps, fuses, batteries, portable connection cables, etc.) or system programming. This
service will renew and be billed in advance on an annual basis unless the Customer notifies
Ford of its intent to cancel. The Customer may cancel at any time prior to the work being
performed. PM visits are subject to adjustments based on the age of the equipment and
Ford's labor cost.
b. The Customer will provide a contact person that is authorized to answer questions and
obligate the Customer if additional services are requested. The contact will be personally
available to meet with the Ford technician and have knowledge of the equipment and

systems to be inspected. The contact person will provide access to all areas and equipment
rooms requiring inspection.
C. INSTALLATION SCHEDULE
Ford will provide system drawings, purchase and fabricate equipment, program control software,
and do in -shop testing. The in -shop work will take approximately ten (10) to twelve (12) weeks
prior to the beginning of the actual installation at the Customer's facility. Ford estimates the actual
on -site installation, test out, and commissioning of this project will take three (3) weeks. The total
time required to complete the project is approximately fifteen (15) weeks from agreement
execution. The completion of Ford's work depends upon the facility being secure, dust -free, air-
conditioned, and quiet. Due to the ongoing presence of the Covid 19 virus and delays in the
equipment supply chain, delays in the scheduled installation of AV systems can occur. Ford will
keep you informed if scheduling changes become necessary.
2. For Ford to meet the above completion schedule, it is important the Customer warrants there are
no interruptions in the availability of the job site for Ford to perform its work. Additionally, a
failure of the Customer to respond timely to Ford's written requests for information or Customer -
approval of submittals will delay the project. Ford schedules its work force weeks in advance in
order to meet installation completion dates. The Customer shall notify Ford's Project Manager in
the event the Customer changes the schedule or the Customer's other contractors fall behind in
completing their portion of the work.

not employ any employee or any person who was an employee of the other parry at any
time during the relationship between the parties or for a period of one (1) year following
the termination of any relationship between the parties. In the event of a breach of this
section, the breaching party agrees to pay the other parry an amount equal to the hired
employee's annual wages as an agreed upon cost to replace the employee.
FORD GUARANTEES THE FOLLOWING:
a. Equipment will be new, unless noted otherwise.
b. All workmanship provided by Ford will be free of defects and will be repaired, free of
charge, for a period of one (1) year from the date of substantial completion or the first date
of beneficial use of the system, whichever date occurs first. Substantial completion shall
be defined as the point where the work, or designated portion thereof, is sufficiently
complete so that the system can be used for its intended purpose.
C. All equipment and materials provided by Ford that were manufactured by other companies
will be warranted under the standard warranty terms of the original manufacturer.
d. The warranty does not include nor cover expendable materials used with the system

and should be expected.
£ Ford is not responsible for the performance, testing, or configuration of owner -furnished
data networks that are used to transmit audio, video, and lighting program data and control
signal data. IP-based videoconferencing systems rely upon data networks that can provide
consistent bandwidth for the transmission. Videoconferencing that is transmitted over the
Internet is subject to the intermittent and unreliable nature of the public network. In the
event that the Customer's network is found to be the cause of defects in the quality of the
audio/video signals, is unreliable, or has insufficient bandwidth to support the A/V/L
system and Ford's network engineers are required to troubleshoot or configure the
Customer's network, the cost of this service will be invoiced to the Customer.
g. The term "Software" as used in this document includes all editable source files, un-editable
compiled files, graphical user interface files and functionality, audio digital signal
processor (DSP) files, in whole and in part, produced under the terms of this agreement.
Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing, all Software created by Ford remains the
property of Ford, and the Customer is hereby provided a license to use the Software for
this project only. The Software may not be used on any other project, nor used for any

of the Customer's company without prior approval from Ford.
h. Any adjustments made by the Customer or the Customer's agent(s), other than routine
operational adjustments, including adjustments or changes to the Software, will not be
covered under this warranty statement. Re -calibration of settings will be considered by
Ford to be billable time to the Customer at Ford's standard engineering rates.
i. Procedures such as routine preventative maintenance functions (e.g., keeping filters clean,
keeping system environment free from foreign materials, etc.) are the responsibility of the
Customer and is not included within this warranty agreement. Failure on the part of the
Customer to perform these routine maintenance functions shall void this warranty.
If warranty work is necessary within the warranty period, Ford will, at its option, repair the
defective equipment or return it to the manufacturer for repair.
k. Repairs, modifications, or other work performed by personnel not authorized by Ford
during the period of warranty on any equipment of the system, including any changes to
the Software, will invalidate the warranty.
1. Ford will not be responsible for damages or cost of repairs due to modifications,
adjustments, or additions to the system performed by personnel not authorized by Ford
prior to acceptance of the system by the Customer.
in. Ford may withhold warranty service in the event that the Customer has an unpaid balance
due to be paid to Ford.
2. OWNER -FURNISHED EQUIPMENT (OFE):
a. Ford's intent is to provide a complete system including all equipment. In some cases, the
Customer may own equipment which they desire to be included with the installation. Ford
identifies this as OFE.
b. The use of OFE is solely for the convenience of the Customer and is not included in the
warranty or guarantee provided.
C. Ford shall take reasonable care in handling OFE and install it according to standard
industry practices; however, Ford takes no responsibility for the operation, performance,
appearance, or effects of OFE before, during, or after its integration into the system. Ford
reserves the right to accept or reject OFE based on the equipment's service record, or lack
thereof, poor condition, or out of date software/firmware. Ford will not accept OFE that is
purchased by the Customer to replace equipment that is specified in this proposal.
d. In the event that OFE does not function properly, Ford shall notify the Customer to
determine if the OFE is to be a) repaired, b) an alternate unit provided by the Customer, c)
the unit is not to be used, or d) Ford is to provide a new unit. Ford shall provide a cost to
the Customer for the work to be done. The Customer will authorize any additional costs to
the job.

VISUAL INSPECTION:
a. This proposal is based upon a visual inspection of the site conditions. It is agreed that some
buildings may have inherent design and/or construction that is not visibly recognizable and
is outside of normal standard and customary building procedures. If the walls, floors or
ceiling are found to be constructed in a manner that wire cannot be pulled or equipment
cannot be mounted or otherwise installed without labor or materials in excess of those
anticipated by both parties and proposed herein, the Customer agrees to be responsible for
any adjustments in the labor and materials required to perform the installation.
2. EXISTING CONDITIONS:
a. Acoustics and Noise
In facilities where Ford is providing a sound or audio system, the Customer is responsible
for providing an environment free of ambient noise and excessive reverberation and
echoes.
1) Typically, ambient noise is created by HVAC systems (Heating, Ventilation, and
Air Conditioning), plumbing, or other mechanical systems in the building. In
general, Ford recommends that the ambient noise sound pressure level not exceed
NC35 (Noise Criteria) or 35 dB A scale.
2) Long reverberation times and echoes are normally the result of hard wall, floor,
and ceiling surfaces found in some rooms. Typically, Ford recommends that the
reverb time does not exceed 1.5 seconds where the primary use is the
communication of speech. The production of other types of music may require
longer reverberation times. In the event that echoes exist, absorptive or diffusive
wall and ceiling panels may be required to eliminate or minimize the detrimental
effects of the echoes.

3) Ford is not responsible for any costs related to reducing the ambient noise or
modifying the acoustics of the Customer's facilities.
ACCEPTANCE
The Customer's personnel will be notified by Ford upon completion of the installation.
2. Demonstration of system performance will be during the training session.
Participants at the performance demonstration shall include personnel representing Ford and
personnel representing City of Southlake who are authorized to accept the system as complete and
make final payment.
This proposal shall not be deemed as accepted by Ford until the executed contract is returned to Ford's Credit Center
for final review and acceptance. If a purchase order is required by the Customer, it must be transmitted with the
signed install agreement for review and acceptance.
This proposal contains confidential pricing, design, engineering, and installation information that is proprietary to
Ford. It is provided for your private use, and is not to be disclosed, in part or in whole, without the express, written
authorization of Ford.
