Utility Bill and Insert Printing and Fulfillment
Request for Proposal
9/28/2021
11/1/2021 01:00 PM (CT)
The City of Plano is soliciting proposals for data processing, printing,
and mailing of utility bills and inserts.
Questions must be submitted electronically through
IonWave. No questions will be answered over the phone
or through email.
The preferred method for proposal submission is electronically through
IonWave. If you choose to submit your proposal in person, Purchasing
personnel will be available Mondays and Wednesdays between the
hours of 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. The person delivering the proposal must
call (972) 941-7557 upon arrival during those hours and wait in the
lobby for someone to meet them to receive their proposal. Responses
delivered in person are to be delivered in a sealed envelope to the
Purchasing Division at:
City of Plano Purchasing Division
1520 K Avenue
Plano, TX 75074
Ph: (972) 941-7557
All responses are due prior to the published closing date and time. No
late responses will be accepted.
Proposals will be opened, and the names of offerors read, on
Tuesday, November 2, 2021 at 2:00 PM Central Time The reading
Page 1 of 3 pages
Vendor: DataProse, LLC. 2021-0440-AC Addendum 1
will be broadcast live by Plano TV and available for viewing at the time
of opening by tuning into the City of Plano's Government Access
Channel online or through your cable provider. Broadcast information
and viewing by stream may be accessed at this link:
https://www.plano.gov/1565/Plano-TV. Tabulations for these
solicitations should be available on IonWave within 48 hours of the
opening. We ask that you limit exposure by watching the live
broadcast of the opening, or viewing tabulations electronically through
lonWave, rather than attending at City Hall.
Time Critical Deliveries: The City of Plano cannot guarantee, due to
internal procedures, that any offers sent via Priority Mail will be picked
up and delivered by the closing date and time. It is recommended that
critical deliveries be made either electronically through lonWave or in
person as described above.
It is further recommended that users review all electronic response
attachments to ensure that the uploaded files are able to be
downloaded and viewed. Instructions for this, if needed, can be found
in the Supplier Bid Response Quick Tutorial online in lonWave or by
calling lonWave Support at 866-277-2645. Responses or parts of a
response, whether hardcopy or electronic, that cannot be viewed may
render your submittal non -responsive. In addition, the City reserves the
right to request clarification in such cases.

PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
As the current vendor to the City, this timeline does not apply. However, our process would include the
following steps for any new implementation:
Test Data File
Data Layout
Client Logo
New Client Checklist
NCOA-Link documentation
Mockup (if applicable)
Your Project Manager will provide you with all documentation necessary to begin development and is able to
assist you with any questions you may have from the items listed above. After the completion of the initial
development, you will receive samples from DataProse. You and your Project Manager will complete a series of
correction and revisions as deemed necessary in order to create your desired new statement design. Once the
design of the statement is complete, you will be asked to perform a Parallel Test.
For each project implemented by DataProse, you will be assigned a dedicated Account Manager to facilitate all
client communication and funnel all questions or concerns. Your Account Manager will represent DataProse and
will be equipped with the necessary information to complete the project. In turn, we ask that one point of contact
be established at the client level to facilitate client changes, revisions and final approval for the application to be
built. Although various components of the project may be assigned to specific individuals on your team, it is
ultimately the main point of contact that the Account Manager will consult regarding format changes and final
decisions that may arise while the project is in production.
Each project is also assigned a DataProse developer. This person is responsible for the data programming
associated with your application including data mapping and bill design. The Project Manager and Developer work
closely to produce your final product. The developer is the person that will be a technical resource for the
development of your application in the event data specific questions arise.
It is imperative that all items be received and returned in a quick and efficient manner. Failure to return items as
requested may result in a delayed live date. Your project cannot begin until a test data file, data layout and
checklist are received. Your project completion date will be assessed once all components are returned and
submitted for scheduling. A conference call may be needed within two weeks of project submission in order to
answer questions regarding your data set by the assigned development programmer. In most cases, an initial
sample of the project can be expected within two to three weeks from project submission. Again, this date is
subject to change and will be defined on your project plan from the point of receipt of requested items.
There may be components of your project that will need to be assessed outside of printing and mail delivery. If
this is the case, this project will receive its own timeline and requirements in order to obtain the desired product.
As with any new change, you may see a need to alter the initial sample as presented by DataProse. Your Project
Manager will provide you with a Corrections and Revisions Form in order to alter the initial sample. This form is
necessary to obtain your final desired project. Your preference may be to increase the font of one section or add
your website and office hours. In any case, be sure to clearly define your requested revisions to your PM and on
the correction and revisions form. We understand that it may be necessary to complete a series of corrections
and revisions. As a general rule, we anticipate a maximum of three rounds of corrections and revisions.

DP MailTrax Progress Report:
DP MailTrax is our mail tracking service that utilizes USPS IMB barcode scans to track mail through the USPS
system. This allows your personnel to know the status of each document/piece in the mail stream. DataProse
offers tracking on both incoming (Origin) and outgoing (Destination) mail. DP MailTrax leverages the USPS IMb
Tracing solution which provides clients with near real-time tracking information about your First -Class Mail®. This
tracking is performed by retaining all scanning information as it is performed by the USPS and retained by
DataProse. You can have visibility to the location of any document, as well as the return payments, which we
believe is helpful during customer service interactions.

AUTOMATED DOCUMENT FACTORY / INSERTING INTEGRITY
DataProse utilizes a camera verification system to track and verify document specific data to ensure the integrity
of each mail piece. The camera captures images of the mail pieces (address window) as they travel through the
inserting process in a predefined sequence. The images are transmitted to our system and OCR software reads
the barcodes to spot any breaks in the sequence or document specific information.
The information that we check and verify includes:
Envelope Id
Print Id
First Page Indicator
Envelope Sequence Id
Component Id
Job Id

DATAPROSE QUALITY CONTROL PROCESS OVERVIEW
Quality is at the forefront of the DataProse business model. DataProse will provide quarterly, bi-annual or annual
account reviews depending on the client's business needs, which allow DataProse to gauge the satisfaction level
of our customers. A typical meeting will address any processing issues and establish planning for product
enhancements, document changes or quality control procedures. In addition, we expect open communication
and encourage our clients to keep regular contact. Ultimately, the measure of value is left to our customers. With
the extremely high contract renewal rate that DataProse has sustained, we have confirmed that our services add
value to our clients and are high quality.
DataProse feels the key to a successful vendor customer relationship is matching resources. Having key resources
in place that understands the client and their business needs will ensure continued success. DataProse will match
resources at the operational level for daily activity, as well as at the executive level for primary decision -making,
strategy and key development tasks.
Our ADF (Automated Document Factory) utilizes a Problem Fault Management system called ITSM (IR "Incident
Report" System). Each problem, or IR, is tracked as a ticket using an internal computer program. Tickets are
entered, updated and closed within this system, allowing users to trace the IR from the reporting of the problem
to its closure. Clients are given ticket information, including the ticket number, so that they can call their Account
Manager for information regarding a ticket's status.
DataProse's mindset of "zero defects" is the high standard to which DataProse holds itself. The zero defects
philosophy encourages everyone to accept no mistakes, delays or rework as a business practice, but rather to
learn from the mistakes, set an obtainable goal, develop a plan to reach that goal, and then raise the goal. As
employees utilize their quality training, the results have proven to be beneficial to both the employee and more
importantly - to the customer. At our Production Centers, quality issues are tracked on a weekly basis and
evaluated by management.
DataProse has constructed the Production Centers to have key checkpoints throughout the facilities where each
job is scanned, and the data is automatically integrated into a database that is available to our customers 24x7.
Automated Document Factory (ADF) has been installed and is an internal platform that provides the ability to
track mail to the piece level versus job level, presenting greater quality and mail piece integrity for our clients.
ADF provides an enhanced level of tracking for documents and related materials for our customers, improving
quality of products produced and operational efficiencies.
DataProse also employs both manual and automate checks to facilitate our total quality management as well.
First there are several manual checks where a print operator may stop and review the output for errors, streaks,
alignment, etc. The insert operators also pause production to review output like checking for sealed envelopes.
We use in house engineers to do regular machine maintenance. We also employ software and hardware audits
to ensure quality. For example, there is software running on each inserter that tracks the total number of
documents in addition to cameras scanning the documents as they process. It's this combination of human,
machine and software, each auditing each other, that provides the highest quality.
Along with manual and automated cross checks by production managers and supervisors, our facilities utilize a
report known as the "JOBS IN PROGRESS" report. This production related report allows management a physical
check -off for all jobs residing within our production centers and aids in maintaining our high -quality standards.
DataProse also utilizes a unique feature known as "storyboards", which follows each and every job throughout
the facility and is a physical reporting tool used to ensure quality processing for all customers. The storyboard
contains specific information related to the job such as SLAs, time stamps, quantities, materials, visual references
for production personnel, and customer information. During each phase of the job, it is scanned into the database
and the personnel or operator is required to initial the physical storyboard.

In summary, the zero defects philosophy encourages everyone to accept no mistakes, delays or rework as a
business practice, but rather to learn from the mistakes, set an obtainable goal, develop a plan to reach that goal
and then raise the goal. As employees utilize their quality training, the results have proven to be beneficial to both
the employee and more importantly - to the customer.
CONFIDENTIALITY & SECURITY
It is the policy of DataProse to ensure the privacy and security of our client's data. Destruction/disposal client
data shall be carried out in accordance with federal and state law and as defined in the organizational retention
policy. The schedule for destruction/disposal shall be suspended for records involved in any open investigation,
audit, or litigation.
In order to protect all client data from an unauthorized access, DataProse systems are secured at many levels,
including 128bit SSL encryption from multiple firewalls, physical and logical segregation of processing systems.
Rights and roles are closely managed and monitored to ensure only those people and systems requiring access,
are granted access.
Finally, DataProse has automated systems pruning non -essential data to ensure data that is not required, is not
retained. Furthermore, the DataProse production facilities are card -key access controlled, 100% monitored by
camera systems. DataProse off -site data centers are controlled in a similar manner with the added protection of
biometric scanning access. DataProse's sophisticated piece level processing and tracking systems (Automated
Document Factory- ADF) is our internal platform that provides the ability to track mail to the piece level versus
job level, presenting greater quality and mail piece integrity for our clients. Every page of every bill or document
is "fingerprinted" with sequencing numbers and characters (piece IDs embedded in our 2D symbology), which
allows 100% integrity of every mail piece. The production centers have key checkpoints throughout the facility
where each job is scanned and the data is automatically integrated into a database and web application (DP
JobTrax) that is available to our customers 24/7. Manual and automated cross checks are deployed throughout
the facility and process and production employees receive monthly bonuses for zero defects. It is this combination
of human, machine and software, each auditing each other, that provides the highest quality.

DATA SECURITY & BUSINESS CONTINUITY PLAN
1. Business Continuity Planning Strategy
Business Continuity Planning (BCP) aims to prevent or minimize damage from disruptions in operations.
DataProse Business Continuity Plans are intended to:
• Prevent a minor incident from becoming a major issue
• Clearly outline roles and responsibilities
• Minimize loss of data and revenue
• Protect the DataProse reputation
• Satisfy the DataProse obligations to its employees, customers, and community
• Comply with applicable laws and regulations
2. DataProse Business Continuity Policy
It is the policy of DataProse that plans are developed and maintained to ensure adequate continuity in
the event of a disaster. DataProse business continuity plans are designed to protect the interest of our
customers, and employees.
3. Assumptions
Not all incidents or events will lead to a disaster declaration. The declaration of a disaster will be reserved
for major system and/or infrastructure failures (network, facility or computer hardware/software) where
initiation of BCP recovery procedures is required.
BCP Plans and recovery procedures are developed around a single disaster or event impacting the
DataProse business -critical functions.
Alternate sites/vendors/resources will be available to DataProse at the time of need.
Qualified personnel in sufficient quantities are available to perform recovery activities.
Organizations external to DataProse, such as vendors and government agencies will be reasonably
cooperative during the recovery period.
4. Recovery Sites
Our DataProse business continuity strategy integrates alternate DataProse facilities (Coppell, TX. and
Sacramento, CA) and 3rd Party Alternate Work Site Agreements.
5. Recovery Strategy
Recovery facilities are stand-alone production facilities encompassing statement production,
warehousing and administrative departments. All plans are developed so that work can be moved from
facility to facility and in this way, serve to back one another up.
Business Continuity Plans are consistent with the following steps:
Declaration:
DataProse will communicate to all customers that a disaster has been declared and that DataProse is
operating in disaster recovery mode.
DataProse will be responsible for vendor notification - obtaining additional forms and materials for
transport to the alternate processing facilities.
All statements from the impacted facility will be transferred and processed through one of the alternate
processing facilities where printing, inserting and mailing functions will take place.
Data Transmission:
Upon a disaster declaration by DataProse, customers will not need to make any change to their statement
file transmission method. Customers with dedicated circuits would have to provide statement data via
tape or over the Internet. (DataProse will provide assistance to those customers wishing to use the
Internet to ensure connectivity).
31
DATAp7'OSe
Printing:
Printing will be performed by the alternate processing facilities or the third -party print and mail vendor.
DataProse will attempt to use all available custom forms; however, we may elect to use plain white forms
without logos to ensure mail is processed in as timely a manner as possible.
DataProse will make every attempt in a disaster to print utilizing the same type/model of printers as used
in non -disaster situations but may elect not to provide highlight color or full business color as an option.
Inserting:
Inserting will be performed by the alternate processing facilities or the third -party print and mail vendor.
Custom inserts will not be included as part of the inserting process. Dynamically created inserts can be
included. The decision to include/not to include inserts will be reviewed as the resumption process
continues.
DataProse will continue to handle and be responsible for special handling needs - processing holds, etc.
Generic carrier and remit envelopes will be used at the onset of the disaster declaration. The decision to
include/not to include custom carrier and remit envelopes will be reviewed as the resumption process
continues.
Zip Sorting:
DataProse will continue to process mail pieces in zip code order for presentment to the USPS to ensure
the best Postal rate is achieved.
DataProse will provide a report of volume for work processed each day.
Production Services:
DataProse will continue to perform job reconciliation and postage payment functions.
DataProse will continue to perform reprint capabilities.
Warehousing:
All incoming, receiving, and warehousing functions will be performed by the alternate processing facilities
or the third -party print and mail vendor.
6. Client Communications
As part of a comprehensive communications plan that outlines the management, escalation and
communication processes during a disaster situation, the facility general manager will coordinate
communications to its internal customers. Working together and in accordance with the overall business
continuity plans, communications will share information and/or impacts with clients as timely as is
possible.

Place the DataProse web service's url, "http://dpdocs.dataprose.com/dpdocumentssvcv3/dpdocuments.asmx" in
the "Url" input box and then name the reference in the Web reference name input box. Assuming the reference is named
"dpWebService", the code to instantiate the web service will look like the snippet below.
The method to call in the web service is SearchResultsString.
dpWebService.DpDocumentsss = new dpWebService.DpDocuments ();
string xmlfeed = ss.SearchResultsString(
"test",
"test",
"Account_Number like'0100%"",
"Bill_date",
100,
8);
XmlDocument xDoc = new XmlDocument();
xDoc. LoadXml(xmlfeed);

string Archivename: This is the archive that client wants to query. If it is left empty or null, web service will search an
archive that is same as the client code.
string solQuery: This parameter acts like a where clause in SQL. An example is "Account_Number like'010%"'. The value
being passed into the condition must be surrounded by single quotes. Operators that can be used are "like", "=", ">" etc
etc.
string sortCriteria: Specifies what column client wants to sort result set by. "Bill_date" is a common sorting column.
