The Fort Pierce Police Department seeks to procure Lexipol’s Law Enforcement Policy Manual, Daily Training Bulletins, Accreditation Workbench Premium, and Policy Onboarding Services through a piggyback purchase under Sourcewell Contract 102325-LXP. Sourcewell competitively solicited and awarded this contract, making it available for use by eligible government agencies. Lexipol has provided the City with a Master Service Agreement and pricing consistent with the awarded Sourcewell contract. The Department has completed and submitted the required Piggyback Purchase Request Form, identifying the vendor, contract, scope of services, and annual cost of $33,792.30 for 131 licensed users. The annual cost of $33,792.30 equates to approximately $258 per licensed user. Future subscription costs will be incorporated into the Police Department’s annual operating budget through the term of the Sourcewell contract.

Lexipol’s policy platform provides standardized, legally vetted policies and daily training bulletins that reduce organizational liability and support compliance with state and national accreditation standards. Lexipol’s platform will modernize the Department’s policy management, ensure legal alignment, and support accreditation compliance.

Upon approval, the City will enter into an annual subscription agreement with Lexipol under the Sourcewell procurement framework, up to the term of the Sourcewell contract. 

The City Attorney's Office has reviewed and approved the piggyback contract as to form and correctness (RLS 26-410).

The City's Purchasing Department has reviewed the piggyback contract and approves procurement. 

The procurement complies with City purchasing policies and state requirements governing cooperative purchasing agreements.

Staff recommends City Commission approval to enter into piggyback contract with Lexipol, LLC. under Sourcewell Contract 102325-LXP.

Alternatively, the City Commission may decline approval; however, the Police Department would not obtain updated policy content, accreditation support tools, or daily training bulletins, which may impact compliance and operational readiness.
