CITY OF DENTON TEXAS FIRE DEPARTMENT
To Demse Harpool, Assistant Purchasing Agent
From Captain Eldon Harral
Date January 28, 1997
Re Firefighter Station Uniforms
On further review and research of the bid submitted by Ferrara Fire
Equipment, we find the garment does not meet the specifications of the
Denton Fire Department for the following reasons
IV page 1
Failure to provide an exception list to specifications from factory or vendor
IX page 2
Pants specifications B-3 heavy duty flame resistant shirtlock strip on
waistband not used by low bidder C4 sample garment did not have
reinforcing layer of "heel" at the bottom of front pockets C6 post -cure for
permanent press by the Nomex autoclave method This method enhances the
permanent press characteristics of the garment Not used
X page 5
Shuts are made of post -guard fabric, which after construction will be
autoclaved to retain it's permanent finish Autoclave is not a process in
which this manufacturer uses For these reasons we decline and will accept
next lowest bid for firefighters station umforms submitted by Casco
Industries, Inc
