# Flock Safety, Inc. The Atlanta-based **automatic-license-plate-reader (ALPR) vendor** that supplies Conway PD's 20-camera deployment. Legal entity: **Flock Group Inc.** doing business as **Flock Safety**. Address 1170 Howell Mill Rd NW, Ste 210, Atlanta GA 30318. Banking at Silicon Valley Bank (account opened 03/06/2017). The central counterparty for the entire Conway investigation: every contract, every camera, every audit log, every shared network, every federal-LE lookup in the production touches Flock's platform. Flock also appears in the corpus as a **prospective** vendor in a second jurisdiction: at the [[Fayetteville Police Department]] (`PD-2026-1484`), Flock has run an extended sales courtship — an on-site demo, a camera deployment plan, and tiered pricing for a roughly $435,000 three-year package — that, as of that production, had not produced a signed contract. See [[Flock Safety Procurement Courtship]]. > [!info] Flock in the ASP corpus (2026-07-07 internal comms) > The [[Arkansas State Police]] ELSAG production touches Flock in two ways. First, **ASP accesses Flock data**: the Fusion Center's analyst-access checklist provisions an ASP analyst into Flock alongside ELSAG, Motorola LPR, ATLAS, and ACIC — the corpus's first evidence ASP taps Flock ([[Cross-Network Analyst Access and the Arkansas State Fusion Center]], `RE_ Justin Dennis - Additional Analyst Support_ ICP Accesses (1).msg`). Second, **ELSAG competes against Flock**: Leonardo pitched [[Street Sentry (ELSAG Solar ALPR)|Street Sentry]] to LRPD as a lower-lifecycle-cost Flock alternative, and ASP internal FOIA reasoning notes Flock is "different, because they list their camera locations on their transparency website" ([[Citizen Flock FOIA and ASP Withholding Strategy]]). ## People Flock personnel identified in the Conway PD corpus: - [[Brittney Hall]] — Territory Sales Manager (Arkansas); contract execution. - [[Skylar Lindner]] — Senior Project Manager - Core, Arkansas; deployment and installation. - [[Melissa Lee]] — Customer Success Manager; onboarding and training. - [[Garrett Yosenick]] — Project Manager (Majors); carried the 20-camera deployment through ARDOT permitting to completion. - [[Gena Hatch]] — Customer Success Manager; routed the Home Depot camera-share request and the April 2026 Council information-security reply. - [[Danica Pierce]] — Onboarding Specialist; sent the 2026-03 Home Depot state-wide camera-share announcement. - [[LaShaunda Stafford]], [[Brittnie Hendrix]], [[Aly Bolick]] — Flock team members named on the 2025-01-23 onboarding email; specific roles not stated in the corpus. - "Ashley" — Flock Safety first-line support; named only by given name, so no entity page. Flock personnel identified in the Fayetteville PD corpus (active procurement courtship): - [[Jason Lanthier]] — Account Executive; the early Fayetteville deployment plan and tiered pricing. - [[Houston Whatley]] — Territory Sales Manager (Texas); Fayetteville point of contact from early 2026; also copied on Conway's deployment-update thread. - [[James Allen]] — Account Executive; assembled the spring 2026 Fayetteville proposal. Per the [[2026-05 Bounce-Scope Diagnostic]] header scan, **43 unique `@flocksafety.com` addresses** appear in the 389 `.msg` Conway production; the lists above are the named, corpus-anchored subset. ## Roles in this corpus - **Vendor of record** on the executed [[Flock Safety Order Form and Contract]] (36-month / 20-camera / $180,000). - **Platform operator** for the Conway PD deployment — provides the ALPR cameras (Flock Safety Falcon), the cloud platform, the audit-log system, the network-sharing infrastructure, and the customer-success / project-management / support workflows. - **Coordinator** of multi-party data-sharing arrangements — e.g., the [[Home Depot Camera Sharing Series]] state-wide rollout was Flock-executed, not directly THD-to-PD-bilateral. - **Exporter** of regulatory-style audit deliverables — the [[Federal Searches CSV]], the [[SharedNetworks 2025-12-17 Snapshot]], and the [[Conway PD Audit Logs Series]] are all Flock-platform-generated artifacts produced for Conway PD's internal or FOIA-response use. - **Information-security counterparty** — when the Conway City Council asked about data-breach exposure in April 2026, Conway PD turned to Flock for the talking points. See [[Flock Cameras Apr 2026 City Council QA Thread]]. - **Prospective vendor at a second jurisdiction** — at the [[Fayetteville Police Department]], Flock is the competing ALPR vendor in an active procurement courtship against [[Axon Enterprise, Inc.]]; the same Arkansas sales personnel ([[Brittney Hall]], [[Melissa Lee]]) appear on the Fayetteville demo invitation. See [[Flock Safety Procurement Courtship]]. ## Notes - Legal entity is "Flock Group, Inc."; trade name "Flock Safety." Verified against W-9 (dated 4/10/2024) attached to [[Flock Safety Past Due Balance INV-81961]] and the Order Form cover page. - Insurance posture as of 08/2024–08/2025 (per Marsh-issued COI in INV-81961): CGL $1M/$2M; Auto $1M CSL; Umbrella $10M; Workers Comp statutory; Errors & Omissions / Cyber with $100K SIR. Carriers: Travelers, Charter Oak Fire, Homeland Insurance of NY. - The vendor's published self-positioning around information security (ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, NIST 800-53, Secure By Design CISA principles, MFA default since Nov 2024) is captured in the [[Flock Cameras Apr 2026 City Council QA Thread]] attached one-pager. Those remain vendor assertions. Public vulnerability records, vendor responses, CISA KEV status, and the Condor exposure dispute are independently archived and bounded at [[Vendor Information Security Posture]]. ## Public technical context audited 2026-07-20 The current public source record shows Flock marketing a broader surveillance stack than the Arkansas ALPR contracts alone: Condor video and Wing gateways ([[Flock Condor Video and Wing Gateways]]), Audio Detection/Raven ([[Flock Audio Detection and Raven]]), vehicle/people/association analytics ([[Flock Search and Association Analytics]]), and Alpha drone services ([[Flock Alpha and DJI Dock 3]]). Reverse engineering, component records, installation drawings, patents, and CVEs are model-, revision-, build-, or embodiment-specific; [[Flock Hardware Evidence Boundaries]] prevents those sources from becoming a universal architecture claim. > [!important] Arkansas deployment boundary > The Tier-1 Arkansas corpus establishes agency-specific Falcon/LPR contracts, “vehicle fingerprint” procurement, sharing/audit behavior, alert records, and installation/permitting facts. It does **not** currently establish Arkansas purchase or activation of Condor, Wing, Raven/Audio Detection, Alpha, DJI Dock 3, FreeForm, people search, Convoy, Multi-Geo, Visual Search, hotspots, or Nova. Public catalog availability is not Arkansas conduct. The 2026 accuracy audit also narrows two common claims. The Sherwood record proves one consequential one-character Flock misread and failed pre-stop physical verification; it does not produce a fleet-wide error rate. The LAPD OIG audit documents a mixed-vendor program with retention, access, list-freshness, and outcome-recording failures; it is not a controlled Flock OCR study. See [[ALPR Error Layers and Outcome Measurement]]. ## Little Rock — the third jurisdiction footprint (CLR-2026-778) The [[sources/city-of-little-rock/CLR-2026-778/_overview|CLR-2026-778]] production extends Flock's documented Arkansas footprint to a third jurisdiction: **[[Little Rock Police Department]]**. Per Resolution 16,846 (October 21, 2025), Little Rock entered into an **initial Flock contract in 2020** — making LRPD the **earliest** documented Flock customer in the corpus by approximately five years. Subsequent renewals are documented at Resolution 15,892 (Feb 7, 2023), Resolution 16,489 (Nov 4, 2024), and Resolution 16,846 (Oct 21, 2025). | Conway PD | Fayetteville PD | Little Rock PD | |---|---|---| | 20 Flock Falcon cameras since 2025 | Active courtship; no executed contract | 115 Flock Falcon cameras since 2020 | | $180,000 / 3 years ($60K/yr) | Proposed ~$435,000 / 3 years | $690,000 / 2 years ($345K/yr) | | Asset-forfeiture funded (Ord. O-25-09) | TBD | General fund (Account 105225-63360) | | 30-day retention | TBD | 30-day retention | | Reseller: direct Flock | Direct sales pitched | **Reseller: Insight Public Sector** (OMNIA Partners #23-6692-03) | | Notice contact: [[Lt. Andrew Burningham]] | TBD | Notice contact: **Major [[Brittany Gunn]]** | | Funding-source pattern: asset forfeiture + sole-source ordinance | TBD | Funding-source pattern: cooperative-purchasing vehicle + Board resolution | LRPD is the largest documented Flock customer in the corpus by camera count (~6× Conway's), by per-year cost (~6×), and by deployment age (since 2020 vs Conway's 2025). It is also the corpus's primary example of Flock LPR cameras tasked to an *operational* Real-Time Crime Center — see [[Real-Time Crime Center (RTCC)]] and [[Fusus]] for the RTCC integration target. LRPD also documents a **Master Service Agreement § 4.4 that expressly incorporates the [[Arkansas Automatic License Plate Reader System Act]]** — making the LRPD Flock MSA the corpus's clearest documentary anchor for Flock contractual acceptance of state ALPR-statute terms (150-day retention cap; OMV/ACIC/NCIC/FBI comparison-only; audit-log discipline). See [[Flock LPR Renewal (Resolution 16846)]] for full contract analysis. The LRPD-Flock relationship reveals additional Flock personnel beyond the Arkansas-sales subset documented in Conway and Fayetteville: **Shane Hanna** (Insight Public Sector sales contact on the OMNIA quote) and the Major **[[Brittany Gunn]]** Notice-contact relationship on the LRPD MSA. The Tier-3 archived Arkansas Times reporting on the LRPD Flock renewal (archived 2026-05-19 in `web archive/2026-05-19/arktimes.com/`) reports the camera count as **116**; the corpus Tier-1 documents (Resolution 16,846 and the Insight Public Sector quote) report **115**. The discrepancy is noted on [[Flock LPR Renewal (Resolution 16846)]]; the corpus figure controls in the wiki. ## Arkansas State Police and Bald Knob — documented ELSAG alternatives to Flock On 2026-06-05, the [[Arkansas State Police]] produced batch 1 of its rolling FOIA response (Item 1 / Fiscal Section / procurement records). The headline analytical finding: **ASP did NOT select Flock.** ASP procured **ELSAG ALPR Systems** from [[Leonardo US Cyber and Security Solutions, LLC]] (via reseller [[John Wright Associates, Inc.]]) through State Term Contract 4600055190, drawn against a Texas Region 14 ESC NCPA cooperative-purchasing contract. Two POs documented: $481K (2024-08-19) for the initial system and $18.5K (2025-02-24) for additional cameras. See [[_overview|the ASP `2026-06-05-batch-1-fiscal` production overview]]. ASP is the corpus's first documented **state-agency** ELSAG deployment, but the 2026-07-21 Item-5 ingest establishes that [[Bald Knob Police Department]] bought a smaller ELSAG package earlier in 2024 with DPS grant `24PSEG010`: three Street Sentry units and one Plate Hunter patrol-unit system for $47,693.50 ([[Bald Knob ELSAG Grant Budget Proposal]], p. 1, "SUBTOTAL $47,693.50"; [[Bald Knob DPS Equipment Grant Reporting Form]], p. 1, "24PSEG010"). With Sherwood separately documented, Flock's corpus footprint includes Conway PD, Fayetteville PD's courtship, LRPD, PCSO, and Sherwood PD; the two ELSAG purchases show that Flock's Arkansas LE-market presence is not exclusive. Bald Knob's equipment was reported received but not installed on 2024-03-08, so later operation remains unverified. | Conway PD | Fayetteville PD | Little Rock PD | Pulaski County SO | **Arkansas State Police** | |---|---|---|---|---| | 20 Flock Falcon cameras since 2025 | Active courtship; no executed contract | 115 Flock Falcon cameras since 2020 | 6 Flock Falcon cameras since 2023 | **ELSAG cameras (25+ F4 base + Street Sentry components); deployment from 2025** | | $180,000 / 3 years ($60K/yr) | Proposed ~$435,000 / 3 years | $690,000 / 2 years ($345K/yr) | $36,900 / 2-3 years (~$18K/yr) | **$500K total (Term Contract drawn fully)** | | Asset-forfeiture funded (Ord. O-25-09) | TBD | General fund | General fund | **Federal ARPA pass-through (A.0960.ARPERR)** | | 30-day retention | TBD | 30-day retention | 30-day retention | **Customer-controlled; retention period not yet documented** | | Reseller: direct Flock | Direct sales pitched | Insight Public Sector (OMNIA Partners) | Direct Flock (no reseller) | **John Wright Associates (Texas Region 14 ESC / NCPA)** | | Procurement track: sole-source language laundering | TBD | Cooperative-purchasing vehicle | Competitive RFP through ARBid | **Cooperative-purchasing vehicle (NCPA)** | The ASP procurement extends the **[[Cooperative Purchasing Vehicle]]** track now documented at LRPD and ASP — making it the corpus's most-common procurement-track class for surveillance-adjacent buys. ## Pulaski County (PCSO) — the fourth jurisdiction footprint (#26-365) The [[_overview|`#26-365`]] production from the Pulaski County Government adds a fourth documented Arkansas jurisdiction: **[[Pulaski County Sheriff's Office]]**. Per Contract #6764 (executed 2023-11-28), PCSO leases **6 Flock Falcon cameras** at **$3,000/camera/year × 6 = $18,000/year recurring** + $977.63 one-time startup, on a 24-month initial term (per the Order Form) / 3-year initial term (per the Award Letter, August 21, 2023 – July 20, 2026). **Contract total $36,900** per the executed MSA Order Form. | Conway PD | Fayetteville PD | Little Rock PD | **Pulaski County SO** | |---|---|---|---| | 20 Flock Falcon cameras since 2025 | Active courtship; no executed contract | 115 Flock Falcon cameras since 2020 | **6 Flock Falcon cameras since 2023** | | $180,000 / 3 years ($60K/yr) | Proposed ~$435,000 / 3 years | $690,000 / 2 years ($345K/yr) | **$36,900 / 2-3 years (~$18K/yr)** | | Asset-forfeiture funded (Ord. O-25-09) | TBD | General fund (Account 105225-63360) | **General fund (Account 3015-0400-3073)** | | 30-day retention | TBD | 30-day retention | **30-day retention** | | Reseller: direct Flock | Direct sales pitched | Reseller: Insight Public Sector (OMNIA Partners) | **Direct Flock (no reseller)** | | Notice contact: [[Lt. Andrew Burningham]] | TBD | Notice contact: Major [[Brittany Gunn]] | **Notice contact: [[Joe Garza]]** | | Procurement track: sole-source language laundering ([[Sole-Source Procurement Language Avoidance]]) | TBD | Cooperative-purchasing vehicle ([[Cooperative Purchasing Vehicle]]) | **[[Competitive RFP Procurement (Arkansas Counties)|Competitive RFP through ARBid]]** | PCSO is the **smallest documented Flock customer** in the corpus by camera count and contract value — and the **first competitively-bid Arkansas Flock procurement**. The RFP-23-003 procurement is also the corpus's first documented Flock head-to-head competition against [[Utility Associates]], [[John Wright Associates, Inc.]], and [[Insight LPR, LLC]]. Flock won unanimously across 5 PCSO evaluators with a composite score of 100/100 (vs. Utility 45, John Wright 35, Insight LPR 20). PCSO is also the corpus's second documented [[The Genetec-to-Flock Pre-Flock Transition|Genetec-to-Flock transition]] (after Conway): PCSO operated a [[SkyCop, Inc.]]-installed [[Genetec, Inc.]] AutoVu LPR system from February 2021 (federally PSN-grant-funded) before transitioning to Flock in 2023. The Pulaski County-Flock relationship reveals two additional Flock personnel: **[[Tom Dull]]** (Territory Sales Manager who submitted the original April 2023 bid; succeeded August 1, 2023) and **[[Philip Nanni]]** (Territory Sales Manager who took over the account and finalized the contract) — plus **[[Mark Smith (Flock Safety General Counsel)|Mark Smith]]** (Flock General Counsel; DocuSign-countersigned the executed Order Form 2023-11-28). ## In PDFOI-2026-1874 (LRPD Flock emails) The Little Rock PD production (`PDFOI-2026-1874`) is the corpus's clearest view of Flock's *platform behaviors at operational scale*, distinct from the contract-and-deployment view in the other jurisdictions: - **Deconfliction Advisory as a de-facto search log.** Automated [[Flock Deconfliction Advisory]] emails fire whenever an LRPD hot-list query overlaps another organization's alert, each recording the searching agency, timestamp, and target plate (e.g., "a Flock Safety hot list search was conducted by Little Rock AR PD for target plate" — [[Flock Deconfliction Advisories and the LRPD Sharing Network]], Emails 25-35.pdf p. 418). The advisories also broker cross-agency sharing, stating the overlap "is the responsibility of each individual Alert Owner" rather than agency policy. - **Regional and out-of-state sharing network.** Advisories and pending share requests document an LRPD network reaching [[North Little Rock Police Department]], [[Sherwood Police Department]], and [[Arkansas State Police]] alert owners, plus dozens of out-of-state agencies and state fusion centers requesting Search access ([[Flock Deconfliction Advisories and the LRPD Sharing Network]], Emails 36-63.pdf pp. 655-658). - **Federal-access toggle.** Flock newsletters describe an "Agency-Level Control for Federal Data Sharing" and a year-end "Federal Opt-In" capability, letting agencies decide whether they receive federal-partner data-sharing requests ([[Federal Data-Sharing Controls and Federal-Access Posture]], Emails 36-63.pdf pp. 565, 656). - **Audit controls and their gaps.** New controls include a required offense/NIBRS-type and "Search purpose" field before an ALPR search runs, a "Network Audit" filter surfacing only out-of-state searches, and disclaimer text explaining `***` masking ("the information does exist, but is intentionally only visible to the searching agency"); a documented gap is that confidence-level adjustments "do[] not create audit log entries" ([[Flock Audit and Compliance Controls and Gaps]], Emails 36-63.pdf pp. 556, 564). - **Flock–Axon API rupture.** The production captures the breakdown of the Flock/[[Axon Enterprise, Inc.]] integration ("Axon will no longer support new mutual customers starting July 24, 2025"), bearing on whether LRPD can use its own Flock camera data inside the Axon Fusus RTCC stack ([[Flock-Axon API Dispute and the Dual RTCC Stack]], Emails 25-35.pdf p. 175). - **Council-lobbying coaching.** Flock ran a customer-advocacy webinar, "How to Speak to City Councils: Meeting the Moment with Confidence" (May 20, 2026), for which LRPD's Andre Dyer (Special Investigations Division) registered, and newsletters urged agencies to forward Flock messaging to their councilmembers — a vendor-influence pattern around procurement votes ([[Flock Deconfliction Advisories and the LRPD Sharing Network]], Emails 1-24.pdf p. 16). ## Sherwood false-positive and location production Sherwood PD's PD-2026-502 production documents a Flock OCR result that differed from the physical plate by its final character. The OCR-generated plate returned stolen, producing an armed stop and two handcuffings before officers inspected the physical plate and released the occupants ([[Sherwood Incident and CAD Records]], incident report p. 4). The same production lists 15 exact Sherwood Flock sites ([[Sherwood Flock Camera Locations]], paragraphs 5-19), while leaving platform sharing configuration and the corresponding alert audit entry unproduced. ARDOT L000259 adds Flock's installation/permitting role across those sites. [[Cody Boudreaux]] revised site plans and authored P1915 CO1; [[Garrett Yosenick]] handled completion routing. The City, not Flock, is the local permittee, while Flock appears as contractor and bond party ([[Sherwood Highway 107 Permit P1915]], `1105497_-_Signed_docs.pdf`, p. 2; `SP-06-2025-0042_City_of_Sherwood.pdf`, p. 4). The record also documents a P1855 installation completed before approval of a special permit and unresolved P1871/P1915 closeout chronology ([[Sherwood Permit Completion and Inspection Correspondence]]; [[T009 - Sherwood ALPR Completion and Installation Chronology]]).
