# John Wright Associates, Inc. A Texas-based vendor that submitted a bid in response to [[Pulaski County RFP-23-003 Solicitation and Flock Safety Bid|Pulaski County RFP-23-003]] for the lease of 6 ALPR systems. Address: **1111 W Abram St, Arlington TX 76013**. Phone (817) 459-7001. Fax (817) 459-2515. Toll-free (800) 869-8591. Contact: **Rosie Estrada** (`[email protected]`). The corpus's documentary footprint for John Wright Associates is limited to its participation in RFP-23-003 as a competing bidder. Its substantive bid response was **redacted** from the produced FOIA response (per the file naming convention `_Responses_Evaluations_Redacted`); only the scoring rows survive in the production. ## People - **Rosie Estrada** — contact named on the bid's vendor information. Per-person page not warranted absent further anchoring beyond this single bid touch. ## Roles in this corpus - **Third-place bidder on PCSO RFP-23-003.** Composite score 35.00 (vs. Flock 100, Utility 45, Insight LPR 20) per [[Pulaski County RFP-23-003 Bid Tabulation and Evaluator Scoring|the Supplier Scoring Summary]]. The Quote Bid Tabulation table shows John Wright's Purchase Option pricing at **$53,364** — substantially above Flock's $28,800 and Utility's $22,800. - **Per-evaluator scoring detail** (page 51 of the Responses file, partially garbled by rotated OCR): scores from the 5 PCSO evaluators ranged from 17.5 to 35 on Technical Capabilities (max 35), 10 to 20 on Understanding of Needs (max 20), 8.75 on References (max 8.75), and 0 to 1.5 on Local/Disadvantaged Business (max 5). The Technical-score average across evaluators was below maximum, suggesting the bid was deemed less technically responsive than Flock's. - **The ELSAG ALPR reseller for [[Arkansas State Police|ASP]].** The 2026-06-05 Arkansas State Police production identifies John Wright Associates as the **vendor reseller for [[Leonardo US Cyber and Security Solutions, LLC|Leonardo / ELSAG]]** product line in the Arkansas state-LE market. The connection runs: Leonardo (manufacturer, Greensboro NC) → John Wright Associates (reseller, Arlington TX) → State of Arkansas Term Contract 4600055190 → Arkansas State Police (end user). Two purchase orders are documented: PO 4502235324 ($481K, 2024-08-19) and PO 4502265167 ($18.5K, 2025-02-24). See [[_overview|the ASP `2026-06-05-batch-1-fiscal` production overview]]. - **The ASP-side sales contact at John Wright** is **[[David Pierce]]** (`[email protected]`, 682-718-5564). The PCSO-side contact in the RFP-23-003 bid was Rosie Estrada (`[email protected]`). - **The ASP-side marketing footprint** (page 20 quote letterhead, Tier-1 corpus, `1513_001.pdf`) shows John Wright Associates as a multi-vendor public-safety equipment reseller with marketing for: HAVIS, WHELEN, ProGard, FLIR, Watchguard, NetMotion, SafeFleet, NOPTIC, ELSAG, EXTENDOBED. This wider product list contextualizes the firm as a regional public-safety-equipment vendor, not an LPR-specialist reseller. ## Cross-corpus implication John Wright's appearance in both productions creates a cross-corpus question: **what platform did John Wright propose to PCSO in its RFP-23-003 bid?** The PCSO production redacted the substantive bid content, so it's possible the John Wright bid was for an ELSAG system (the platform they sell in the ASP procurement), or for a different LPR product, or for a vendor-agnostic plate-recognition integration. The corpus does not resolve this; a targeted follow-up FOIA to Pulaski County for the unredacted John Wright bid response would test the cross-corpus tie. ## Notes - John Wright Associates' Arkansas-state-LE relationship is now documented at one agency (ASP, via the ELSAG reseller channel). The firm's relationship (or lack thereof) to other Arkansas LE agencies remains a research-backlog item. - The firm's broader product portfolio (HAVIS / WHELEN / ProGard / FLIR / Watchguard / NetMotion / SafeFleet / NOPTIC / ELSAG / EXTENDOBED) suggests it could be the channel through which ASP also procures non-ALPR vehicle-and-officer equipment. If Roach's offered Motorola/Watchguard dash-camera records (the optional non-ALPR contracts disclosed at the close of the 2026-06-05 12:56 CDT delivery) eventually arrive in the corpus, whether they list John Wright as the Watchguard reseller is a testable cross-corpus question. - Tier-2 web research on John Wright Associates' corporate identity, Texas-business registration, and product line is a backlog item.
