# Flock Safety Past Due Balance INV-81961 The first past-due-balance notice for **Invoice INV-81961** ($120,000.00 for Years 2 & 3 of the 36-month Flock contract, covering 2026–2028). Auto-sent by Flock's collections-automation system (`[email protected]`, "Powered by Jesorio") to Lt. Burningham on 2026-01-06; Burningham forwards immediately to **Celeste Phillips** (CPD admin) with the single line "Have they been paid?". Six near-identical past-due notices appear in the production (`Flock Safety INV-81961 Past Due Balance-Redacted.pdf` and `(1)`–`(5)`), suggesting the bill remained unpaid through at least the first half of 2026. The invoice attachment also surfaces Flock's banking details, W-9, and a current Certificate of Liability Insurance. ## What's inside - **Past-due notice email** (2026-01-06): "INV-81961 is currently outstanding on your account for a total balance of $120,000.00." - **Burningham's forward to Celeste Phillips** the same afternoon: "Have they been paid?" - **Invoice INV-81961** itself, attached: - Invoice Date: **12/16/2025** · Due Date: **12/16/2025** · Payment Terms: **Due on receipt** - Bill To / Ship To: **AR - Conway PD, 1105 Prairie Street, Conway, Arkansas 72032** - Billing Contact: **Andrew Burningham** at `[email protected]` - Notes field: **"AR - Conway PD: Year 2 & 3 of 36 Month Term, 2026 - 2028"** - Line item: "Flock Safety LPR, fka Falcon $6,000.00 $0.00 $120,000.00" - Subtotal $120,000.00 · Tax $0.00 · Credit $0.00 · Payments $0.00 · **Balance Due $120,000.00** - PO# field: blank - **Flock_Payment_Info.pdf** attached: remittance addresses (PO Box 121923 Dallas TX; or LBX# 891923, 1501 N. Plano Rd, Richardson TX) and ACH details: - Account Legal Name: Flock Group Inc · Account Type: Checking · Account Opening Date: **03/06/2017** · Bank: **Silicon Valley Bank**. (The ACH block on the invoice also carries a bank account number and a routing / SWIFT identifier; per the AGENTS.md surveillance-PII rule those values are not reproduced in the wiki.) - **Flock_Safety_COI_2024 - 2025.pdf** attached: ACORD Certificate of Liability Insurance, certificate number SEA-003920730-05, issued by **Marsh Risk & Insurance Services** (San Francisco), insurers Travelers, Charter Oak Fire, Homeland Insurance of NY. Coverage period **08/23/2024 – 08/23/2025**. CGL each-occurrence $1M / general aggregate $2M; Umbrella $10M / $10M; E&O / Cyber 730000029-0000 (SIR $100K). - **Flock_W9_-March24_REV.pdf** attached: W-9 dated **4/10/2024**, "Flock Group, Inc." DBA "Flock Safety", remittance address PO BOX 121923 Dallas TX 75312-1923, business address 1170 Howell Mill Rd NW Ste 210, Atlanta GA 30318. TIN redacted in the production. ## Key takeaways - **The bill is for $120,000 covering "Year 2 & 3 of 36 Month Term, 2026 - 2028."** Reconciling against the [[Flock Safety Order Form and Contract]] (Year 1 $60K, $60K annual recurring, $180K total): the invoice's unit price of $6,000 × 20 cameras = $120,000 for **one** year; the notes-field reference to "Year 2 & 3" is plausibly a clerical conflation. If the invoice is for **one** year ($120K vs. the contract's $60K/year), the per-camera annual fee has **doubled** ($3,000/yr nominal in the contract vs. $6,000/yr on the invoice). A follow-up would pull the **other** five `(1)`–`(5)` invoice copies and any later invoice to determine whether this is a rate change, an amendment, or an OCR error. - **Six past-due notices means the bill stayed delinquent.** The production contains the original + five `(1)`–`(5)` variants for INV-81961. The dunning system re-sends; CPD did not promptly resolve the past-due status. Whether the payment was eventually made, by what authorization, and from what funding source (general fund, asset-forfeiture, grant) is the open question for [[Asset-Forfeiture Funding for Surveillance Procurement]]. The **PO# field is blank** — there is no purchase-order number on the invoice, consistent with the deployment having occurred outside a competitive-bid procurement. - **Burningham asks Phillips "Have they been paid?"** — the contract's "Accounts Payable Contact" did not know whether the agency had paid the bill. He had to escalate to Celeste Phillips. This implies the actual financial controls (decision to pay, funding source, ACH-vs-check, etc.) sit with someone in the [[Conway PD Command Admin Cohort]] (Phillips), not with Burningham — and not with the City of Conway Purchasing Manager or City Finance. The full payment-processing chain is **not** visible in this forward; whether Phillips kicked it up to City Finance, to the Mayor's Office, or to CPD's own command staff is an open follow-up. - **Flock Group Inc. banks at Silicon Valley Bank.** The invoice's ACH remittance block identifies Silicon Valley Bank as Flock Group Inc.'s bank; the account was opened 03/06/2017. SVB was seized by the FDIC in March 2023 and acquired by First Citizens Bank, which preserves the SVB routing under its own ownership — so a 2025 invoice still presenting SVB remittance details may reflect operational lag. (The bank account number and routing number themselves are not reproduced here, per the surveillance-PII rule.) - **Flock's insurance posture** is robust on paper: $10M Umbrella, Cyber/E&O with $100K SIR, Workers Comp at statutory limits. The Cyber policy is the relevant line for the data-breach question CPD's Council asked about in April 2026 (see [[Flock Cameras Apr 2026 City Council QA Thread]]). ## People and orgs mentioned - [[Lt. Andrew Burningham]] — billed contact; forwards the notice asking about payment status. - [[Celeste Phillips]] — CPD admin, escalation recipient. - [[Flock Safety, Inc.]] — vendor (Flock Group Inc. dba Flock Safety). - **Marsh Risk & Insurance Services** — Flock's COI producer. - **Travelers Property Casualty Company of America** — Flock's CGL insurer. - **Homeland Insurance Company of New York** — Flock's E&O / Cyber insurer. ## Concepts invoked - [[Asset-Forfeiture Funding for Surveillance Procurement]] - [[Flock Camera-as-a-Service Procurement Model]] ## Events documented - *2025-12-16 — Invoice INV-81961 issued ($120,000, noted "Year 2 & 3 of 36 Month Term").* - *2026-01-06 — Burningham forwards the past-due notice to [[Celeste Phillips]] with "Have they been paid?"* ## Cross-references - [[Flock Safety Order Form and Contract]] — the underlying 36-month contract. - [[Conway PD Command Admin Cohort]] — Celeste Phillips's wider cohort. - [[Flock Cameras Apr 2026 City Council QA Thread]] — the April 2026 thread where Council questions about Flock data breaches surface. ## Open questions / follow-ups 1. **What was the funding source?** Item 4 of the original FOIA asked for asset-forfeiture authorizations specifically. The invoice has no PO#, no Mayor's-Office authorizing signature, no City Finance interaction visible. The full payment trail (which fund? which authorization?) is **the open follow-up #2**. 2. **Did the bill ever get paid?** Six past-due notices through ~early 2026 suggest the bill was unpaid for an extended period. A later invoice with "paid" status or a subsequent payment confirmation email would close this question; the corpus does not surface either yet. 3. **Why $6,000/camera/year vs. $3,000 on the contract?** Reconcile the unit-price discrepancy: re-examine the (1)–(5) past-due variants and any non-past-due invoice (`Flock Safety Invoice.pdf`, `Flock Safety Invoice (1).pdf`) to determine whether there was a contract amendment, a multi-year billing, or an OCR misread. 4. **Celeste Phillips's role and authority.** She is the escalation recipient when Burningham's contract goes past-due. What is her formal title? An open follow-up — her [[Conway PD Command Admin Cohort]] page documents her appearances in the correspondence.
