This is a customization and patch specification document for the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) relating to uniform embellishments and identification markers for MBTA personnel. The document details specifications for multiple patch and embroidery designs intended for Fare Engagement Representatives (FER), Operating Personnel, and classification-designated staff. FER patches include rectangle and shield designs with yellow/gold backgrounds and black merrowed borders. Operating Personnel patches comprise a Circle T patch with white reflective material and dark red/maroon borders, a Flag Patch featuring the USA flag in standard colors, and various T Circle embroidery options for ball caps and winter hats. New Classification Patches are available in small and large shield-with-banner designs with black merrowed borders and multi-colored rayon thread elements. All patches utilize PVC backing materials, and embroidery options are specified in white on various garment types.

The document provides detailed placement specifications for all patches and embroidered designs across uniform garments, including sleeve placements, chest placements, pant leg placements, and reflective stripe configurations. Placement examples demonstrate positioning for 10-inch reflective stripes on the upper back, 4-inch reflective stripes on upper body garments, Circle T patches on left sleeves, Flag patches on right sleeves, and embroidered logos on left chest areas. Dimensions are specified in inches for all patches, with maximum widths ranging from 1 inch to 4 inches and maximum heights ranging from 1 inch to approximately 4 inches.
