Daktronics DMS Controllers

The Florida Department of Transportation is seeking to purchase Daktronics dynamic message board controllers and power supplies. The department is requesting information from prospective vendors regarding their ability to supply these commodities. The intended source is Daktronics, Inc, and the estimated dollar amount is $700,000. The justification for single source acquisition is that the Daktronics components are proprietary and specifically designed to operate with existing Daktronics infrastructure. • The contract is for a period of three years • The department is seeking 100 Daktronics dynamic message board controllers and power supplies • The components must meet exact hardware, firmware, and communication specifications to ensure proper functionality and system compatibility • Use of non-Daktronics components would compromise system performance and introduce unacceptable operational and safety risks
