This is a Cooperative Purchasing Agreement (No. 24823) between the State of Washington's Department of Enterprise Services and Applied Concepts, Inc., a Texas corporation doing business as Stalker Radar. The agreement is facilitated through the NASPO ValuePoint cooperative purchasing program, which allows multiple states and eligible entities to participate in a competitively solicited contract for police radar, LIDAR speed enforcement, and accident scene reconstruction equipment and services.
The contract covers radar and LIDAR equipment across multiple product categories including dash-mounted, handheld, and motorcycle-mounted radar systems, as well as speed advisory systems and related accessories. Pricing is based on a 9-10% discount off manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP), with contract prices ranging from around $80 to over $8,900 depending on the specific item.

COOPERATIVE PURCHASING AGREEMENT
NO. 24823
POLICE RADAR/LIDAR SPEED ENFORCEMENT & ACCIDENT SCENE RECONSTRUCTION
FOR
CONTRACT CATEGORY ONE, Group A1 – Speed Enforcement & Group B1 – Speed Advisory Systems
This Cooperative Purchasing Agreement (“Cooperative Purchasing Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between Enterprise Services acting by and through the State of Washington (“Enterprise Services”) and Applied Concepts, Inc., a Texas Corporation, (“Contractor”) and is dated and effective as of September 1, 2024.
R E C I T A L S
A. CONTRACTS FOR GOODS AND/OR SERVICES. Pursuant to Legislative authorization, Enterprise Services, on behalf of the State of Washington, is authorized to develop, solicit, and establish contracts for goods and services to support Washington state agencies. See RCW 39.26.050(1). The Washington State Legislature has authorized Enterprise Services to make these contracts available, pursuant to agreement in which Enterprise Services ensures full cost recovery, to other local or federal government agency or entity, certain public benefit nonprofit organizations, or any tribes located in the State of Washington.
See RCW 39.26.050(1) & (2).
B. COOPERATIVE PURCHASING. The Washington State Legislature also has authorized Enterprise Services, on behalf of the State of Washington, to participate in, sponsor, conduct, or administer certain cooperative purchasing agreements. See RCW 39.26.060(1). Such cooperative purchasing agreements are designed to function as cost-effective and efficient enterprise procurement solutions for Washington state agencies and other specified eligible purchasers, authorized by Enterprise Services, to procure goods and/or services from awarded contractors pursuant to a competitive solicitation process. See
RCW 39.26.060(2).
C. COOPERATIVE PURCHASING – ENTERPRISE SERVICES’ ROLE. In regard to cooperative purchasing, Enterprise Services’ role and responsibility differs depending on whether Enterprise Services, on behalf of the State of Washington, is exercising its authority to participate in an established cooperative purchasing agreement (e.g., join an existing cooperative purchasing agreement and specify the scope of such joinder and eligible purchasers) or is exercising its authority to collaborate, for example, with one or more other states to develop, solicit, and award a cooperative purchasing agreement. See RCW 39.26.060(1).
D. COOPERATIVE PURCHASING – ENTERPRISE SERVICES’ MULTI-STATE PROCUREMENT COLLABORATION THROUGH NASPO VALUEPOINT. One of the approaches that Enterprise Services utilizes to collaborate with other states to develop, solicit, and award a cooperative purchasing agreement, is NASPO ValuePoint. NASPO Cooperative Organization LLC, doing business as NASPO ValuePoint, is a nonprofit subsidiary of the National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO). The NASPO ValuePoint cooperative program is led by state procurement officers from member states. NASPO ValuePoint does not solicit, evaluate, or award cooperative purchasing agreements; rather, NASPO ValuePoint assists
COOPERATIVE PURCHASING AGREEMENT NO. 24823 POLICE RADAR/LIDAR SPEED ENFORCEMENT & ACCIDENT SCENE RECONSTRUCTION 2 states, for an administrative fee, in their multi-state procurement collaboration to design and implement competitively solicited and awarded cooperative purchasing agreements.
E. COOPERATIVE PURCHASING – NASPO VALUEPOINT COOPERATIVE MODEL. Pursuant to the NASPO ValuePoint cooperative model, a designated state serves as the ‘lead state’ to conduct a competitive procurement in compliance with the lead state’s procurement laws and award a cooperative purchasing agreement with a contractor for the specified goods and/or services. States (including the District of Columbia and the organized territories of the United States), including the lead state, then may participate in the awarded cooperative purchasing agreement(s) by executing a participating addendum with the awarded contractor. Until a participating addendum is executed by the applicable state (a ‘participating entity’), no agency or other eligible organization (a ‘purchasing entity’) may purchase any goods and/or services pursuant to the cooperative purchasing agreement. Under Washington law, at the time of the competitive solicitation, states may provide supplemental terms and conditions to inform such state’s use of the resulting cooperative purchasing agreement. In addition, pursuant to their participating addendum, states may require certain administrative terms and conditions (e.g., a vendor management fee for sales within the state, state registration and reporting). Awarded contractors, however, have no obligation to condition execution of a participating addendum on substantive terms and conditions that were not competitively procured.
F. COMPETITIVE SOLICITATION FOR COOPERATIVE PURCHASING AGREEMENT(S). Enterprise Services, with administrative support from NASPO ValuePoint, issued Competitive Solicitation No. 24823 dated January 22, 2024, to solicit bids, by Contract Category and Group, for specified Goods and/or Services collectively referred to as Police Radar/Lidar Speed Enforcement & Accident Scene Reconstruction or Police Radar/Lidar. Pursuant to the Competitive Solicitation, bidders were able to bid for some or all of the specified Contract Categories and Groups that comprised the solicited Goods and/or Services. Nineteen (19) states indicated an intent to utilize the resulting cooperative purchasing agreement.
G. AWARDED CONTRACTOR FOR COOPERATIVE PURCHASING AGREEMENT. Enterprise Services and a multi-state stakeholder team consisting of representatives from Washington, California, Nevada, Oklahoma, and South Carolina, evaluated all responsive bids to the Competitive Solicitation and identified Contractor as an apparent successful bidder for the specified Contract Category(ies) and Group(s) identified above.
H. COOPERATIVE PURCHASING AGREEMENT. The purpose of this Cooperative Purchasing Agreement is to establish commercially reasonable contractual terms and conditions for authorized Purchasing Entities to purchase specified Goods and/or Services from Contractor, as set forth herein.
