About this file
This is a Sole Source Justification document related to a Stadium Radar System and Game Software procurement by the State of New Mexico. The justification addresses the procurement of a specialized radar system and associated game software for stadium applications. The document outlines the technical requirements and project scope necessary to support the stadium's operational needs. Specific details regarding quantities, response deadlines, bidder meetings, site visits, and contract award dates are documented within the justification to support the determination that a sole source procurement approach is appropriate for this particular acquisition.
The justification establishes the rationale for circumventing the competitive bidding process by demonstrating that only one vendor possesses the unique technical capabilities, proprietary technology, and specialized expertise required to deliver the stadium radar system and game software. The document likely details the funding source, budget allocation, and contract term associated with this sole source award. By providing comprehensive documentation of why competition is impractical or impossible for this specific procurement, the State of New Mexico justifies the procurement method and demonstrates compliance with state procurement regulations governing sole source awards.

Prospective Contractor
TrackMan Inc., 1010 Washington Blvd., 9th Floor, Stamford, CT 06901.
Contact: John Olshan, General Manager, Baseball.
Phone: (203) 274-5984.
Contract Amount
Total estimated contract value before tax: $61,250.00. This consists of a $25,000 initiation fee, a prorated 2026 license fee of $7,500, a 2027 license fee of $8,750, a 2028 license fee of $10,000, and a 2029 license fee of $10,000.
Contract Term
Upon completion of installation through December 31, 2029.
Detailed Scope of Work
NMMI seeks to procure a complete TrackMan Baseball Stadium Tracking System consisting of proprietary radar hardware, licensed software, installation services, calibration, training, technical support, maintenance, data quality assurance services, and access to the TrackMan baseball data platform and network.
Sole Source Justification
TrackMan Inc. is the exclusive United States distributor and licensing source for the TrackMan Stadium Radar System and TrackMan Game Software. No reseller or third-party contractor is authorized to provide the required proprietary system, licenses, support, and network access.
Uniqueness
The TrackMan system utilizes proprietary and patented optically enhanced radar technology and provides access to the TrackMan data platform and network. These capabilities are substantially related to the intended purpose of the procurement.
Agency Due Diligence
NMMI reviewed available baseball tracking technologies, vendor information, and industry resources. While other systems exist, none can provide the proprietary TrackMan hardware, software licenses, support services, and TrackMan network access required for this procurement.
Therefore, TrackMan Inc. is the only source capable of meeting the requirement.

To Whom It May Concern:
This letter outlines the TrackMan™ Stadium Radar System and Game Software product, which is produced and distributed exclusively by TrackMan A/S, headquartered in Vedbaek, Denmark, and distributed exclusively in the
United States by TrackMan Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of TrackMan A/S.
The TrackMan product is unique from any other product in the market, and we are the only distributor of it.
TrackMan is the only optically enhanced radar (OERT) product on the market that can do all of the following:
• Accurately measure data on pitched and batted ball trajectory from pitcher’s release until landing (e.g., measurements on distance for a 100 yards batted balls are accurate to within 0.3 yards, or 1 foot)
• Measure pitch delivery data, including speed, plate location, spin axis, release points, and ball movement (among other variables)
• Use radar to measure ball spin rate with a patented process
• Make the data collected at New Mexico Military Institute available to TrackMan licensees, which includes MLB clubs
• Measure ball activity at a rate of 20,000 samples per second.
These unique claims can be verified by several influential customers:
• All 30 MLB teams including front office members and coaches
• Major League Baseball Advanced Media
• Perfect Game, USA Baseball and other amateur baseball organizations.
• Other leading universities
Further, TrackMan is a technological leader in its field. We defend our technology and patent our key inventions.
TrackMan’s comprehensive patent portfolio includes granted patents and pending patent applications relating to:
• Comparing a target direction indicated in an image, e.g. by using a camera, with the ball direction determined by radar. (US2009/0295624, EP1763683, CN1981207B, KR7002764/2007 and JP2008/504534)
• Measuring spin rate of sport balls by radar using multiple harmonic spectrum traces. (US2009/0075744, EP1698380, DE602006009719.0, GB/EP/1698380, CN101384308A, JP2008/538085A and KR10/0947898)
• Measuring spin axis orientation of sport balls from trajectory measurements by radar. (US2009/0075744, EP1853362, DE602006015036.9, GB/EP/1853362, CN101384308A, JP2008/538085A and KR10/0947898)
