The supplies or services must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit and function) with existing systems presently installed/performing. Describe the equipment/function you have now and how the new item/service must coordinate, connect, or interface with the existing system.

The Naval Academy athletic program has standardized the look and functionality of all scoreboards and play/shot clocks at our athletic venues in order to have consistency in functionality and appearance at these venues. This allows coaches and athletic staff to utilize equipment at various venues without having to be trained on how to operate multiple systems. It also provides consistency across our maintenance contracts for this equipment. Additionally, we will be utilizing existing scoreboard poles at this project that are compatible with the Daktronics scoreboard.

There are no identified barriers to competition. The only distinguishing factor is that the vendor must be an authorized reseller of Daktronics products.

A patent, copyright or proprietary data limits competition.

Not applicable.

These are "direct replacement" parts/components for existing equipment.

Not applicable.
