A sole source, firm fixed price contract will be awarded.

3. A description of the supplies or services required to meet the agency’s needs.

WAPA is currently on contract with ABB’s DataGlance ArcPlus add-on software product, which is customized to their nMarket system and fully integrated with the nMarket database.
