☒ 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 Civil War Navy exhibit schematics and floor plans and templates have been created by Healy Kohler and the museum exhibit preparation for new sections must match the already designed sections of the exhibit. This is to include the Kydex color/patterns that are no longer available for purchase. Using another design would adversely affect the professional standardized decorum of the museum. Which in turn would adversely affect the museums mission and reputation.

☐ A patent, copyright or proprietary data limits competition.

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