Aquatics Center Video Display/Scoreboard

Brunswick Community College is requesting proposals for a video display/scoreboard for the Aquatics Center at the Dinah E. Gore Sports & Aquatics Complex, with proposals due November 3, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. EST. The system must be fully compatible with and interface with the College's existing eight-lane Colorado Time Systems Gen7 Serial Timer running Gen7 Swimming Version 2024.0.1 — the critical technical filter.

The scope calls for a full-color video display with graphics and animation capabilities, measuring approximately 7 feet by 11 feet, designed to withstand pool-environment conditions. The vendor must provide turnkey installation including shipping, delivery, handling, assembly, and setup at the specified location in Bolivia, North Carolina within 30 consecutive calendar days after purchase order receipt during business hours (7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., Monday–Friday). All pricing must be all-inclusive with Free-On-Board destination delivery.

The contract term runs from final contract execution through completion of installation with sign-off by the College. Warranty coverage must be a minimum of 12 months from equipment operation date or the manufacturer's warranty, whichever is longer, covering all defective parts replacement, labor, freight, and technician travel at no cost to the state. The vendor must be authorized by the manufacturer to distribute and install the products and must provide three customer references for the exact model offered, demonstrating experience with similar-sized public or private sector clients.

Evaluation criteria in descending order of importance are: vendor qualifications, compatibility with the Colorado Timing System, pricing, ease of use, timeliness of project timeline adherence, and warranties. All vendors must be registered in good standing with the North Carolina Secretary of State. Written questions are due October 21, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. EST, with responses provided by October 27, 2026. The College reserves the right to reject all proposals or make separate awards to different vendors if deemed advantageous.
