Electronic Marquee Sign with Installation

The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is seeking competitive bids for a comprehensive electronic marquee sign procurement and installation project. The specific procurement involves acquiring Daktronics Brand GS6 Series 15.85 mm Full-Color Message Displays, with a primary focus on complete installation services that include sign base, posts, and Smokey Bear branding elements. The initial contract scope involves purchasing and installing one sign located in Minocqua, Wisconsin, with potential for subsequent purchases through a flexible contract structure. The solicitation is structured as a one-year contract with provisions for two additional one-year renewals, allowing ongoing flexibility for the DNR. Interested vendors must submit their proposals by June 24, 2025, with the initial posting having occurred on June 3, 2025. While specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the provided documentation, vendors can expect standard considerations such as technical capabilities, installation expertise, product quality, and pricing competitiveness.

The contract opportunity appears to be open to all qualified vendors without specific set-aside designations or explicit restrictions on organizational types. Outagamie County is identified as a jurisdictional context, though the initial sign installation is specified for Minocqua. The procurement does not indicate predetermined budget ranges or precise award values, suggesting potential variability based on vendor proposals and specific technical requirements. No incumbent vendors or existing technological infrastructure requirements are mentioned in the available documentation. The contract's structure suggests potential for multiple sign installations beyond the initial Minocqua location, which could represent a significant opportunity for vendors with appropriate signage and installation capabilities. Prospective bidders should carefully review the full solicitation details and be prepared to demonstrate comprehensive capabilities in electronic display technology, installation services, and branding integration.
