Opticom GPS EVP Vehicle Kits

The City of Hollywood is seeking to procure Opticom GPS Emergency Vehicle Preemption (EVP) Vehicle Kits from Transportation Control Systems, the authorized dealer for Miovision Technologies solutions and products in the state of Florida. The kits are required for Fire Rescue emergency vehicles to ensure compatibility with the City's existing Opticom traffic signal preemption system. The procurement is being made as a sole source purchase due to the exclusive distribution rights held by Transportation Control Systems. Key features of the Opticom GPS EVP Vehicle Kits include secure, GPS-based traffic signal preemption, allowing equipped traffic signals to temporarily grant a green phase in the direction of travel during emergency response. This system reduces response times, improves intersection safety, and lowers the risk of collisions involving emergency apparatus, civilian vehicles, and pedestrians. The City is purchasing three kits, and the total cost of the procurement is $13,170.00.
