Digital Ally today announced that it has been awarded a "sole-source" contract with the state of West Virginia to supply in-car video systems and related equipment to the state's highway patrol department.
The initial one-year contract, which was effective December 15, 2013 and includes a provision for two one-year renewals, authorizes the purchase of Digital Ally's in-car video systems, particularly the DVM-750, for installation in state trooper vehicles. The West Virginia State Police , which includes more than 600 sworn officers, operates and maintains an active fleet of more than 500 cruisers throughout the state. The Company expects to receive a significant purchase order from West Virginia in the first quarter of 2014 for the initial deployment of DVM-750 units and anticipates that the state will attempt to deploy in-car video systems in its entire fleet of vehicles during 2014 and 2015.
