Set-Aside & Justification

- The proprietary software and connections of Avigilon, which are uniquely compatible with the existing security infrastructure.
- The unacceptable security risks posed by other systems due to the need for additional software patches and third-party monitoring.
- The requirement that only Avigilon-authorized contractors can service the equipment, simplifying maintenance.
