Description

For $65,000.00 in payment authority for a new contract entered on or about May 3, 2021, for a term of five years for Night Vision Goggles (NVG) and related services for the Phoenix Fire Department. NVG is specifically designed for fire rescue units to safely and effectively perform night-time, low-light, and no-light rescue operations, both inside and outside Phoenix city limits. Aviation Specialties Unlimited is the sole authorized distributor for L-3 and Harris products and the factory authorized service provider for testing, certification, and repair of the equipment. The NVG for the Fire Department hoist operators must be identical to what is used by the Phoenix Police Department pilots to ensure interoperability during flight rescue operations. The consistency is critical because the NVG is calibrated and serviced in compliance with the Federal Aviation Administration requirements.
