G2 Tactics has received a contract award under the multi-state contract Group 38232 Award 19745- Hazardous Incident Response Equipment. New York State Office of General Services is the lead agency of this contract. G2Tactics qualified for this contract through an intensive review of our past sales and pricing of our Automatic License Plate Readers (ALPR). Our lowest possible pricing is the NY State contract pricing.

The information on the present group of awardees under the Hazardous Incident Response Equipment award is presently the NY OGS website at: http://www.ogs.state.ny.us/purchase/spg/awards/3823219745CAN.HTM

Here is general information on the contract for non NY State agencies. New York has several multiple award contracts done in conjunction with the National Association of State Procurement Officials for Homeland Security/disaster response /police/fire type products.

• Here is the link to all of the contract information-http://www.ogs.state.ny.us/purchase/spg/awards/3823219745CAN.HTM
• The Award lists in the first few pages all of the vendors presently under contract.
• Their price lists are on the website under "Pricing Information" and is minimum discount offered. Many will offer better pricing if possible on volume orders.
• "Manufacturers" lists the manufacturers covered under contract (all or in part) and lists the companies under award that carry each manufacturers product offering

The contracts are open for use by all States and territories in the United States and their political entities (if allowed by the State). Outside of NYS it is the individual States decision on whether they will sign up to use the contracts and which vendors they will sign with.

A list of all State Purchasing Directors is on the web at www.naspo.org

For those States that can participate in this kind of multi-state contract the paperwork and directions are located under "NASPO Participation". It is fairly quick in many states to sign on.

If the State has not signed on and a political entity-city-county-etc. wants to they can do that if they are NOT precluded from doing so by their own State purchasing department.

G2Tactics will assist any government agency to qualify for purchasing G2Tactis products off the New York State Hazardous Incident Response Equipment contract.
