# 2025-02-04 Lt Overton ELSAG Additional Cameras Procurement Request
[[Dennis Overton|Lt. Dennis Overton]] (ASP HQ / ICP) initiates a DPS 201-1 Procurement Request Form for two additional ELSAG F4 2L cameras, one EOC Operation Center License, and one Pole Mount 2 Cam Horizontal. Total request: $17,055 net / $18,528.58 inc tax. The buy is a follow-on draw against [[Term Contract 4600055190 and PO 4502235324 — Initial Leonardo ELSAG Buy|Term Contract 4600055190]]. The vendor-side quote was authored the same day by [[David Pierce]] at [[John Wright Associates, Inc.]] ("ASP ADDITIONAL CAMS").

## Significance
- **The first documented quote from Overton to the ELSAG sales channel.** Establishes Lt. Overton as the operational ALPR-program owner with discretion to initiate follow-on procurement.
- **The procurement justification.** Overton's written justification — *"To place automatic license plate readers on Interstates and US Highways throughout Arkansas / not to be used for speed enforcement"* — is the corpus's first documentary statement of ASP's ALPR operational mandate (Interstate / US Highway coverage) and operational disclaimer (no speed enforcement). The "not to be used for speed enforcement" framing is potentially structurally relevant to [[A.C.A. § 27-52-110 — County Automated Enforcement Device Statute]]'s threshold definition of "automated enforcement device" (which requires speeding-violation detection capability).
- **Below the bid-required threshold.** At $17,055 net, the request is below the $20,000 threshold requiring three competitive bids per the DPS 201-1 schedule. The quote (page 20) was provided as documentation of the requested equipment, not as the result of competitive shopping.
