<br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I. <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />000011 <br /> <br />SECTION A <br />INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />Systems Concepts of Colorado, Inc. (SCC) is pleased to respond to <br />the Pikes Peak Region's Request for Proposals for an Early Flood <br />Warning System. <br /> <br />Having participated in the Flood warning System Workshop, we are <br />impressed by the dedication and effort of the people in the Pikes <br />Peak area who have moved this project from conception to <br />construction in just one year. We are anxious to have a part in <br />bringing this important project to completion. <br /> <br />see designs and builds quality data acquisition, communications, <br />and control systems. We offer high quality system integration <br />services, drawing from a wide range of related skills. These <br />skills include needs analysis, system design and engineering, <br />radio studies, software development, installation and <br />integration, troubleshooting and maintenance, custom hardware <br />design, and user training. <br /> <br />Our firm has solid experience and expertise in remote sensing and <br />data collection using radio, satellites, and telephone. We have <br />developed applications for hydrology and meteorology, municipal <br />water supply, public safety and communications, the broadcast <br />industry, and environmental research. <br /> <br />This proposal reflects our concern that we build a system that <br />truly serves the needs of our client, now and in the future. To <br />that end, we have identified two alternative systems for <br />consideration by the pikes Peak Region. Each of these represents <br />what we believe to be the best combination of equipment and <br />softWare in its class, and either system, properly integrated, <br />will serve the Region well. <br /> <br />The two systems differ in their basic architecture. In one, data <br />is transmitted only when initiated by an "event" at the gauge, <br />such as the tipping of a rain collection bucket at the <br />accumulation of 1 mm of rain. In the other, "event" reporting is <br />combined with radio "polJ,ing" from the central site to greatly <br />enhance tne integrity ofl data co'l1ection and the flexibility of <br />the overall system. The decision, we feel, should rest with the <br />Region, and depends on factors such as the probability of future <br />expansion, the need to tolerate noise and interference, and the <br />desire for' a multipurpose system which could be used for other <br />related data acquisition and control operations. <br /> <br />Our proposal is based on providing all of the services necessary <br />to go from the general system design you have identified in the <br />RFP to a fully operational flood warning system. We beleive that <br />our systems integration approach is the key to getting your <br />system working quickly and reliably. <br /> <br />SCC - Pikes Peak Early Flood Warning Proposal <br /> <br />1 <br />
