In accordance with Procurement Policy Board Rule Section 3-05, the New York City Department of Correction (DOC) intends to enter into a sole source agreement with Willo Products Company, LLC. The purpose of this agreement is to procure alarms and locking mechanisms vital to the ongoing maintenance and upgrade of the DOC’s detention locking systems.
The DOC is currently replacing and upgrading cell doors throughout its facilities to comply with modern correctional standards. This procurement will encompass high security locking systems, including the Wedge, Tamper Alarm, Gripper, and High-intensity LED light Lock Receivers.
The amount of this sole source procurement shall not exceed $27,500,000.00. The proposed contract will be for three years; the start date will be January 1, 2027, to December 31, 2030.
Willo Products Company is the original developer and manufacturer of these patented systems. The vendor does not authorize the production or supply of these products by any other manufacturer. Because this proprietary and only detention-grade system is compatible with the DOC’s current infrastructure, operational needs, and security mandates, no other vendor can supply an equivalent alternative.
