SOQ-2014-005 - Channel 16 HD Upgrade Project

Summary of Specifications:
The City is soliciting SOQs from qualified contractors who desire to bid on the City’s upcoming Channel 16 HD Upgrade project (Project). This process is being used because the City believes the Project is vital and complicated enough to warrant specific contractor qualifications. The final cost for this project is expected to be under $125,000. 

The City of Loveland (The City), in partnerships with Aims Community College, Thompson School District (TSD), and Comcast Television, operates three locally accessed television stations. In order to remain relevant with the technical advances in High Definition broadcast, recording and viewing the City of Loveland has determined that two broadcast locations, each with their own separate broadcast capabilities, will be updated to achieve the ability to broadcast, record and stream live and recorded programming in High Definition. Depending on cost, availability, scheduling, and needs of The City and TSD the project may have a one (1) year or multi-year (2-3) implementation.
