The client is seeking a vendor to provide streetlight controls and associated operating software that requires no on-site assembly or programming for installation. The operating software, delivered as a SaaS solution, must be user-friendly and capable of displaying the real-time operational status of luminaires, indicating outages, causes of failures such as flickering, defective fixtures, power loss (including copper theft), and voltage irregularities.

The system must integrate seamlessly with third-party platforms via API protocols and support bulk importation of GIS asset data. It should facilitate work order creation and management, offer robust scheduling options based on time, sunset/sunrise, and custom photocell sensitivity, and provide network status and connectivity monitoring for each node. Nodes should deploy 'last gasp' technology—with a super capacitor to enable alarm communications even during power loss or tilt events.

Data from the nodes must be securely stored in AWS Cloud, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud. Each node and its associated software and connectivity must be backed by a minimum 10-year warranty. The solution should operate on the best available cellular service at any given location, include programmable reporting frequency, and provide alerts for outages, tilt, or pole knockdown without extra sensors. Backup power and safe shutdown features are required for power interruption scenarios.
