Agreement Allows Lowry to Support Warfighter by Providing the Government with Focused Logistics, Total Asset Visibility (TAV) and Integration of Global Supply Chains Using Passive RFID
BRIGHTON, MI, October 9, 2008 - Lowry Computer Products, one of the nation's leading RFID solution
providers, today announced that they have been selected as one of the vendors to provide Passive Radio
Frequency Identification (pRFID) Electronic Product Code hardware, software, and professional services
to the U.S Department of Defense (DoD), U.S Coast Guard, North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO),
Coalition Partners and other Foreign Military Sales (FMS). The contract, which was awarded to Lowry
Computer Products by the Army Contracting Agency Information Technology, E-Commerce, and
Commercial Contracting Center (ITEC4), has a potential value in excess of $75 million based on this
multiple award indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract.
Under the terms of this agreement, Lowry Computer Products can provide the Defense Logistics Agency,
U.S Army, and any other government agency within the U.S Department of Defense with the tools
necessary to integrate pRFID infrastructures. Lowry's solution set includes Lowry RFID labels and
domestic professional services, CACI International Inc. intercontinental professional services,
Bartec/Motorola MC9090-RFID mobile computers, Zebra Technologies RFID printers, Sirit Infinity 510
stationary passive RFID readers and GlobeRanger iMotion Edgeware.
"The Department of Defense is determined to provide the most efficient and productive distribution supply
chain possible. By implementing pRFID to support the warfighter, the DoD is leading the industry through
the adoption of interoperable and cost efficient technologies to meet the challenges of this complex
supply chain", commented Steve Lowry, Senior Vice President of Lowry. "As a prime contractor, the
Lowry team will leverage the strengths of each of its' business partners to deliver the total solution to the
DLA."
"This award demonstrates the strong partnership forged between Lowry and CACI and several years of
collaboration. Our capabilities extend from RFID, biometrics and other identification and tracking
technologies, to the professional services driving successful program implementation for DoD,"
commented Michael Stango, CACI Integrated Security and Intelligence Solutions. "We look forward to
expanding our relationship through execution of this pRFID work and new opportunities in the future."
"As a total solution provider, Lowry is a great selection for the integration of the Sirit INfinity 510 reader
under the DoD contract," said Norbert Dawalibi, CEO, Sirit Inc." We look forward to having a strong
partner like Lowry working to deploy our industry-leading INfinity 510 reader for DLA pRFID applications."
Lowry's RFID expertise in the government sector has been recognized by many divisions of the United
States Government. In September 2007, Lowry was awarded a five year, $8.5 million contract by the
Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) to provide RFID printers, labels and maintenance for all CONUS and
OCONUS Defense Distribution Centers (DDC). With the award of this most recent DoD contract, Lowry
continues its' support of our warfighters by providing the government with the essential components for
pRFID implementations.
