KENNESAW, GA, (March 18, 2005) - Digital Projection International (DPI), an Emmy Award-winning manufacturer of high-performance projection systems, announced the General Services Administration (GSA) has extended its contract, first awarded in 2000, for an additional five years.

By definition, a GSA contract is a straightforward and standardized means in which government purchasing agents can buy equipment and supplies at a predetermined discount price. With DPI's contract, #GS03F009K, as a purchasing vehicle, these agents have the ability to purchase any projector in the company's lineup either directly or via DPI's nationwide network of authorized dealers at the GSA pre-negotiated price.

“We couldn't be more pleased with the access to government opportunities we and our dealers have enjoyed as a result of being awarded our GSA contract back in 2000,” said Chuck Collins, senior market development manager, Digital Projection, Inc. “With our contract extension, we're looking forward to five more years of robust government market growth for DPI.”

With the help of its GSA contract, DPI has provided large-screen display solutions for many critical government applications such as command and control, scientific research, simulation and training. Along with this business, DPI also believes government applications in small-to-medium venue permanent installations present exceptional opportunities for growth in the coming years.

“Since first being awarded a GSA contract, our projector lineup has evolved dramatically,” added Collins. “We offer a variety of precision single-chip and 3-chip DLP™ displays, with models suitable for any application and any size screen and venue. The GSA contract provides DPI with a very effective method of communicating our latest display solutions to a segment of users who are critical to guiding government purchases.”
