Notice of Intent - Engineering Education Controls Systems

2026-11-03

Please note : This is a Sole Source Notification . Educational Control Products ( ECP ) is the sole manufacturer of the specific torsional disk and rectilinear motion control systems required for UVU ' s College of Engineering and Technology controls and system dynamics courses and laboratory . While other instructional vendors offer general - purpose control trainers or simulationbased platforms , none provide the same combination of physical system fidelity , modularity , and integrated hardware / software architecture necessary to meet UVU ' s instructional and accreditation needs . ECP systems offer uniquely configurable torsional and rectilinear mechanical platforms that allow students to physically modify inertia , stiffness , damping , and mass parameters . These systems are specifically designed for advanced controls education and enable experiments in system identification , classical and modern control , vibration analysis , and real - time feedback control . The hardware integrates seamlessly with ECP ’ s proprietary control software , which supports real - time data acquisition , controller implementation , and repeatable experimentation .
