• Category #1: wireless emergency alert systems
• Category #2: outdoor warning sirens
• Category #3: digital type warning signage
• Category #4: other related systems
• Category #5: other ancillary goods or services
- Wireless emergency alerts (WEA): these are short emergency messages sent to mobile devices, such as smartphones, to warn about severe weather, missing people (amber alerts), and other emergencies.

• Immediate visual awareness, visible 360° under all-weather/light conditions.
• Clear differentiation between alert types (e.g., general hazard vs. lightning). 
- Local and remote-control flexibility - the system should support flexible control pathways to allow public safety agencies or designated operators to override, supplement, or mute automated alerts.

• Remote or app-based control capability.
• On-site override ability for emergency personnel.
• Ability to prioritize live messaging over automated alerts where needed.
