From the meeting
The July 16, 2026 agreement bars use of PENNVEST funds for covered telecommunications and video surveillance equipment, services, or systems, including Huawei, ZTE, Hytera, Hikvision, and Dahua. This matters because any project technology bundle, cloud server, phones, internet, or surveillance scope must avoid those vendors and comply with Section 889 rules. The project is funded, so IT and security suppliers should expect these compliance checks in any downstream procurement.
