- Might be an amazing opportunity for Machine Q as LSL now has to track ever piece of inventory from the warehouse to its destination

- $106K current billing
- $11K pending install
- Approx. $20-$30K in funnel for new warehouses assuming they get GSA approval
Issues and/or Executive Support Requested
We are having issues with a small amount of WAPs that we had to install a smaller product due to Covid supply chain shortages. This is causing gaps in their wireless coverage and could pose a risk of them failing their GSA audit which would be a huge deal as they would lose GSA funding for that facility. Trying to work with management to get approval to just swap them out
