The specific products being purchased are part of the program defined set determined to best meet the needs of the target audience and are part of the currently approved and accredited systems. These specific products are unique because they are not the standard widely available versions of the Mindstorm sets, but are instead versions specifically crafted to support laboratory and classroom environments.

This laboratory version of the Mindstorm product set is only available from the manufacturer, LEGO Education. Inability to acquire this specific product will jeopardize the ability of the FMWRC to provide the full set of required and accredited capabilities needed to establish new YTLs, thus diminishing the ability to meet their mission requirements.
