Quick Summary
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Fort Worth District is conducting market research for an Electronic Security System (ESS), including Intrusion Detection System (IDS), Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV), and Access Control System (ACS), for Dyess Air Force Base, Abilene, Texas. This initiative supports the inclusion of a sole source (brand name) specification for Honeywell Vindicator ESS in future construction contracts from FY25 through FY31, including the B21 Mission Planning Facility. Responses are due March 27, 2026.
Scope of Work
The requirement is for an ESS that includes IDS, CCTV, and ACS. The ESS must seamlessly integrate with existing Vindicator ACS and IDS systems already in use at Dyess AFB facilities, which are monitored at multiple locations. The Vindicator brand is specified as the IDS control/hardware head-end system, with IDS panels also being Vindicator equipment. Other ancillary devices like motion detectors and keypads will be specified. This market research aims to identify potential products/sources that meet the same functional requirements as the Honeywell Vindicator Electronic Security System.
