Questions & Answers / Clarifications

This document provides responses to contractor questions regarding the WEPA Alarm Monitoring opportunity.

• Cellular Dialers: The specific company used for cellular dialers is not critical; the focus is on functionality for intrusion and fire monitoring.
• Sensitivity Testing: Sensitivity testing for zoned, non-addressable panels is required every other year. The government does not have a record of the last test date and has added this requirement to the revised Statement of Work.
• Pricing Basis: Bidders should price per park, not per building, for monitoring services.
• Site Access & Equipment: Specific equipment counts for fire and IDS systems in the Curatorial Room and Weapons Room at Fort Necessity (FONE) have been provided. Lists of existing equipment and zones are available for FONE and FRHI, but not for ALPO, JOFL, or FLNI.
• Modernization: There is no expected modernization effort for the IDS and Fire systems at the listed sites.
• Hardware Replacement: The contract is intended solely for monitoring services (monthly monitoring, annual inspection, and sensitivity testing). Hardware issues and replacements are to be kept separate from this procurement.

This Q&A clarifies requirements and adds sensitivity testing to the SOW. Bidders should ensure their proposals account for pricing per park and the specified equipment details. The separation of hardware replacement from monitoring services is also confirmed.
