Security Camera System w/Installation

Questions & Answers / Clarifications

This document provides answers to vendor questions regarding the 56 SOIS Camera System w/Install opportunity.

• Building Drawings: No drawings are available for Building 848 due to its SCIF designation.
• Camera Specifications: Offerors may propose any manufacturer's cameras (e.g., Pelco Sarix Professional 4 series equivalents) provided they meet minimum salient characteristics, including 4K (8MP) resolution, low-light capability, specific form factors (dome, fisheye, multi-head), PoE, ONVIF compliance (Profile S/T), and no unauthorized wireless or remote access capabilities.
• Storage & Recording: A local, standalone video recording solution is required, supporting 11 cameras with a minimum of 30 days of continuous recording. RAID 1 or 5 is mandatory for redundancy. Cloud storage and external network connectivity are not authorized.
• Workstation & UPS: Standard commercial configurations for workstations are acceptable if they meet performance requirements for VMS software supporting 11 cameras. A single rack-mount UPS is required for the server and monitor, providing a minimum of 30 minutes of runtime.
• Cabling: Plenum-rated, shielded CAT6a is required for all runs. Existing conduit may be used where available, but new conduit is required for new camera locations.
• Labor Requirements: Prevailing wage (Davis-Bacon) and union labor requirements are not applicable as the requirement is considered equipment supply.
• Security: Active security clearances are required for installation personnel. Personnel must be continuously escorted within the SCIF.
• Section 889: All camera equipment must be Section 889 compliant. Equivalent single-sensor cameras may be considered if they provide equal or better coverage.
• ONVIF: ONVIF Profile S/T interoperability is a hard requirement.
• Site Visit: Offerors were strongly encouraged to attend the site visit for assessment of field conditions.

These clarifications provide specific details on technical requirements, security, and compliance, which bidders must incorporate into their proposals. The government considers this a firm-fixed-price contract, and schedule overruns due to site conditions will not be billable via change order.
