About this file
This is a Questions and Answers document for RFQ 1232SA26Q0238, a security camera system acquisition for the USDA-ARS facility in Fayetteville, Arkansas. The facility encompasses 100,039 square feet and requires installation of 19 new 2MP dome cameras (16 standard domes and 1 mini dome) integrated with the existing Avigilon Version 8 system already onsite. The mini dome camera will be installed in a location where camera size is a concern, while specific mounting types (pendant versus wall mounts) will be determined by vendors in their quotes. Avigilon Smart Licenses for Version 8 are required for each new camera. The existing infrastructure, including POE network ports and server capacity, will be utilized for the new cameras, with specific camera locations and floor plans to be provided after contract award. The third floor does not require new cameras.
The Q&A document clarifies that this is a new requirement with no incumbent contractor, and that video analytics are not needed as analytics functionality can be provided through servers rather than cameras. No budget has been established for this acquisition, and there is no specified data retention requirement. This is a Total Small Business Set-Aside under the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service, classified under NAICS code 334512 with a small business size standard of 650 employees. All responsible sources may submit quotations, with evaluation criteria and solicitation terms detailed in the referenced attachment.
