We are seeking to upgrade to the most current version of our access control software. Our current version is no longer supported. This will require hardware & firmware upgrades as well, and data transfer to new workstations. Additionally, we are seeking to add additional access control to several doors that do not have access control. Finally, we seek to have intercoms installed at vehicle gates (this equipment we already own) Total estimated cost:

Our current access control system is WinDSX, so the software, hardware and firmware updates we require must be WinDSX.

All of our current access control card readers are HID, so we require HID card readers to ensure compatibility.

Finally, we already own the AiPhone intercoms, and we are only seeking to have them installed at our vehicle gates.
