About this file
This document is an Exhibit B Agency Requirements specification for RLP No. 6OH0315, establishing facility security requirements for U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) leased spaces under the General Services Administration (GSA) Request for Lease Proposal (RLP) program.
The document specifies comprehensive security infrastructure requirements across five major categories: Site Security, Structure Security, Facility Entrance Security, and Security Systems. Site security mandates include illumination of entrances and parking areas, visitor access control parking, K-4 rated or higher barriers, and designated Government Official Vehicle parking with video surveillance. Structure security requirements specify blast resistance windows with fragmentation film, secured HVAC access, and emergency generators with bollard protection and Electronic Security System connectivity. Facility entrance security requires employee/visitor access control with government-procured magnetometers and armed guards, high-security commercial grade mortise locksets with master key systems, hydraulic door closers, electric door strikes set to Fail Secure, and high-security magnetic locksets on glass doors with battery backup support for 4 hours.
The Electronic Security System (ESS) comprises three integrated components: a Physical Access Control System (PACS) using Gallagher Command Center with PIV compliance, an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) connected to Federal Protective Services Mega-Center monitoring via analog POTS lines, and an Internet Protocol Video Surveillance System (IPVSS) based on Milestone Video with Axis cameras. The Lessor must furnish Dell PowerEdge R730 servers with Windows Server 2012 R2, Cisco Catalyst 3850-X PoE switches, comprehensive Category 6A cabling infrastructure with specific labeling requirements, and workstations for security management and guard operations. Required battery backup systems must support 90 minutes for IPVSS, 90 minutes for PACS, and 4 hours for IDS. Video surveillance must provide 360-degree coverage with fixed 1080P cameras and PTZ capabilities, 60 days of recording capacity with 10+ terabytes of storage, and integration with access control and alarm systems. The document includes detailed specifications for card readers (Gallagher T-Series PIV Multi-Tech), door position switches, balanced magnetic switches, glass break sensors, dual technology motion sensors, duress alarm buttons, intercoms, and network infrastructure with specific manufacturer models and compliance certifications required throughout.

1.0 Purpose
The purpose of this document is to provide the Lessor with the USCIS Security Requirements for hardware, software, devices, components and related items that are expected by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
This document includes general descriptions and specifications for security requirements for USCIS space.
In conjunction with the GSA’s Request for Lease Proposal (RLP), this document will assist the Lessor in understanding and developing the site specific security requirements and detailed costing required for the offered space.
The intentions of this document are the following:
• Accommodate the functional requirements of present and future security systems.
• Support a multi-product and multi-vendor environment
• Facilitate the planning and installation of security systems that will support the diverse needs of various building locations.
• Ensure uniformity and consistency in the security measures provided in all USCIS facilities.
2.0 Site Security
2.1 Illumination of Entrances, Exits, Parking Lots, and Garage Security:
The type of lighting and positioning selected will not impede the visibility/quality of video surveillance cameras.
2.2 Visitor Access Control Parking:
Visitor parking will be clearly defined using visitor signs. If adjacent building parking is provided, it will be reserved for disabled parking and Government parking. (See 2.4).
2.3 Application of Barriers:
If applicable, barriers will be required as part of the Preliminary Facility Security Level (FSL) determination by USCIS Office of Security and Integrity. Barriers used will be K-4 rated or higher.
Barriers can be bollards, planters, drop arm gates or combination thereof. Barrier installation will be in accordance with manufacturer’s specification. Decorative sleeves, soil, plants etc. will be included to maintain aesthetics and as to not detract from neighboring areas.
2.4 Authorized GOV Parking:
If adjacent building parking is provided, a section of this area will be reserved for Government Official Vehicles (GOV) parking only. GOV areas will be clearly defined using “Reserved” signs.
GOV’s parking will be well illuminated and covered by video surveillance.

4.0 Facility Entrance Security
4.1 Employee/Visitor Access Control
Magnetometers and X-rays - The government will procure and maintain magnetometers and X-rays.
Guards - The government will procure and post armed guards. The number of guards will depend on a guard survey conducted by local the Field Security Manager.
4.2 Perimeter Doors and Door Locks
Key Controls and Access Media - The lessor will use construction cores to secure required space during construction. Construction cores are required on exterior doors to secure the site until acceptance of the facility. Upon substantial completion and acceptance of the space, the locksmith (under supervision of a designated USCIS representative) will change out construction cores and install all permanent cores. At no time will the locksmith be in possession of the keys for the permanent cores. GSA will receive, sign for and turn over to USCIS the permanent core keys.

(See mechanical lockset requirements)
4.6 Emergency Exit Doors/Delayed Egress:
Delayed egress will function in accordance with local fire and safety codes. The delay will be set on a timer, time determined by local fire codes. The panic hardware will prevent exit until the timer releases the lockset. The opening of the door will annunciate an audible local alarm that can only be reset by key. Key for alarm will be provided to USCIS.
High Rise Specific Requirements
International Building Code 2014 requires that all emergency egress doors to stairwells require that the doors fail safe in the event of a fire alarm activation or power outage. If this requirement applies, additional alarm points (motion sensors, glass break detectors, and door contact points) will be required to protect sensitive areas.
