RM 1100, RM 2219, & RM 1026. Plans have been amended to reflect.
3 4/18/2024 Are both of the buildings on generator power? If not is the generator power available for this project? Both facilities are on generator power. Generator Power cannot be relied upon.
4 4/18/2024 Due to the addition not depicted on the drawings provided, does the government want to move the location of the NNE camera and place it further to the west?
Please see SOW Para C.7. VSS Locations upgrades & add-ons: See Drawing updated in Amendement 3 (Attachment WY0030_VSS_Design) The contractor and FPS Technical Point of Contact (TPOC) shall verify all camera installation locations to provide the optimal view prior to any installation.
5 4/18/2024 The current corner mount place are mounted with hardware that is rusting, Does the government want the current corner mounting plate removed and replaced with a new corner mounting plate and for that mount to be attached with stainless steel hardware?
See Amendment 0003 revised SOW Para E.2.1 All of the currently installed cameras and mounting hardware are to be replaced and new.
Page 3 of 6570RFPW24QW8000001/0003 Q & A
6 4/18/2024
The exterior of the building has a decorative out cropping that is 8” out from building, Does the government want the centerline of the camera to be out past that vertical plane so as to not be blocking any video along the sides of the building? If yes, how far does the government want that centerline of the camera to extend past the furthest vertical plane of the building?
Yes the centerline of the camera should be out past the vertical plane so that no view is obstructed. As determined by mounting hardware neccesary.
7 4/18/2024 The equipment list is missing a UPS for the PSO workstation and monitors, per the SOW all the equipment is required to be on a UPS, that workstation and monitor would require a 1500va UPS, will the government add an UPS for the PSO lobby to the equipment list?
See Amendment 0003 revised equipment list SOW Para D.5.1 VSS Equipment List at a minimum: Equipment list updated to include one SM1500RMXL2UTAA or equivalent
8 4/18/2024 There are only 2 monitors on the SOW and during the site visit, that discrepancy was noticed, Will the government update the equipment list to include the additional monitors needed for this project?
See Amendment 0003 revised equipment list SOW Para D.5.1 VSS Equipment List at a minimum: Equipment list updated to include two more 24" monitors MHD24-G2- NA or equivalent
9 4/18/2024
The monitors on the SOW equipment list are HD monitors (1920X1080) and Under section C.4.1 calls for 2 monitors that 40-45” 4KUHD. The cameras are much higher resolution than the what HD Monitor will support at 2560X1920 (5MP). Would the government clearly define the monitor size for PSO Lobby and PSO Office? Would the government also define the actual resolution requirement of any and all monitors needs for this project?
The part number for this monitor is M4K43-G2-NA 43 (or equivilant). This is not an HD, it is an 4K UHD 3480x2160 (4K) (https://www.nexlar.com/shop/avigilon-m4k43-g2-na-43-lcd-monitor-4k-uhd/). See Amendment 0003 revised equipment list D.5.1 VSS Equipment List at a minimum:
10 4/18/2024 The monitors for the PSO station are listed as 43”, per the site visit those will not fit into the current console, the largest size would be a 24” and those are available in 4k resolution, will the government update the SOW to reflect the size that will fit?
See Amendment 0003 revised equipment list SOW Para D.5.1 VSS Equipment List at a minimum: The 43" monitors will be installed at the Security operations Center and an additional two 24" 4k monitors will be added to the equipment list for the front desk area.
11 4/18/2024
For the distance the PSO sits from the monitor in the PSO office, per industry guideline a 32” monitor would be better for viewing and the eyes, below is industry standers for distances based on monitor size. The PSO at the current desk will be sitting at approx. 25” from the monitors. Will the government change this from a 43” monitor to a 32” monitor? Would the government consider 4 each 32” monitor in the PSO Office?
No, the Government will not consider any changes to the monitor sizes listed.

11 continued
12 4/18/2024 Does the government want the monitors mounted to the PSO desk in the PSO office?
See Amendment 0003 revised SOW Para C.4, C.4.1, C.4.2. The monitors shall be desk mounted where feasible.
Page 5 of 6570RFPW24QW8000001/0003 Q & A
13 4/18/2024
The Multi sensors cameras require 60 watt POE, the current salient for the switch is 30 wa4 per port, There are now POE switches that exceed 90watts POE per port as the demand for POE powered devices has grown. By using a switch with below salient characteristics, you could use one switch with dual redundant power supplies to power the whole system and remove the POE inserters, thus saving the government money on the installation. This will also remove a point of failure and allow the ability to monitor individual camera power draw for troubleshoo.ng.
The government would also have the ability to remote into the switch from workstation and power cycle the camera. Will the government accept these salient characteristics?
Switch
| 1. | Layer 3 Managed |
| 2. | Total POE power budget 1440 watts, Dual 720W hot swappable power supplies |
| 3. | Capable to source up to 90 watts of power by using all the four pairs of standard Cat5e/6 ethernet cabling. |
| 4. | 2 X 1gb and 4 SFP+ |
| 5. | 26 x 10/100/1000Base-T RJ45 |
| 6. | IEEE 802 3bt PoE++ PSE |
| 7. | Backward compa.ble with IEEE 802.3at/af PoE PSE |
| 8. | 90W 802.3bt PoE++Power Output Mode |
| 9. | 802.3bt PoE ++ and Advanced Power Output Mode Management |
| 10. | Up to 24 ports of IEEE 802.3at/IEEE 802.3bt PoE devices powered |
| 11. | Complies with IEEE 802.3bt Power over Ethernet Plus Plus |
No, See Amendment 0003 revised SOW Para D5.1, 16 count 60W POE injectors on the equipment list covers the power requirement. Moreover, the designs callout 2 switches, not 1, and reducing to 1 switch is not technically possible with the structured cabling outlined for use in this project.
14 4/18/2024
As a cost saving would the government allow the use of POE powered network extenders with the following salient characteristics? By doing this this would save the government the cost of addi.onal ups, switch, rack and power installation in the post office. This would also make it so all the equipment is in the secure location of the PSO office.
POE Extenders
| 1. | No local power required. |
| 2. | Power consumption 1.3 watts via PoE |
| 3. | Full gigabit Ethernet |
| 4. | Extends PoE and PoE Plus up to 90 watts. |
| 5. | Universal 10/100/1000 combability |
| 6. | Doubles range to 200 meters |
No, this does not meet ANSI/TIA-568.1-E for combined distance requirements.
15 4/18/2024
There are new wire technologies that extend the range of network cabling and such wire is commonly referred to as “gamechanger” made by Paige Datacom. This wire will go 656 feet at 2.5gbps and provide 100watts POE at that distance and is UL Verifed to support this. The wire can be certified by all these industry standard testers can certify:
Fluke DSX CableAnalyzer, Trend Networks LanTEK III,IV, Netscout Onetouch AT, AEM Test Pro, Viavi and Softing. The wire is commercially available and information is readily available on the company’s website. We have successfully used this in multiple government installation already to date, would the government accept this method on this project?
ANSI/TIA-568.1-E certified cable REQUIRED
"gamechanger" is not an approved ANSI/TIA-568.1-E standard for structured cable and should not be used in any government application.
Page 6 of 6570RFPW24QW8000001/0003 Q & A
16 4/18/2024 Is the ceiling space above the drop lid in FOB Plenum rated? Yes
17 4/18/2024 Is the ceiling space above the drop ceiling in Post Office Plenum rated? Yes
18 4/18/2024 Does either building or the breezeway have asbestos that has not been abated? The building has been completely abated.
19 4/18/2024
Section C.5.4 calls for a “17” combination display, keyboard, KVM, mouse” to be installed at the server location and in section D.5.1 equipment list under remote monitoring workstation the government has “Rackmount LCD, keyboard and optional KVM”. These 2 units are completely different, will the government clearly define what rack mountable unit and features (ie..mouse, kvm, etc..)they want on this project? This monitor should also match up to the camera resolution and we recommend it be a 4K (UHD) monitor, will the government also supply the minimum resolution for this rack mounted monitor?
See Amendment 0003 revised SOW Para. C.5.4 has been updated to match what is located on D.5.1. Moreover there is no branding requirement we suggest a 17" or equivalent.
20 4/18/2024
In section D.5.1 the UPS in the equipment list is a SM5000RT3UTAA or equivalent, this UPS is significantly larger than necessary to power the system. Also, under section E.1.4 it specifically calls out the UPS requirement and under section F.2.6 A) the government requires the contractor to provide UPS back up calculation. Based on sections E.1.4 and the requirement of F.2.6 A) I asked will the government allow the contractor to supply the necessary sized UPS based on the calculation of the power requirement on the system in each location there is a need/ requirement for backup power?
Please provide UPS calculation for all UPS based on the equipment as needed. See Amendment 0003 revised SOW Para E.1.4 , Backup Power Requirements –All VSS electrical and electronic equipment installed shall be powered from an Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS). It is expected that all equipment necessary for continuous live viewing, recording, and archiving VSS will be uninterrupted during a power outage. The UPS shall be sized to provide at least four (4) hours battery back-up in the event the primary power source is interrupted. The Contractor shall include load calculations with their bid proposal.
21 4/18/2024
In section F.2.6 Calculations the government ask contractor about power calculations however there is nothing addressing the POE power consumption of the system, In order to verify system design considerations, I ask if the government could add the requirement for contractor to supply a system POE calculation per switch and a wiring diagram showing what devices are connected to any POE switches in the system?
The government will not update this as the POE power consumption is covered via 60W POE injectors. See SOW para D.4, D.4.1, D.5.1
22 4/18/2024
In section D.5.1 under wiring government call out for Cat 6a Plenum. In the Design Standards section E.3.11 Calls out for Cat 6/7 and that it be UL Listed for it’s intended use. Aso in section E.3.12 and E.3.13 the government references Cat 6/7. Is the contractor to follow the government’s design standards section or the information provided in the equipment list?
See Amendment 0003 revised SOW Para E.3.11, E.3.12, E.3.13
Page 7 of 6570RFPW24QW8000001/0003 Q & A
23 4/18/2024 During the site visit it was clear the government would benefit if all the cameras were of the 360 multi-imagers variant and would offer better coverage with no blind spots, Would the government make a change to the SOW and replace 270 multi-imager cameras with the 360 multi-imager variant?
The 270 degree field of view meets the needs of the government.
24 4/18/2024 In order for the multi-imager in the post office entry to see down the hallway it would need to mounted with a extension pole and pendant adapter, Does the government want the contractor to mount that camera at the elevation of the hallway threshold so it can see down the hallway going to the north?
Yes. See Amendment 0003 revised Para C.2.10 The Contractor shall verify all camera views with the FPS COR/PM prior to installation.
25 4/19/2024 During site visit it was represented that the government wants a viewing/workstation in the PSO office area, will the government update the SOW to reflect the additional workstation in section C.7.1 b) and in the equipment list in section D.5.1?
Yes, See Amendment 0003 revised SOW has added additional workstation to both D.5.1 and C.7.1
26 4/19/2024
2. Per E.6.2 “In the event any Contractor supplied equipment, component, part fails within the specified warranty period, the Contractor shall immediately replace or repair the item within 24 hours at no additional cost to the Government. If the Contractor is unable to rectify the issue(s) within the allotted (me, the Contractor shall be liable for all costs incurred by the Government to correct the issue(s).”
a) Does the government expect the contractor to have spares onsite?
This site has limited flights and with manufactures there are processes for getting advance replacements from the factories that generally take 24-48 hours. Also there would be shipping (me of another 24 hours.
b) Would the government change this requirement to state that the contractor must contact FPS within 24 hours of receiving ticket and any warranty work must be performed within 5 business days?
A) The Government is not responsible for how the contractor meets SOW Para E.6.2.
B) No, the Government shall not make these changes to SOW Para E.6.2
27 4/19/2024
Per E.18 E.18.1 The Contractor shall provide on-site software maintenance support for a period of 12 months. This support shall start upon successful completion of the Substantial Completion Inspection (SCI) and include support for the Video Management software. E.18.2 This support shall include screen development, report generation, software upgrades, OS patches, virus protection, system configuration, response plan implementation and other such support required for operation.
a) The amount of (me/hours the government expects the contractor to provide “on-site software maintenance” in not clearly defined in this section, Will the government specify the amount of (me/hours and the actual number of site visits the government expects from the contractor for this requirement?
b) Will the government allow the contractor doing amended remote support sessions to provide software support for this requirement?
A) It is up to each vendor to determine the amount of time needed to comply with the requirements outlined in SOW Para E.18
B) No, there cannot be any permanent remote connections made to the system.
Page 8 of 6570RFPW24QW8000001/0003 Q & A
28 4/19/2024
Per E.6.1 The warranty terms shall be; the Contractor shall guarantee that all installed parts, components, systems and workmanship meet the specifications set forth in this SOW. Additionally, the Contractor shall warranty all Contractor supplied components, workmanship and/or systems for a (minimum) period of 12 months from the date of Government acceptance.
a) Does the government want this to mean that in the event any Contractor supplied equipment, component, part fails within the 12month workmanship warranty period; the Contractor shall replace or repair the item at no additional cost (materials and labor) to the Government?
b) If any Contractor supplied equipment, component, part fails within the factory warranty period and outside the 12month workmanship warranty, will the Government pay the contractor the additional cost (materials, shipping and labor) to repair/replace that item with the factory?
c) If the government calls out the contractor for a warranty claim and the item is not covered under warranty or issue is operator error, will the government pay the cost of expenses and labor that the contractor incurs for that call out?
A) Yes
B) No, outside of the 12 month warranty the contractor is no longer liable.
C) The contractor may submit a Request for equitable adjustment and the Government will evaluate such a claim for reasonableness.
29 4/19/2024 Will the government provide detailed description of the mounting the government wants for each camera location (ceiling, wall, corner or pendant) on the map and in the details in section C.7 to be specific to each camera variant?
No, camera mounts are subjective to siteline requirements.
30 4/19/2024
E.5.8 Where removal of equipment or materials leaves holes or damaged surfaces, the Contractor shall patch the holes and damaged surfaces, as well as, paint the surface to match adjacent finished surfaces. Finished surfaces of patched area shall be flush and match the existing adjacent surface as closely as possible. If new work is to be applied to existing area, then removal and patching shall be adequate for installation of new work.
A) The current exterior is faded and the new corner mounting hardware has a different footprint than the current corner mounts that are installed, this will leave some surface area expose that would not be weathered and may even be a slightly different color. I asked during the site visit and was told that would not be an issue to worry about, will the government confirm this and modify this section to reflect those changes in this SOW?
A) Barring any damage to the façade, discoloration from exterior weathering is not a concern. We will not amend the SOW, as it states "match the adjacent surface as closely as possible."
31 4/19/2024
E.6.7 The Contractor shall maintain an incident log as part of the software maintenance program, recording therein all deviations from normative operations, and all corrective actions taken. The incident log shall be submitted to FPS upon detection of anomalies, quarterly, and at the end of the contract period.
a) What does the government consider the end of the contract period, please define?
See Amendment 0003 revised SOW para E.18.1. The Contractor shall provide on-site software maintenance support for a period of 12 months.
32 4/19/2024 During site visit monitors for the existing desk in Security Room 1126 were discussed, I do not see where these monitors or a workstation are called out in the SOW. Please provide workstation requirement and size and quantity of monitors for the desk in room 1126.
See Amendment 0003 revised SOW para C.5.5 and D.5.1
Page 9 of 6570RFPW24QW8000001/0003 Q & A
33 4/19/2024 Exact location for switch/UPS on the USPS side was discussed during site walk, has a final location been determined?
The current proposed switch room is 1026. See Amendment 0003 revised amended designs WY0030_VSS_05212024 to the locked electrical closet. Please see SOW para C.5.3. All equipment shall be rack mountable, if possible. All equipment that is not rack mountable shall be installed on the wall.
