SECTION A – STATEMENT OF WORK

Statement of Work for Public Announcement System (PA)

(Revised 7/23/2024)

Small Business Administration

Office of Capital Access-Disaster Assistance Processing and Disbursement Center

4/1/2024

1. Background

The Office of Capital Assistance (OCA), SBA, provides victims of disasters in the United States (including Puerto Rico and other US possessions) with access to low interest loans for the purpose of rebuilding their homes and/or businesses. The goal of the program is to allow the borrowers to resume their normal lives and/or operations as soon as possible in the aftermath of the disaster(s). All disaster loans are processed at the SBA’s Processing and Disbursement Center (PDC) in Fort Worth, Texas.

On the other hand, the COVID EIDL Servicing Center (CESC), is the office responsible for providing prompt and cost-effective loan servicing to over 4.5 million businesses borrowers that were affected during the COVID 19 pandemic. To secure the borrowers compliance with their payments and debt management. The CESC is also located in the same facilities in Fort Worth, TX.

In August 2023, the Processing and Distribution Center (PDC) transitioned the Avaya telephone system to Microsoft Teams Calls. Previously, the PDC also used the Avaya telephone intercom system for public announcements for the two buildings in the SBA campus located at 14925 and 14951 Kingsport Rd. Fort Worth, TX, but that option went away with the transition to Microsoft Teams. A public announcement/intercom system is needed in the event of emergencies, such as severe weather or an active shooter, to advise employees about taking shelter in case of an emergency. Currently, between the PDC and the COVID EIDL Servicing Center (CESC), there are over 700 employees that regularly work onsite, and their safety could be jeopardized without a public announcement system that will alert them and provide them with instructions during an emergency. Therefore, the SBA is pursuing the acquisition and installation of an office paging System for both buildings, that includes products, hardware, software, and devices.

Objectives

A public announcement/intercom system is needed, to make announcements through overhead speakers in the two buildings in the SBA campus located at 14925 Kingsport Rd. Fort Worth, TX, (K1 building) an 82,000 square feet single story building, with over 800 cubicles and private offices and at 14951 Kingsport Rd. Fort Worth, TX (K2 building) a 69,000 square feet single story building with over 700 cubicles and private offices. The SBA is pursuing the acquisition and installation of office paging System for both buildings, which must include products, hardware, software, devices, and installation.

Scope The following requirements are necessary for this request:

Provide and install all speakers, wiring, amplifiers, paging control systems, audio processors, software, microphones, and equipment necessary to make public announcements in K1 and K2, to be heard in all areas of the buildings, including breakrooms, restrooms, training rooms, conference rooms and private offices.

Provide and install three (3) paging stations in K1 and two (2) in K2.

The system must provide the ability to play prerecorded emergency messages.

The paging system needs to be configured to enable both buildings to initiate paging or emergency messages individually within their own structure, to communicate within each other and to initiate simultaneous joint paging.

The paging system should provide the ability to generate pages and emergency messages from designated computer laptops within the buildings and on the Center’s network, from laptops working remotely but connected to the network and from designated smartphones operating onsite or remotely.

Provide floor layouts for both buildings with the proposed location of devices and equipment, for approval of the SBA, prior to the start of the installation process. (Floor Plans for both K1 and K2 are included as part of this document)

Provide all the equipment needed for the installation of speakers in ceiling and other related equipment. The government will not furnish any equipment for installation.

Provide a training session after completion of the installation for all system users, on how to operate and troubleshoot system.

Upon completion of the project, provide SBA with product warranty information, operating.

manuals, and as-built drawings. These documents shall be delivered as digital copies and printed, “hard copies” of these documents.

Contract should include all labor, maintenance, parking, traveling fees and all parts.

To avoid business interruption, installation work must be performed in the hours between 6:00PM and 6:00AM, Monday through Friday and or during the weekends, provided the Center is not working on extended hours attending an emergency declaration.
