About this file

This is Addendum #2 for a 911 Feasibility Study (RFP #25-105PFD) issued by the City of Peachtree City, Georgia. The addendum clarifies that the City requires a comprehensive, not-to-exceed price proposal for a complete feasibility study to evaluate three options: continuing collaboration with Fayette County Emergency Communications Center (ECC), partnering with a different regional ECC, or creating a new City ECC. The City confirms they will provide potential location options for a new ECC if needed, and the deliverables should include Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) costs and conceptual drawings rather than formal architectural documents.

The addendum addresses technical considerations, noting that if a new ECC is pursued, the City would need to establish its own technical infrastructure including radio systems, 9-1-1 systems, CAD/RMS, GIS/mapping, and L&R systems. A vendor comment indicates that establishing completely new systems and hiring subject matter experts is typically cost-prohibitive and may not meet interoperability requirements. While an assessment of the Fayette County ECC would be preferred as part of the study, their willingness to provide operational data is unknown.

911 FEASIBILITY STUDY

25-105PFD

ADDENDUM #2

1. QUESTION: Would the City accept a proposal for the majority of the scope of work requested, but not exhaustive?

CITY’S RESPONSE: No. The City is seeking a comprehensive, not-to-exceed price for a complete, not partial, proposal.

2. QUESTION: Does this feasibility study need to include an assessment of the Fayette County ECC and document any areas the County ECC is not meeting public safety or City standards, guidelines and best practices? If Yes to this question, is the County ECC onboard to providing the needed workload, performance metric, workflow, business process, policy and procedure data to complete an accurate assessment?

CITY’S RESPONSE: An assessment of the Fayette County ECC would be preferred. Their willingness to provide information is unknown.

3. QUESTION: Is the City seeking for this feasibility study to demonstrate why a City/County ECC partnership, versus two separate ECCs, is better for public safety and the citizens of the City/County? For example, a combined ECC should have the following to ensure an appropriate level of services is being provided to all stakeholder departments:

a. Strategic objectives of the combines ECC

b. Desired combined ECC performance metrics (e.g., APCO/NENA, NFPA, etc.)

c. Governance structure of the combined ECC

d. Management and administration of the combined ECC

e. Formal Service Level Agreement (SLA) between the County and the City

f. Combined ECC Quality Assurance/Quality Improvement

g. Etc.

CITY’S RESPONSE: No. The City already operates in a partnership with Fayette County. This study will be used to determine if the City should partner with a different ECC in the region, continue the collaboration with Fayette County, or create a new ECC.

4. QUESTION: Is the City seeking to create a City Emergency Communications Center while at the same time leverage existing County infrastructure and systems (e.g.., 9-1-1, radio, CAD/RMS, GIS/map, L & R, etc.) which will allow the City to have seamless interoperability and information sharing on all public safety mission critical systems?

CITY’S RESPONSE: No.

3a. QUESTION: Yes to the above question, is Fayette County onboard to provide subject matter expert assistance and vendor contact information regarding the level of effort, costs, etc. to establish a City ECC while the new ECC and City departments remain on the County systems?

CITY’S RESPONSE:

3b. QUESTION: If No to the above question, is the City seeking to stand-up its own technical infrastructure, new radio system, new 9-1-1 system, new CAD/RMS system, new GIS/mapping system, new L&R system, etc.?

CITY’S RESPONSE: Yes, or partner with a different regional ECC.

3c. QUESTION: Note: We have extensive experience in this area.

Standing up a new everything, hiring subject matter experts staff to implement and maintain the systems and developing interfaces to the County systems is almost always cost prohibitive and often does not meet public safety interoperability, information sharing and streamlined operations (e.g., maximum operational effectiveness and time efficiency) requirements.

CITY’S RESPONSE: Good to know.

5. QUESTION: Will the City provide potential options the new City ECC location?

CITY’S RESPONSE: Yes.

6. QUESTION: Is the feasibility study deliverable information for the new ECC facility Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) costs only (e.g., no formal price quotes) and conceptual drawings (e.g., not official architect and engineering documents) CITY’S RESPONSE: Yes.
