Addendum to RFP - 01-12-23.docx

This is an Addendum to a Request for Proposal issued by the City of Redmond, Information Technology Department for the Redmond Security Camera Project located at 411 SW 9th Street in Redmond, Oregon. The addendum, dated January 12, 2023, addresses clarifications regarding the pre-proposal meeting and camera system specifications. An optional pre-proposal meeting will be held virtually via Microsoft Teams on January 18, 2023, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., with the meeting concluding early if no further questions arise. Bidders may participate using the Microsoft Teams desktop application or web browser with the provided meeting ID (217 071 736 190) and passcode (eT8UZU). The City of Redmond's primary contact for the procurement is Christian Armatas, City of Redmond Information Technology Department, reachable at (541) 604-4168 or christian.armatas@redmondoregon.gov, with submissions directed to the City Recorder, Kelly Morse, at 411 SW 9th Street, Redmond, OR 97756.

The addendum clarifies that while the City of Redmond prefers a cloud-based video management system (VMS) solution and does not wish to operate its current ExacqVision NVR alongside a proposed system, the City acknowledges that many proposed VMS solutions require a local NVR/DVR to incorporate third-party cameras and apply VMS features and artificial intelligence to existing cameras. Consequently, bidders may propose solutions utilizing their own local NVR/DVR infrastructure if necessary to meet project requirements and integrate existing camera systems.
