STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)
Integrated Physical Access Control, Surveillance, and Sound Masking System
927 ARW — MacDill AFB, FL (Bldg 296)
Date: 27 August 2026
1.0 Project Title & Background
1.1 Project Title
Integrated Physical Access Control, IP Surveillance, Emergency Lockdown, and Active
Sound Masking System.
1.2 Background
The 927 ARW requires an active defense countermeasure and physical security system to secure classified and sensitive verbal communications and control physical access within government and military facilities located in Building 296, MacDill AFB.
Traditional passive security measures (such as high-STC concrete walls, acoustic doors, and multi-pane glass) remain vulnerable to physical intrusion, acoustic drift, and advanced technical surveillance. To address these vulnerabilities, this project integrates active, non-deterministic acoustic sound masking (white noise) to degrade the signal-to-noise ratio of leaking speech, alongside a physical access control system (PACS), IP surveillance cameras, and emergency lockdown controls.
2.0 Scope of Work
The Contractor shall provide all materials, equipment, labor, engineering, programming, commissioning, testing, and documentation required to install a fully functional, integrated security and sound masking system. The project comprises four primary technical tasks:
Task 1: Physical Access Control System (PACS) Installation
The Contractor shall install access control systems on four (4) designated doors. This includes:
• Installation of one (1) multi-door controller with secure readers. The hardware must integrate seamlessly as an expansion of the existing Kantech Physical Access Control
System (PACS) installed in Building 296 in 2024.
• Installation of four (4) door contacts for position monitoring.
• Installation of four (4) motorized latches and four (4) power transfer hinges.
• All associated low-voltage wiring, software licensing for the Kantech expansion, system programming, and integration into a central power supply.
Task 2: IP Surveillance & Emergency Lockdown System
The Contractor shall install a perimeter and interior monitoring system, featuring:
• Installation of two (2) 4-Megapixel (4MP) IP surveillance cameras. These cameras must integrate into the facility's existing ExacqVision Video Management System
(VMS) installed in Building 296 in 2024.
• Installation of two (2) Emergency Lockdown Buttons. These buttons shall consist of heavy-duty, guarded, or key-released emergency latching mushroom buttons.
• System Latching & Logic: Upon physical activation, the lockdown buttons shall act as dry contact input triggers to the controllers. The PACS software will instantly trigger a lockdown state on all PACS-controlled doors, locking them and denying access to all cardholders except those with pre-authorized override authority in the
PACS database.
• Network Scope Clarification: The lockdown system operates purely via software commands within the secure VLAN. The contractor is not responsible for physical termination of network switch ports or hardware power links.
• Integration of one (1) system Input/Output (I/O) module to interface the dry contact inputs from the lockdown buttons to the door controllers and status indicator systems.
• Provision and pull of four (4) dedicated data drops and all necessary system wiring.
Task 3: Active Sound Masking (White Noise) System
The Contractor shall install an active acoustic masking system across four (4) specified meeting rooms to protect speech privacy:
• System Architecture & Equipment: The system shall consist of two (2) Variable
Frequency (tunable/adjustable) Noise Generators and two (2) Dual Voltage
70V/100V 60W Amplifiers, covering a total of four (4) meeting rooms.
• Corridor & Room Layout:
• Each of the four (4) meeting room zones shall consist of three (3) 70V 5W speakers installed in the corridor outside the room (totaling twelve [12] corridor speakers across the project).
• A corridor-mounted lighted "Meeting in Progress" sign shall be installed outside each room above the doorway.
• A localized analog/digital volume control knob with a small feedback LED status indicator shall be installed inside each meeting room.
• Automated Relay Controls: The system shall utilize a multi-voltage relay so that turning on the localized volume control inside the meeting room automatically energizes both the corridor "Meeting in Progress" sign and the internal feedback
LED, providing immediate visual verification of active sound masking. No manual auxiliary push buttons are required for activation.
• Tuning & Calibration: Contractor technicians shall tune the active noise generators specifically to target the 1kHz to 4kHz frequency range, utilizing manufacturer presets with steep drop-offs above and below this range to mask normal conversational tones. Technicians shall adjust baseline amplifier gains to provide adequate sound levels to mask speech outside the room without causing occupant fatigue or disruption inside. The contractor shall rely on manufacturer documentation to verify frequencies and levels; a formally certified professional acoustic spectrum analysis report is not standard but can be provided as an optional, government-requested service.
Task 4: Elevator Shutdown Integration
The Contractor shall integrate controls to disable normal floor access and passenger transit during security events:
• Control Interface Specifications: Elevator shutdown shall be achieved via the interruption of the car call button on the ground floor elevator lobby utilizing a Form
C dry contact.
• Hardware Setup: The contractor shall install a PACS I/O module in the general proximity of the elevator control room and route dry contact wiring to the elevator controller input for the specific call button.
• Elevator Contractor Coordination: The contractor is responsible for installing the
I/O module and routing the control lines to the elevator control room. However, connection, programming, and termination inside the highly regulated elevator control panel must be executed in coordination with the Government's designated elevator service provider. Any service provider fees or direct coordination labor costs are the responsibility of the Government.
