DOC_Access_Procedures-RED_WING.pdf

This document contains access procedures for the Red Wing Department of Corrections (DOC) facility related to RECS Project #78VA0012, a competitive solicitation for mechanical engineering services to manage Building Automation System (BAS) upgrades. The mandatory DOC access meeting is scheduled for November 10, 2026, at 9:00 AM Central Time at 1079 Highway 292 in Red Wing, Minnesota. The project involves overseeing and managing upgrades from Network Automation Engines (NAE) to Series Network Engines (SNE) hardware across multiple locations on both the Faribault and Red Wing DOC campuses in Minnesota. Bidders are required to attend this meeting, which will commence at the truck gate in the south parking lot where participants will be escorted to the Physical Plant Office for sign-in procedures.

The access procedures establish security and facility protocols for all site visit participants. Bidders may bring cameras and cell phones for photography purposes only, with the explicit restriction that no photographs are permitted of juvenile residents or adult inmates present at the facility. All attendees will undergo security screening at the truck gate to prevent contraband from entering the facility perimeter. These access requirements are mandatory components of the bidding process and reflect the secure nature of the DOC facility environment.
