This Statement of Objectives (SOO) details requirements for engineering, designing, furnishing, installing, and testing an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and Access Control System (ACS) for a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) at New Boston Space Force Station. The project is divided into two Contract Line Items (CLINs): CLIN 1 for design and CLIN 2 for installation, with a focus on creating a Vindicator platform-based system that complies with multiple security standards including UL 2050, DAFI 31-101, and Intelligence Community Tech Specs.

Key technical requirements include detecting intrusions, providing alarm annunciation, integrating with existing access control systems, ensuring cybersecurity, and supporting future expansion. The contractor must conduct a comprehensive site survey, develop detailed system architecture, configure software and hardware, manage cable installations, perform thorough testing, and provide comprehensive documentation and training. Installation restrictions are strict, including limitations on wall penetrations, conduit mounting, and power requirements. The project requires the use of US citizens without felony records, demands 24/7 warranty support, and necessitates coordination with NBSFS personnel throughout the design and installation phases.
