SITE VISIT QUESTIONS

Background: Document “2.1.2a 24R0035 ATTACHMENT 1_Rev.pdf” shows six (6) displays in the WOC extension elevation, but the solicitation document 24R0035 Solicitation.pdf” references eight (8) displays.

1. Can we assume that the elevation should represent 4-wide by 2-tall array in that room for a total of eight (8) displays in WOC extension room?

Response: Concur elevation should represent 4-wide by 2-tall array in that room for a total of eight (8) displays in WOC extension room per item. 2.3.3 of solicitation.

Background: Document “2.1.2a 24R0035 ATTACHMENT 1_Rev.pdf” the diagram depicts six

(6) sources per network and a total of ten (10) seated positions between the WOC and the WOC extension room.

2. Will each seated position have two (2) computers dedicated to them (one for NIPR and one SIPR) for a total of 20 sources, or should the AV system support 12 HDMI video sources with the option to add an additional 4 sources in the future for a total of 16 sources?

Response: Not every seated computer position requires connectivity to the AV System. Reference Document “2.1.2a 24R0035 ATTACHMENT 1_Rev.pdf” page 6 for required input locations to AV System, and page 7 for required output locations of AV System.

Background: Document “2.1.2a 24R0035 ATTACHMENT 1_Rev.pdf” the diagram depicts a total of ten (10) seated positions between the WOC and the WOC extension room.

3. If there are multiple computers at each seated position will a Secure KVM be required with keyboard and mouse functionality?

Response: KVM are not in scope of solicitation unless it is required for proposed vendors design in order to incorporate workstation’s displayed image on desk Monitor to AV System Monitor. The requirement is that the source inputs indicated on “Document “2.1.2a 24R0035 ATTACHMENT 1_Rev.pdf” page 6 are able to display to the outputs of any monitors of the AV system as indicated on page 7 of “Document “2.1.2a 24R0035 ATTACHMENT 1_Rev.pdf”

4. If computers are located at each seated position, then will an AV systems transport for dedicated USB channels be required for two factor authentication systems like CAC readers and PKIs?

Response: Not required for scope of work.

5. If there are multiple secure networks apart from NIPR and SIPR please clarify how many secure networks the system should support.

Response: The system shall support thee input sources per 2.5.2.1. “Fiber isolators shall have three (3) input sources and one (1) output control.”

6. Please confirm the functional expectation (system operation) for each level of classification selection for programming of this system.

Response: 2.1.2 describes the requirements of the system operation for each level.

3.1.11.1 Describes the required functions for conferencing.

i.e., The ability to show both Unclassified and Classified sources simultaneously on different windowed layouts on the video wall will be required.

Response: Concur.

i.e., When only Unclassified information is routed, and no Classified information is shown on any display within the room then the system would report status as unclassified to automated digital signage exterior to the suite.

Response: Not required, The Solicitation doesn’t reference exterior signage.

Background: Document “24R0035 Solicitation.pdf” states in 2.1.2. AV room control system requires three (3) wired touch panels in designated areas as the primary room controllers.

7. We have identified two (2) spaces, is the third a rack touch panel for testing and troubleshooting?

Response: The touch panels location are (2) in WOC and (1) in WOC expansion;

one for each workbench area.

8. Would a 10” touch panel meet the requirement? Response: Concur

Background: Document ““24R0035 Solicitation.pdf” states in 2.2.2.1.1. there will be room classification status.

9. Are the room classification signs existing GFE devices (if so, please provide make and model for programming)?

Response: Not requested in solicitation.

10. Please confirm that both rooms will always operate at the same classification

(diagrams do not show separate systems).

Response: The rooms will operate at secret level; however, if no secret is being displayed the system should indicate unclassified as listed under 2.1.2. requirements.

Background: Document “24R0035 Solicitation.pdf” states in 2.2.2.1.3. Video call status.

11. MS Teams is now available in the Unclassified domain; would the mission want to move to MS Teams for video calls in the Unclassified domain?

Response: MS Team integration is not required for AV system.

12. Would it be preferred to provide a traditional dedicated VTC codec for conferencing on each network?

Response: SWFPAC Personnel doesn’t have AV expertise to answer question directly. The CODEC shall meet DoD Standards, if there is a DoD standard, please provide reference, that states we can utilize one CODEC for multiple classification, if not the traditional dedicated VTC codec for conferencing is preferred for each network.

Background: Document “24R0035 Solicitation.pdf” states in 2.2. AV Systems Sources.

13. 2.2.1. Table Workstation AV Interfaces (HDMI). We are assuming that the encoders in attachment reference 1 are these HDMI connections and a minimum of 12 HDMI video sources with the option to add an additional 4 sources in the future for a total of 16 sources should be supported.

Response: Per page 6 of document “2.1.2a 24R0035 ATTACHMENT 1_Rev.pdf” there are 16 inputs for unclassified systems and 16 inputs for classified systems.

14. Multiple video sources from multiple rooms shall be able to utilize (up to quad Screen - 4 HDMI Interfaces). The diagrams show single outputs for the displays.

Can you confirm if it desired for a single video source to be expanded or blown up to be shown in a larger fashion across a 2x2 segment of screens for detail review?

Response: Confirmed per 2.2.2 item requires quad screen display for WOC screens.

Preferred quad capability in center of WOC space.

Background: Document “24R0035 Solicitation.pdf” regarding section 3. Video Conferencing Capabilities.

15. Does the mission require separate VTC capabilities for each space, or one (1) for both spaces together?

Response: Only required in WOC space.

16. Is the multiple time zones display clock in scope of work for replacement.

Response: Not in scope; however, display clock can be moved by contractors to support purposed monitor layout.

17. Are there raised floors in WOC space?

Response: There are raised floors in about half of the WOC room in area furthest away from Display monitors on wall.

18. Is room 101 off of WOC room?

Response: Yes, reference page 6 of document “2.1.2a 24R0035 ATTACHMENT 1_Rev.pdf” for approximated location.

19. AV Equipment location?

Response: Recommendation is to leverage government provided equipment racks indicated “2.1.2a 24R0035 ATTACHMENT 1_Rev.pdf”; however, if proposal requires additional racks or replacement of racks this needs to be indicated and concurred as a valid solution due to limited spaces in rooms.

20. Can a AV Rack be placed next to ELMR Radio Equipment rack.

Response: No, there is tempest requirements to keep ELMR radio rack away from other IT Equipment racks.

21. Grounding requirements?
