The procurement seeks a radio signal enhancer solution for Paul Laurence Dunbar High School, requiring a comprehensive communication system that enables portable radio communications throughout the entire school building and property borders. The system must connect to Lexington Police Department antennas, with proposals due on August 29, 2025, at 2:00 PM EST. The preferred contract period is from November 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026, with potential renewals for up to five total years. A mandatory site visit is required prior to the proposal deadline, and all work must be performed during non-school hours to minimize student disruption.

The evaluation process will utilize a 1,000-point scoring system, with 500 points for the technical proposal and 500 points for the cost proposal. Bidders must have offices within 120 miles of the school and provide three references for similar projects completed in the past two years. The existing communication infrastructure uses Tait and Harris portable radios on Lexington Fayette County Government's radio towers, and the new system must be compatible and enhance current capabilities. While no specific budget range is stated, contractors must provide a detailed cost breakdown. The contract will be awarded to the responsible and responsive offeror providing the best value, considering both technical capabilities and cost-effectiveness. The procurement emphasizes a preference for Kentucky-based businesses and includes provisions for equal opportunity and non-discrimination.
