● Function: Discreet dome-form factor camera providing ultra-high-definition (4K) resolution and smart motion analytics.

● Application: Interior monitoring for high-traffic or sensitive indoor areas requiring low-profile hardware.

4. HDD, Western Digital Security Purple, 8TB

● Function: Surveillance-optimized storage media designed for 24/7 continuous write operations.

● Application: Video data retention supporting compliance and evidentiary review requirements.

5. Switch, 16-Port Gigabit Unmanaged POE+ (NETGEAR GS316PP)

● Function: Managed-lite PoE+ switches providing high-bandwidth data connectivity and centralized power for network cameras.

● Application: Network distribution and power management for all IP surveillance endpoints.

→ 1-Year Warranty

● Provision: Full coverage for hardware failure and workmanship defects for a period of twelve (12) months following final acceptance.

● Application: Service Level Agreement (SLA) to ensure continuous system operational readiness.

Summary: This requirement provides an integrated, high-availability surveillance solution for the NOAA NMSAS Tauese P.F. Sunia Ocean Center. All components are selected for maximum reliability and interoperability.

Security Cameras

The system architecture comprises 12 exterior and 8 interior IP cameras integrated into a network-based recording system, with a minimum retention period of 30 days.

→ Exterior Cameras: A total of 12 exterior cameras will be needed.

Power supplies (DC 12.0V⎓1A, <12W) must be weather-rated for exterior use where applicable.

Installation coordinates for the 12 exterior cameras are as follows:

Camera 1: Main reception (facing parking lot) Camera 2: Main reception (facing entrance to reception) Camera 3: Garage Camera 4: Back area (facing rotunda emergency exit) Camera 5: Back area (facing Science lab) Camera 6: Back area (facing office emergency exit) Camera 7: Gift shop entrance Camera 8: Side area (facing government lot) Camera 9: Rotunda entrance Camera 10: Extended office space to government lot entrance Camera 11: Extended office space entrance/exit side door Camera 12: Extended office space to office back area

→ Interior Cameras: A total of 8 interior cameras will be installed.

The power supplies DC 12.0V⎓1A, <12W are to be of an outlet plugin style.

Installation coordinates for the 8 interior cameras are as follows:

Camera 13: Sanctuary Room Camera 14: Reception Area Camera 15: Rotunda (facing control room)

Camera 16: Rotunda (facing entrance) Camera 17: Gift Shop Camera 18: Science lab Camera 19: Kid’s corner Camera 20: New extension

The primary Monitoring Station (Head-End) is located at the Reception Desk. Remote viewing capabilities are required for the Superintendent, Deputy Superintendent, and Staff Area offices.

System Requirements

● All cameras must be installed to provide comprehensive coverage of exterior and interior areas as determined during the site assessment.

● The NVR must be configured to store recorded video data for a minimum of 30 days.

● All equipment must be installed in accordance with manufacturer specifications and local code requirements.

● The system must support remote viewing and playback by authorized personnel.

Implementation Plan:

● The contractor will install 13 Reolink RLC-811A cameras to cover exterior entrances, parking areas, and perimeter zones, and 7 Reolink Cx820 Dome cameras for interior hallways and common areas.

● All cameras will be connected via Cat6 cabling to two Netgear GS316PP PoE switches, which in turn connect to the Reolink RLN36 NVR. The NVR will be equipped with two 8TB Western Digital Purple drives for video storage.

● Installation materials such as weatherproof boxes and conduit will be used to protect cabling and connections.

MITIGATING SUPPLY CHAIN RISK [OCT 2023]

The Department of Commerce (DOC) utilizes a Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) Program to identify, assess, and monitor supply chain risks of critical vendors. The Government may use any information, public and non-public, including all-source intelligence for its analysis. The Contractor agrees that the Government may, at its own discretion, perform audits of supply chain risk processes or events consistent with other terms in the contract regarding access to records and audits. An onsite assessment may be required. Through the information obtained from a SCRM program, DOC may assess vendors and products through multiple risk lenses such as national security, cybersecurity, compliance, and finance. If supply chain risks are identified and corrective action becomes necessary, mutually agreeable corrective actions will be sought based upon specific identified risks. Failure to resolve any identified risk may result in contract termination.
