The Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command is seeking a Honeywell Vindicator certified contractor to procure and install a comprehensive security system at the Joint Electromagnetic Warfare Center, located in Building 1003 at Joint Base San Antonio Lackland-Kelly Annex. The project requires installation of an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and Access Control System (ACS) across approximately 2,610 square feet, involving sophisticated security components such as card/badge readers, magnetic door locks, surveillance cameras, and control panels. Contractors must meet stringent technical requirements, including implementing Vindicator 1500 or V5 system components, installing balanced magnetic switches and passive infrared sensors, and establishing battery backup infrastructure. Respondents are required to submit their company name, CAGE code, and Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) by June 13, 2025, with the opportunity being evaluated based on technical capabilities specific to Honeywell Vindicator system expertise. All installation work must comply with federal security standards including IC Tech Spec for ICD/ICS 705, UL 2050, and Department of Defense information security regulations.

The contract is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, targeting security systems services under NAICS category 561621. Only U.S. citizen personnel will be permitted to work on this project, with contractors required to provide a comprehensive 1-year warranty and conduct system training for designated staff. The project will involve multi-phase testing and certification processes, with close coordination required with the 802 Security Forces Squadron/Electronic Security Systems for system programming and final certification. While specific award values are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the complexity of the security system installation and the specialized Honeywell Vindicator certification requirements suggest a potentially significant contract value. Contractors will need to demonstrate extensive technical expertise in security systems installation, with a particular focus on meeting the precise specifications outlined in the Statement of Work for this high-security government facility.
