USNA CAC Card Readers

The United States Naval Academy (USNA), through the Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center, Norfolk, is seeking a sole-source contract with Convergint Federal to install three access control card readers in Bancroft Hall. Specifically, the project requires adding readers to two doors in King Hall and one door in the Chesapeake Suite, utilizing Lenel reader boards, power supplies, powered exit devices, and HID card readers with pin pad access. The procurement will follow Simplified Acquisition Procedures as a Firm Fixed Price contract, with offerors required to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM). The evaluation process will be conducted in two phases, first assessing technical compliance and then evaluating pricing. Quotations are due by 12:00 PM EST on June 11, 2025, and must be submitted electronically via SAM.gov.

The contract is not set aside for a specific small business category, though the NAICS code 561621 has a $25 million standard size. The project is focused on enhancing the existing access control system using Convergint Federal's OnGuard Enterprise system with custom configurations and proprietary HID pivCLASS middleware for CAC reader credentials. The period of performance spans from June 6, 2025, to August 15, 2025, with the work to be performed at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. The sole-source justification emphasizes the need for maintaining system compatibility, security hardening, and reducing maintenance complexity by working with the current system provider. The specific technical requirements include installing and programming the new card readers to integrate seamlessly with the existing security infrastructure.
