CCTV and Swipe Access

Greater Bridgeport Transit (GBT) is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP 31670) for the design, installation, configuration, and support of a comprehensive Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) Security System and swipe access control systems across three GBT facilities. The procurement seeks vendors to provide scalable, high-resolution video surveillance systems that support incident review functions and integrate with existing access control and alarm systems. Key deliverables include conducting a site survey of GBT's facilities, recommending optimal camera locations and system configurations, installing the CCTV infrastructure, configuring the systems, and providing ongoing support services. GBT explicitly notes the absence of on-staff security expertise and is requesting that the selected vendor perform comprehensive site assessments to identify and recommend solutions that best meet the organization's security needs. The RFP was posted on August 4, 2025, with a vendor question and answer period running from August 4, 2025 at 11:45 AM EDT through August 14, 2025 at 4:00 PM EDT.

No incumbent vendor or current contractor has been identified, indicating this may represent a new implementation or a replacement of existing systems. The proposal will require integration with GBT's existing alarm systems and access control infrastructure, necessitating vendor familiarity with system integration capabilities.
