CCTV SECURITY SYSTEMS- INSTALLATION, REPAIRS, PARTS AND ACCESSORIES, SDMC No. 26-0045-MR

The School District of Manatee County, Florida, is seeking a pre-qualified list of providers for CCTV security systems installation, repairs, parts, and accessories through a Request for Proposal (RFP) with solicitation number 26-0045-MR. The procurement aims to establish a contract for furnishing labor, equipment, and materials to service, repair, replace, or install security systems, vaping detector devices, and monitoring equipment across district schools and departments. Proposers will be evaluated across four key categories: executive summary (25 points), qualifications (35 points), licenses (10 points), and pricing (30 points). The proposal submission deadline is July 1, 2025, with an anticipated contract term from September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2028, and potential renewal options for two additional one-year periods. Required documentation includes comprehensive submissions covering executive summaries, qualifications, licenses, references, and various certifications such as drug-free workplace, E-Verify compliance, and anti-discrimination statements. Evaluation will focus on technicians' hourly rates for standard and non-standard work hours, percentage discounts on product lines, and monthly monitoring rates for existing fire and security systems.

The RFP does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Proposers will be required to submit detailed documentation demonstrating their organizational capabilities, including professional licenses, technical certifications, and proof of compliance with various workplace regulations. The estimated total contract value is approximately $2,000,000 annually, though the district emphasizes that actual purchase volumes may vary significantly. Potential vendors should be prepared to provide comprehensive security system services, including installation, repair, and monitoring of existing infrastructure, with a particular focus on adaptability to the district's current technological ecosystem. Successful contractors will need to demonstrate robust technical expertise in security system design, implementation, and maintenance, with the ability to integrate new technologies with existing district security frameworks. The multi-year contract structure suggests the district is seeking long-term, reliable partnerships with vendors capable of providing consistent, high-quality security system services across multiple educational facilities.
