DHR Montgomery Co - Fire Alarm Monitoring FY27

Montgomery County Department of Human Resources is requesting quotes for fire alarm monitoring, cellular fire alarm communication service, and Area of Rescue (AOR) service under Round 1 solicitation, with quotes due September 23, 2026. A site visit is recommended.

The scope covers 24-hour monitoring and communication services at a single location (3030 Mobile Highway, Montgomery, Alabama 36108) using existing equipment with no changes, removals, or additions permitted. The service period runs October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027. Pricing must be quoted on a quarterly basis for each service line item, with all prices firm and fixed through September 30, 2027. Payment terms are net 30 days, paid in arrears following service delivery.

If any bidder is the sole proprietary supplier for the equipment at this location, that supplier must attach a letter in AL Buys with the bid submission identifying proprietary supplier status and providing justification for the designation.

The maximum total contract cost is $25,000, inclusive of the original agreement and any subsequent annual renewals, or five years from the effective date, whichever occurs first. Resulting contracts may be renewed annually by written agreement of both parties. The State reserves the right to conduct cost realism and price reasonableness analysis on all bids. Price escalation requests during performance are limited to documented increases in material and labor costs, not to exceed industry-specific or Consumer Price Index increases, with maximum approved increases capped at five percent of annual contract cost.

Suppliers must register in Alabama Buys and submit responses electronically prior to close. Foreign entities must register with the Alabama Secretary of State; suppliers employing workers in Alabama must be E-Verify enrolled. Disputes are resolved through negotiation, mediation, or the Board of Adjustment in Montgomery, Alabama, under Alabama law.
