DOC Door Control System Refurbishment SBE Vendors Only

The District of Columbia has released a state and local contract opportunity (ID: 6773df56463245dc7007dd24) for a Door Control System Refurbishment project specifically targeted at Small Business Enterprise (SBE) vendors. The procurement appears to be focused on upgrading or refurbishing door control systems for a District government facility or facilities, with a comprehensive approach to system improvements. The contract requires vendors to provide detailed technical solutions for door control infrastructure, potentially including hardware replacement, software integration, and system modernization. Vendors must demonstrate expertise in door control technologies and have the capability to execute a complex technical retrofit. The solicitation was posted on December 30, 2024, with proposals due by January 8, 2025, indicating a relatively short procurement timeline of approximately nine days for interested SBE vendors to prepare and submit their responses.

This contract opportunity is exclusively reserved for Small Business Enterprise (SBE) vendors, which suggests a deliberate effort by the District of Columbia to support smaller, local businesses in procurement opportunities. The SBE-only designation implies strict vendor qualification requirements, likely including certification as a small business within the District's jurisdiction. While specific budget details are not provided, door control system refurbishment projects typically range from $50,000 to $250,000 depending on the scope and complexity of the existing infrastructure. The procurement appears to target vendors with specialized technical expertise in door control systems, security infrastructure, and potentially electronic access control technologies. Interested SBE vendors will need to demonstrate comprehensive capabilities in system design, installation, integration, and potential ongoing maintenance or support services for the door control system refurbishment project.
