Pelco Camera Equipment

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, specifically the Department of Corrections for the State Correctional Institution at Coal Township, is conducting an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for specialized Pelco camera equipment and accessories. The procurement involves a comprehensive security camera system including 30 POE190-BT midspan single port units, multiple video workstations and display decoders, HD LED monitors, media converters, wall mounts, and various camera models such as IBE229-1R, IBP3BBAP-ES, and S7230L-EW1 PTZ cameras. Bid submissions are due by February 21, 2023, at 9:00 AM, with electronic submission required. The evaluation criteria implicitly emphasize responsiveness and responsibility, with a focus on precise equipment specifications and compliance with worker protection certifications. Delivery is restricted to Monday through Friday, 7:45 AM to 3:00 PM, excluding state holidays, and no equipment substitutions will be permitted. Pricing is requested FOB destination, with payment contingent upon receipt, acceptance of items, and invoice submission.

The contract opportunity appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, though bidders must complete mandatory Worker Protection and Investment Certification forms. Contractors are required to perform direct labor exclusively within the United States or World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement countries, with mandatory disclosure of labor percentages and locations. Non-compliance could result in contract termination and potential three-year bidding ineligibility. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the security camera system suggests a potentially significant investment. The procurement is structured as a single award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the contract term commencing upon full purchase order execution and continuing through complete delivery, equipment acceptance, warranty period, and final payment. No incumbent vendors are identified in the available documentation, and no specific integration requirements with existing infrastructure are detailed.
