This project targets municipal buildings and critical infrastructure in Talbot County, Georgia, aiming to replace or upgrade existing security systems to enhance employee, public, and asset safety. The procurement seeks a qualified firm capable of delivering a robust PACS solution that ensures compliance with current security standards.
