Physical Security Systems

Montana is soliciting proposals to establish a Qualified Vendor List for security door systems, with proposals due October 5, 2026. The QVL will streamline future procurement of security door system installations and upgrades across Montana state agencies and potentially participating local jurisdictions by pre-qualifying vendors and reducing evaluation burden on individual purchasing requests.

Vendors must demonstrate capability to supply, install, and maintain security door systems that meet Montana's technical specifications and performance standards. Inclusion on the QVL requires meeting specific technical and operational qualification criteria established in the procurement framework.

The QVL development process will enable more efficient procurement by pre-vetting providers and restricting future security door system contracts to qualified, listed vendors. A government file (1424581-event.pdf, 356 KB) detailing vendor evaluation and qualification criteria is attached to the opportunity.
