Purchase of Surveillance Cameras

The Fontana Unified School District is seeking bids for the purchase of surveillance cameras under Bid No. 25/26-0006, located in San Bernardino County, California. The procurement specifically requires the acquisition of multiple AXIS brand camera models, including 5 AXIS P4708-PLVE Panoramic Cameras, 10 AXIS Q1728 Block Cameras, 5 AXIS Q1808-LE Bullet Cameras, 5 AXIS Q4809-PVE Panoramic Cameras, 2 AXIS Q6020-E Panoramic Cameras, 7 AXIS Q6078-E PTZ Cameras, 5 AXIS Q6300-E Panoramic Cameras, and 7 AXIS Q6358-LE PTZ Cameras. Bid documents were made available starting October 22, 2025, with a Request for Information (RFI) deadline of 12:00 pm on November 5, 2025. All vendor questions must be submitted through the e-procurement portal, and no substitutions will be accepted for the listed camera models. Bids are due by 2:00 pm on November 14, 2025, through the Procurement Portal at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/fusd. The district reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and waive any irregularities in the bidding process, with bidders unable to withdraw their proposals for 60 calendar days after the bid opening date.

The procurement does not explicitly mention set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders are not required to submit bids for all camera models and can propose pricing for individual camera types. The district will evaluate bids and potentially award contracts to multiple vendors or by individual line items, depending on what is deemed most beneficial to the school district. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, the bid documents indicate that quantities are projections and may be adjusted based on budgetary allocations. No incumbent vendors are mentioned, and the procurement appears to be a new camera system deployment. Pricing must be submitted on the provided Bid Form, with unit costs that do not include sales tax, and must account for delivery charges. The Board of Education plans to make the final award at its December 17, 2025 meeting, with the understanding that no cameras can be ordered prior to receiving a signed purchase order.
