Royal Oak Public Library Camera Refresh

The City of Royal Oak is seeking electronic proposals for a comprehensive Public Library Camera Refresh project through a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued for Oakland County, Michigan. The procurement opportunity involves a 100% turnkey solution to replace the existing Avigilon digital camera system with new IP cameras that will integrate into the city's current Genetec security system. Only Genetec active certified integrators are eligible to bid, with the project requiring complete demolition of existing cameras and wiring, installation of new cameras across multiple library locations, and full system programming. Key deliverables include installing various camera types such as outdoor dome, fixed mini dome, and panoramic multi-sensor cameras, with specific technical requirements for Axis and Hanwha camera models. The proposal requires comprehensive documentation, including shop drawings, product data, and certifications. Critical dates include a mandatory pre-proposal meeting on February 4, 2025, proposal submissions due by February 25, 2025 at 12:00 pm, contractor selection on March 11, 2025, project start on March 17, 2025, and completion by June 2, 2025. Evaluation criteria will focus on previous experience, performance, and the overall best interest of the city.

The RFP includes specific requirements for bidders, mandating a 5% bid bond and comprehensive insurance coverage with limits ranging from $100,000 to $1,000,000 across various liability categories. Bidders must provide a non-collusion affidavit, verify they are not an "Iran Linked Business," and comply with CJIS (Criminal Justice Information Services) standards for personnel system access. The project requires a five-year manufacturer warranty for cameras and mounts, plus a one-year integrator parts and labor warranty. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned, the existing infrastructure involves integration with the Genetec Security Center Enterprise 5.10 system at the Royal Oak City Center network. The project will require comprehensive system integration, including Ethernet cabling, endpoint licenses, and importing camera locations onto existing floor plans. Though a precise budget is not explicitly stated, the detailed technical specifications and comprehensive integration requirements suggest a significant investment in modernizing the library's security infrastructure.
