Security System Design and Integration II (SSDI II)
1. Introduction/Purpose
The FAA has a requirement to perform the complete technical refresh of security systems at staffed facilities. The purpose of this Market Survey is to solicit statements of interest and capabilities for interested vendors.
Technical Refresh can vary from the replacement of fully integrated Physical Access Control System (PACS), Surveillance System, and Perimeter Intrusion Detection System, to replacing intercoms and door hardware. Access control systems must meet Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12 (HSPD-12) and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) requirements and be on the General Services Administration (GSA) approved parts list. Access control devices for small facilities will be networked to shared security servers. All facilities must be able to be remotely monitored by the FAAbs Physical Security Enterprise Management System (PSEMS) which can manage alarms, alarm video, and Personal Identity Verification (PIV) cardholder access. The FAAbs current PSEMS includes Kaplogic (Aegis 3), TI (Entrypoint), JCI (P2000), and Pelco subsystems.
The prospective company must provide a Commercial-Off-the-Shelf PACS, as well as design, integration, procurement, installation, documentation, and testing and training for the integrated system and each system, subsystem, or component. There are approximately 1,100 staffed facilities that will require some level of technical refresh during the contract period of performance. The anticipated period of performance is a total of ten years, including a 2-year base and four 2-year options.
2. Incumbent Contractor
This is a follow-on contract to the Security Systems Design and Integration Contract (DTFAWA-08-D-00010) held by Versar Security Systems, LLC, located in Springfield, Virginia.
3. Nature of Competition
The acquisition strategy for the procurement has not been determined at this time; however, either an unrestricted competition or a set-aside will be chosen depending on the responses to the market survey. The FAA will consider information submitted in response to this market survey in determining the method and type of procurement competition. The failure to obtain adequate and appropriate SBA 8(a) or other small business participation may result in a determination to conduct this procurement under unrestricted competitive procedures. If the FAA decides to conduct an open competition, it may limit the competition to only those vendors who respond to this market survey.
The FAA requires copies of certification letters for interested service-disabled veteran-owned business or eligible socially and economically disadvantaged businesses that are certified by the Small Business Administration (SBA) for participation in the SBAbs 8(a) Program.
