- Description
- Sole Source Synopsis: 1.1.1 Background The San Antonio Detention and Removal Office is constructing a new detention facility at Pearsall TX. Pearsall is approximately fifty (50) miles south of San Antonio on Interstate highway 35. Currently, there is no lodging available in Pearsall. Vendor should plan on having their installation team stay in San Antonio, TX. This facility will contain administrative and law enforcement staff from three different government agencies as well as offices for the detention/enforcement staff of the facility operators, Correction Services Corporation (CSC). The three different agencies are: Department of Homeland Security Detention and Removal Office (DHS/DRO); Department of Justice Executive Office of Immigration Review (DOJ/EOIR); U.S. Public Health Service (PHS). This new facility is a single story building with the capacity to accommodate one thousand illegal immigrant detainees. This structure is a single building (not a campus environment). That is approximately fourteen hundred (1400) feet long and four hundred (400) feet wide. The long axis of the complex is oriented in an east/west direction. The administrative staffs for the DRO, EOIR, PHS and CSC are located approximately in the middle of the facility. This administrative staff area is approximately three hundred (300) feet by three hundred (300) feet. The detention cells are located in pods extending to the east and west of the central office complex. The Immigrations and Customs Enforcement Telecommunications Office has installed an Avaya 8700 series public branch exchange (PBX)telephone system for the three government tenants (DRO, EOIR, and PHS). A separate telephone system for the CSC staff will be procured and installed by CSC for their staff. This Statement of Work (SOW) addresses only the requirements for the telephone system for the government tenants mentioned above and DOESNOT address the requirements for the CSC system. 1.1.2 Objectives The San Antonio DRO has procured and installed an Avaya S8710 PBX with redundant processors (high reliability). The system was installed in June 2005 and the facility is operational. The new system supports personnel with digital or analog telephone instruments and integrated voicemail. The new system has sufficient RTU?s and voice mail ports to accommodate 100 users. The newly installed system currently has voice mail for 100 users and sufficient RTU?s for the sixty nine (69) telephones currently deployed. It is the intent of the government to expand the existing system to accommodate additional staff members. The configuration/capability specified in this SOW shall be the requirements for the expansion portion of the system and does not address the current configuration of the system. The expansion of the system capacity shall not render the equipment installed under the initial operational capability installation obsolete. There are underground/under slab conduits between the three server rooms. One 4? conduit runs from the DRO phone room to the EOIR phone room and one 4? conduit runs from the DRO phone room to the PHS phone room. There are no interconnecting conduits between the PHS and EOIR phone rooms. The approximate distance between the DRO phone room and the EOIR phone room is one hundred and sixty (160) feet. The approximate distance between the DRO phone room and the PHS phone room is one hundred forty (140) feet. The voice cabling for the DRO area will terminate in the DRO phone/server room, EOIR in the EOIR phone/server room and the PHS cabling in the PHS phone/server room etc. The government will have a copper tie cable running between the three government tenant phone/server rooms. The PBX is currently located in the DRO phone/server room and connects to the EOIR and PHS phone/server rooms via a copper tie cable. The telephone instruments for the PHS have already been distributed and no further instruments will be placed in the area. A majority of the new telephone instruments will be distributed in the ICE area with the balance of the instruments placed in the EOIR section. The final instrument count to be distributed to each of the ICE and EOIR offices is currently TBD and will be determined at a later date, but prior to installation. Key criteria in evaluation of this proposal will be the following: 1. Vendor?s ability to commit to and guarantee a system installation completion date of TWO WEEKS after receipt of the Purchase Order. System installation shall not exceed five (5) days including equipment installation and system programming 2.
