- Description
- RFI - 111411 - 003 - Mass Notification System The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is seeking information from companies, educational institutions, research and development laboratories (public and private), or other sources about commercially and government available equipment (COTS/GOTS) or near-commercial technologies that may be used for mass notification capabilities at Government installations. This sources sought is part of an overall strategy to identify the next generation of Mass Warning Notification Systems (MWNS) for fielding in fiscal 2012. The information obtained by this sources sought will be included in a market study that will be coupled with an evaluation process to determine what system or systems should be recommended for inclusion in and Emergency Management solution set. We are interested in information on systems that would be usable for integrating with multiple MWNS vendors to provide a layered approach to mass notification. Specifically, we are looking for information regarding the expected technical capability and effectiveness of currently deployed systems with respect to proven capability to integrate with other vendors and an example as to where this capability has been deployed. Operational issues, specifically mean time between failure rates, scalability, and interoperability, are of particular interest. Other issues that might impact operations, such as IP requirements, radio frequencies approvals, civil construction, network approvals, and calibration, reliability and robustness, training requirements (must not require extensive user training), and health and safety issues are also of interest. Of key interest is the ability to notify installation and non-installation (Transient) populations via desktop pop ups, texts to mobile devices, Voice Over IP (VOIP), Alert Beacons, Digital Signage Override, PA/Fire Alarm, wide area notification, and e-mail Interest is also in both fixed and portable systems. Additional information and instructions are provided in the attached document
