- Description
- The Federal Bureau of Prisons (Bureau) has a requirement for a firm-fixed price with multiple-year (base year, with 4 option years) contract for Trunked Land Mobile Radio System (LMR) and Maintenance to provide communications for officer's safety and Bureau institutional operations. A typical configuration shall be a single site trunked system operating with-in UHF 406-420 MHz. The system shall have multiple repeater channels and use a 3600 baud control channel or higher. The system shall dynamically and automatically assign a small number of frequencies to gain their maximum use. Each system must be equipped with an emergency alarm notification that must be received and transmitted through the trunking control channel. It is essential that immediate emergency notification be provided to a system dispatcher even when all voice channels are busy. The equipment shall include radio frequency (RF) infrastructure equipment and subscriber radios. Services will include: project management, systems engineering, design, staging, site preparation/development, equipment installation and optimization, acceptance testing, and training. In addition to infrastructure equipment, Bureau sites require an equipment shelter of an adequate size to house the proposed infrastructure equipment and management terminals, as well as an adequate work space. Infrastructure installation may also specify a provision for self-supporting tower (PiROD SU Series, or equivalent). In some instances, system installation may integrate an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). Site development could necessitate a generator to provide back-up electrical power. The requirement will include radio communications repair and maintenance services to support the critical operations of Bureau two-way radio communications assets. This requirement must provide for the diagnostics, components, and technical services required for the restoration of defective radio equipment back to factory specified operating condition. Prospective vendors must be capable of servicing existing digital, analog, conventional and trunked radio formats comprising of Motorola 3600 and 9600 baud trunking infrastructure, conventional base stations, portable, mobile, and control products utilized by the Bureau institutions, as well as the new equipment and systems proposed under this requirement. It is essential each vendor, for this requirement, possess the capability to execute all equipment and service requirements. Comprehensive procurement and maintenance of all assets, by one vendor will provide the Bureau assurance that all equipment will operate reliably under all circumstances, while eliminating the possibility of non-compatibility between individually serviced equipment. One vendor will ensure the Bureau management of this program will not exceed current government work loads and resources. Participation by small, small dis-advantaged, HUBZone small businesses, women-owned businesses, veteran-owned businesses is encouraged. Faith-based and Community-based Organizations have the rights to submit offers/bids equally with other organizations for contract for which they are eligible. Proposals received in response to this solicitation will be evaluated by the Government pursuant to the FAR. This agency will consider all proposals submitted by responsible sources. The solicitation, which includes instructions for submitting proposals, will be available on or about April 04, 2016. This solicitation is unrestricted. For inquiries or clarifications, please contact Sylvia Perine, Contract Specialist, National Acquisitions Section at sperinefonteno@bop.gov. No telephone call inquiries will be accepted.
