We need 7 dual authentication readers and 16 regular readers. Does the contractor need to provide their own network switch? Yes Does the contractor need to run data cabling for the server located in the Facility room to the IDF closet ? As well to any new workstations at the site? No, current cabling is sufficient. What is the total reader count for this installation? Will new smart card readers be needed as part of the installation or is it the desire of the VA to reuse existing readers? We need 7 dual authentication readers and 16 regular badge readers. Will the VA be amenable to installation of a Lenel 4420 Panel in lieu of the 2220 due to product depreciation and future compliance? Yes Is the integrator responsible for connecting panic buttons? If so, what is the total count? No Will the contractor be able to respond to service calls remotely in some circumstances (troubleshooting, etc. if we have VA zero accounts)?

ActivID/ActivClient version 7.2.2 and perspecta What is the total PIV population identified for the Houston VBA 700+ Is the site aware of the transition to the version 8.1 PIV credential and associated impacts (i.e. do any users have the 8.1 credential)? This is the reason we are upgrading. The current PACS does not work with V8 cards. The IDF rooms are where the panels are located. Are there multiple panel locations and how many card readers go to each panel location. All panels are located in one room. I believe there are four per panel. Are the panel dimensions 3Qty 24Wx35.5H and 3Qty 18Wx24H and 1Qty 15Wx18.5H Are the enclosures only access control panels or are they power supplies? What panel sizes for power supplies and what panel size for the access control panel It s also power supply I have a couple of other questions, in the RFI responses it states there are 25 access control door to be converted. Does this accommodate for the transcore readers on the parking gate? Do we need to include converting controllers that are for the parking control gates in the parking area? If so how many of those are there? Parking gates are not included.
