AI Contract Overview
The Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Security and Law Enforcement is seeking a provider to upgrade the video surveillance system at the West Los Angeles VA Campus. The current infrastructure suffers from coverage gaps and aging equipment, which hinders the ability of security personnel to effectively monitor the campus and respond to incidents. The primary goal of this project is to modernize the surveillance network to better protect veterans, staff, and visitors. A critical component of this upgrade is the integration of Artificial Intelligence capabilities designed to detect weapons in plain view. This AI technology will augment VA Police operations by providing real-time alerts and accelerating response times to visible threats. This sources-sought opportunity, identified by solicitation number 36C10B26Q0746 under NAICS code 541519, requires responses by August 17, 2026.

Full Description
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Office of Security and Law Enforcement (OSLE), is a federal law enforcement organization with specialized responsibilities for reducing crime and protecting persons and assets within the jurisdictional boundaries of the Department of Veterans Affairs. OSLE is charged with safeguarding Veterans, their families, VA employees, volunteers, visitors, and contractors, as well as the physical infrastructure, medical assets, and sensitive information housed within VA facilities. In carrying out this mission, OSLE oversees VA Police operations, physical security programs, and the integration of security technologies that support the protection of VA persons and property.
To ensure the safety and security of the Veterans, their families, VA staff, and VA facilities, OSLE has determined that the existing video surveillance system at the West Los Angeles VA Campus requires significant improvements, as it does not provide the coverage, reliability, or capability necessary to support modern security operations across a campus of this size and population density. Identified deficiencies including gaps in camera coverage, aging or degraded equipment, limited real-time monitoring capability, and the absence of intelligent analytics constrain OSLE's ability to detect, deter, and respond to security incidents in a timely manner and place an unsustainable burden on personnel who must manually monitor a large volume of camera feeds. Addressing these deficiencies is essential to protecting the growing resident population at NCWI and maintaining a secure environment across the West Los Angeles VA Campus.
In support of enhanced security operations, the VA intends to incorporate Artificial Intelligence (AI) capabilities to assist in reviewing surveillance footage, enabling the rapid identification of weapons that are in plain view and not concealed. AI-based detection is intended to augment not replace, the vigilance of VA Police and security personnel by continuously analyzing video feeds, flagging visible weapons in real time, and accelerating the delivery of actionable alerts to responders. By pairing an upgraded, reliable video surveillance infrastructure with AI-driven weapons detection, OSLE seeks to reduce the time between the appearance of a visible threat and an effective security response. Early detection of brandished weapons can provide critical seconds for personnel to initiate protective actions, notify law enforcement, and safeguard the Veterans, families, and staff who live and work on the West Los Angeles VA Campus.
