IFB #27-20-ENG CUMBERLAND COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY VIDEO SECURITY SYSTEM

The County of Cumberland is soliciting bids under IFB #27-20-ENG for the upgrade of video surveillance systems across eight library branches, including Bordeaux, Cliffordale, East Regional, Headquarters, Hope Mills, North Regional, Spring Lake, and West Regional. The scope of work requires the vendor to provide all labor, materials, and professional services to furnish and install Avigilon cameras and accessories, provide Avigilon Control Center (ACC) v7 Enterprise licenses, and supply CAT6 Plenum Rated cabling for LAN infrastructure support. Because this project must integrate with the County's existing system, the use of Avigilon products is mandatory, and any bids proposing equivalent alternatives will be rejected. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Bids must be submitted in a sealed package with an electronic copy on a flash drive in .PDF or .XLS format by December 1, 2026. The initial contract term is one year, with the County holding the option to renew for up to two additional one-year terms, provided that funding is appropriated by the County Board of Commissioners. Key requirements include a certification of financial soundness, compliance with E-Verify and affirmative action laws, and the maintenance of adequate insurance authorized in North Carolina. Payment terms are net thirty calendar days following invoice approval.
