J063--VA Security Cameras Installation

The Department of Veterans Affairs, through the VA Loma Linda Healthcare System, is soliciting quotes for a comprehensive security camera installation project at their facility in Loma Linda, California. This combined synopsis/solicitation is issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ) under a total set-aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB). The contract involves upgrading the existing security camera system by installing a network video recorder (NVR), seven new interior cameras—including Axis P4705 Dual Lens and P3737 Quad Lens models—appropriate mounting equipment, shielded Cat6 cabling, and related hardware compatible with LenelS2 and Milestone Video Management Systems. The vendor is responsible for providing the equipment, full installation, termination, programming, and rough-in pathways according to the manufacturer’s specifications and in close coordination with the VA Office of Information Technology and Security personnel. The contract includes a one-year warranty on parts and labor, with work primarily scheduled Monday through Friday during normal business hours, though some after-hours and weekend work may be necessary to minimize disruption of healthcare operations. The period of performance is 180 days following contract award, with the base contract spanning from June 15, 2026, to June 14, 2027. Prospective vendors must meet safety requirements including OSHA 10-hour and 30-hour safety course certifications, adhere to national electrical and telecommunications standards, and prepare a VA-approved site-specific safety plan. Compliance with numerous FAR and VAAR provisions will be mandatory, including clauses addressing personnel vetting, subcontracting limitations, labor standards, and information system security. An on-site visit is scheduled prior to quote submission to allow measurement and assessment of installation areas. Award selection will be based on a best-value analysis emphasizing price and past performance, with no discussions to be held post-submission. Invoices must be submitted electronically through the VA’s Tungsten Network system. Interested vendors must submit complete quotations, certifications, and capability statements by the specified deadline, affirming acceptance or exceptions to the contract terms and conditions.
