License Plate Reader System

Amendment 2 The purpose of this amendment is to extend the response date to June 22 due to issues with the SAM.gov website. Interested parties are reminded that registration with the System for Award Management (SAM) is required. In order to be considered for award, pursuant to applicable regulations and guidelines. Registration information can be found at www.sam.gov. Registration must be "ACTIVE" at the time of award. Amendment 1 The purpose of this amendment is to provide additional details in response to questions from interested contractors. The response date is extended to June 20. Q1 What type of solar power is at the North Entrance? A1 We have solar panels on a 20 foot tall pole just west of the North Entrance Station. The solar panels charge a bank of batteries contained in a small shed just west of the entrance station. Electricity flows from the batteries at 12V to two entrance station buildings where an inverter bumps it up to 110-120v. Q2 How much power is put out by the solar panels? A2 The solar system provides 1000 watts. Q3 Is the solar power backing up an existing 120 VAC power? A3 No, the north entrance station is 100% solar powered. Q4 What are the intentions for the data that is captured by the LPR, e.g. data logging or active checks against a specific database? If a specific database, what database must the LPR interact with? A4 The best case scenario is for live data to be available in the office setting (via Verizon cell modem) where the data could be actively linked to a database or at least available for monitoring during an incident. Whether the LPR system is mostly based at the remote entrance stations or the LPR system is based in the office will be something the vendor can put in the bid package. The main limitation at the North Entrance is the 4G Verizon modem and data usage caps. The Annie Creek Entrance Station internet is now provided by a HughesNet satellite system and may also be subject to data usage caps. We do not know which LE database would be used with the LPR system or if the end user here is interested in real-time interaction with a database. Q5 Does the system need to be on a specific Government network? A5 No. The south entrance station is on HughesNet satellite, the North Entrance is on Verizon, and we have CenturyLink DSL available in the offices. None of those systems at attached to any government network. Q6 Will the data be analyzed locally, or is this tying back to a central server?A6 The data could be processed/analyzed locally at the entrance station or back at an office. The main limitation at the North Entrance is the 4G Verizon modem and data usage caps. The Annie Creek Entrance Station internet is now provided by a HughesNet satellite system and may also be subject to data usage caps. The extent that sending images to the office for processing/analysis eats up the data usage caps would be one of the criteria that the purchaser would consider when evaluating the technical merits of a bid package. We do not have a real preference for local or office other than what is stated above.
