The Rhode Island Department of Administration, Division of Purchases, is soliciting qualified firms for an Open Enrollment Master Price Agreement (MPA 419) to provide maintenance, repair, upgrade, and replacement services for security systems across all state agencies.

Awarded vendors must adhere to strict insurance requirements, including a $1,000,000 combined single limit for liability and automobile insurance, and $500,000 for crime coverage.
