N063--Equipment - Albany VAMC Combined Access Control Addition

The Albany Stratton VA Medical Center is soliciting quotes from Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) for a project to upgrade and expand its Physical Access Control System (PACS). This includes purchasing and installing PIV-enabled access control hardware on four specified doors, along with integrating these components into the existing Lenel OnGuard PACS environment. The project involves upgrading the current Lenel OnGuard ADV SUSP license, which is capped at 256 readers, to the PRO license tier to allow for an increase in capacity up to 320 readers. The upgrade is driven by compliance requirements with federal physical security standards and the need to support expanded controlled access across the facility, including alarm monitoring and life-safety functionality. The scope of work requires furnishing all labor, materials, equipment, wiring, programming, and testing necessary to complete the installation, upgrade, and integration within 90 calendar days from the notice of award. Key hardware includes dual-frequency HID SIGNO 40K PIV readers, cylindrical electrified locksets, electric door strikes, panic exit devices, wave-to-open ADA push buttons, access control cabinets, power supplies, and necessary cabling and conduit components. Installation will occur at four designated doors within the facility, including a fire-rated door and both metal and wood doors, each with specific technical requirements. The government will provide access to existing controllers, cabling pathways, power, and network connectivity. Quotes will be evaluated based on price, past performance, technical merit, warranty, product support, and delivery speed, with submissions required by the specified deadline and handled under streamlined federal acquisition procedures without issuing a separate written solicitation.
