On-Premise AV Server and Storage System Integration

The contract requires the design, configuration, and deployment of an on-premise server and storage system to handle audiovisual data from twelve cameras, four microphones, and mobile carts distributed across four simulation bays. The system must support continuous live streaming capabilities while ensuring secure and reliable storage with a minimum thirty-day retention period for all recorded content. The infrastructure must be robust enough to handle high-bandwidth video and audio inputs simultaneously without degradation in quality or performance, and must be tailored to the specific technical demands of a simulation-based environment. This is a subcontract under NAICS code 518210, issued by the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities System, with a response deadline of June 1, 2026. The work is to be performed on-site at locations managed by the agency, though exact geographic details are not specified. The system must be fully operational upon deployment, with all components integrated and tested to meet performance and reliability standards. Bidders must demonstrate technical expertise in enterprise-level AV data handling, local storage architecture, and real-time streaming solutions, and the contract does not indicate any set-aside provisions for small or disadvantaged businesses.
