PACS and VASS Hardware and Software Maintenance Support Services

The Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, managed by Princeton University for the U.S. Department of Energy, is seeking information from qualified, factory-certified security systems integrators to support the ongoing maintenance of its integrated electronic security infrastructure. This request targets comprehensive hardware and software maintenance services for a range of critical systems including RS2 AccessIT and HID PIV Class access control platforms, Avigilon and Easy Lobby visitor management systems, card readers, request-to-exit components, door monitoring controllers, video recording servers, cameras and enclosures, access control servers and databases, and associated workstations and software integrations. The goal is to assess industry capabilities, response times, and service delivery models to ensure reliable, uninterrupted operation of these security systems across the PPPL facility in Princeton, New Jersey.

Respondents are required to submit information by the deadline of May 20, 2026, to provide insights into their capacity to deliver timely and effective maintenance support. The primary point of contact for inquiries is Marissa Zara at mzara@pppl.gov, and all responses must be directed through the SAM.gov platform. This initiative is part of PPPL’s broader effort to uphold the integrity and performance of its physical security infrastructure, which is essential for safeguarding sensitive research operations and personnel at the national laboratory site.
