RFI 92-27-003 Market Research for Security Cameras

Craven Community College issued Request for Information RFI-92-27-003 on October 1, 2026, to conduct market research for a comprehensive security camera and video surveillance system replacement. The project encompasses four locations: the New Bern Campus, Havelock Campus, Volt Center, and the Public Safety Training Center. The college is seeking information on high-definition cameras, cloud-based platforms, and advanced AI capabilities such as analytics and license plate recognition, as well as options for 10-year warranties and licensing. This RFI is strictly for planning and pricing purposes and does not constitute a formal solicitation or a request for offer, meaning no award will result directly from this process. Interested vendors must submit a PDF response by October 29, 2026, to Carlton Banks. Submissions should include company experience, system capabilities, installation methodologies, a delivery timeline, and a non-binding Rough Order of Magnitude cost estimate. Proposed solutions must adhere to ADA requirements and safety standards, while incorporating robust cybersecurity measures including full data encryption, authentication, user access controls, logging, and system updates.
