The Commonwealth of Kentucky, through the Finance and Administration Cabinet and the Commonwealth Office of Technology, is soliciting proposals for a security and surveillance rebid under RFP 758 2700000043. The contract seeks vendors to provide comprehensive hardware, software, systems, and professional services, including video surveillance, physical access controls, and intrusion detection. The scope encompasses installation, configuration, integration, and maintenance, with a requirement for all provided hardware to be new and systems to maintain a minimum uptime of 99 percent. The award may be granted to up to two contracts for an initial one-year term, with options for six additional one-year renewals. Proposals must be submitted in three distinct parts: Technical, Cost, and Proprietary, with a strict prohibition against including pricing within the technical volume. Evaluation is based on technical factors such as training, customer support, and risk management, alongside a cost proposal consisting of not-to-exceed labor rates, manufacturer discount matrices, and mock project scenarios. Vendors must certify compliance with mandatory requirements, Kentucky building codes, and federal accessibility standards, including Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and Section 255 of the Federal Telecommunications Act. Key operational requirements include maintaining all Commonwealth data within the contiguous United States, encrypting sensitive data at rest and in transit, and adhering to a 72-hour security breach notification window. Vendors are responsible for all permitting and final inspections, and must ensure the complete removal of all packaging and waste from sites upon project completion.
