Monroe Public Schools is seeking proposals for the installation of a comprehensive fire and intrusion alarm system across multiple school facilities, including Monroe Middle School, Riverside Early Learning Center, Fennoor Operations Building, and the Administration Warehouse. The solicitation, numbered RFP-MON-260000002033-1 and posted on May 15, 2026, requires physical bid submissions to be delivered in two sealed copies by 1:00 p.m. on May 26, 2026, to the Administration Building in Monroe, Michigan. Proposals must include a completed bid form and a signed affidavit affirming no familial relationships exist between vendor personnel and school board members, along with certification under Michigan’s Iran Economic Sanctions Act, which carries penalties of up to $250,000 and a three-year debarment for false declarations. Technical specifications mandate use of the DMP XR150 Network system or equivalent, integration with VI Monitor and MonitorCast platforms, compatibility with multiple sensor types including motion, door, roof, and temperature sensors, and installation of panels in IDF/MDF closets with a 12-hour backup battery. All cabling must be plenum-grade, follow district color-coding standards, be suspended via J-hooks, and terminate in ICC-compliant CAT6 keystones. The system must be monitorable by any national monitoring service and use a DualSIM Cellular DMP 263 LTE communicator. Contractors are required to comply with prevailing wage laws, submit certified payroll through the state’s online system, register the project under MCL 408.1102, and indemnify the district for noncompliance. Installation must avoid disruption to school operations, with final acceptance required by August 31, 2026. The award will be based on best overall value, with evaluation factors weighted as follows: cost (40%), features and integration (30%), vendor capability (10%), site visit and design (10%), and implementation timeline (10%). No contract value is specified due to unpopulated pricing fields in Section B, and no UEI, CAGE, small business, or socioeconomic status certifications are required. The district will not accept electronic submissions, and no electronic invoicing systems like WAWF are referenced, with payment and accounting details also unspecified.
