Request for Proposals for Upgrades to Video Security Systems - Homer Airport & Public Library

Request for Proposals
By the City of Homer, Alaska
Upgrades to Video Security Systems
at the Homer Public Library and the Homer Airport

Addendum 1 Issued 12/15/20

The City of Homer is requesting proposals from qualified video security system firms to design, provide equipment and install upgrades to the video security systems at the Homer Airport and Public Library facilities. The design and equipment must be capable of monitoring all entrances and exits to the buildings as well as specific areas inside the structures and in the parking areas outdoors.

In 2007 the City of Homer installed video security systems at the Homer Public Library and the Homer Airport. These systems are now approaching the end of their service life. The City seeks replacement systems which will provide coverage of the same areas, but at higher resolution. Detailed floor plans, marked with coverage requirements, are available to qualified bidders after remitting the required Plan Holders Registration Form.

A Virtual Site visit is planned for December 8, 2020 at 1:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. via Zoom. Timing will allow for travel time between the two facilities. Invitations with meeting information will be sent to all qualified entities listed on the Plan Holder’s List.

Proposals will be received at the City Clerk’s Office, City of Homer, 491 E. Pioneer Avenue, Homer, Alaska until Wednesday, December 30, 2020 at 4:00 p.m.  Proposals received after the time fixed for the receipt of the bids shall not be considered.  All proposers must submit a City of Homer Plan Holders Registration form to be on the Plan Holders List to be considered responsive.

An electronic copy of the RFP Requirements and plan holder registration forms are available online at http://www.cityofhomer-ak.gov/rfps.  Paper copies of the Proposal Documents may be purchased at the Office of the City Clerk upon payment of $10 per set ($15 for priority mail delivery).  All fees are non-refundable.
