Integrated Monitoring and Access Control Systems

The government authority located in Vancouver, British Columbia, requires integrated monitoring and access control systems to support coordinated operations across its institutional security environments. The agency is trying to solve the challenge of managing campus security by implementing a unified architecture that integrates new hardware and software with existing access control, monitoring, identity, and other security systems. The requested scope of work covers security planning, system design, access control architecture, camera systems, and intrusion detection systems. To deliver these systems, the agency requires access control hardware and software, including readers, card-based, mobile, or biometric credentials, locking hardware, and related components. The selected provider must perform system implementation, which includes installation, configuration, testing, commissioning, and verification of compliance with applicable building and safety codes. Additionally, the scope encompasses monitoring services, video analytics support, system administration, and integration with emergency response processes. The agency mandates that all systems must be designed with appropriate cybersecurity, data protection, and privacy controls. Performance of the work must take place onsite at the Vancouver location. Eligibility is restricted to onshore organizations, meaning only Canadian organizations may participate in this procurement. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget for this project. Bidders must submit their responses digitally, with the agency accepting submissions via email or through an online portal. No specific key dates are provided in the procurement details.
