Virtual Security Gatehouse Management Services

The government authority located in Manatee, Florida is seeking virtual security gatehouse management services to improve the efficiency of vehicle entry and data collection. The system must operate during both manned gatehouse hours and specified virtual attendant hours. Because the roadways within the Country Club are open to the public, the system cannot deny access to visitors, but it must collect data related to their entry. The scope of work requires the virtual gatehouse system to utilize a VPN to facilitate TCP/IP communication between all gate locations and the KERI Doors.NET database application server. The selected provider must process first-time visitors, returning vendors, and individuals with resident-approved entry credentials. Additionally, the system must process visitors, vendors, and Country Club employees using vehicle tag recognition and QR codes, as well as handle non-credentialed service vehicles, delivery providers, and transportation services. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States. The selected provider must perform all work offsite from their own office location. The agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget for this project. The agency will hold a mandatory pre-proposal meeting on June 3, 2026. Bidders must submit all questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 4, 2026.
