Public Address System Replacement Solution

The Camden City School District in Camden, New Jersey is seeking a vendor to replace the existing, outdated, and malfunctioning public address and intercom systems at Veterans School and another school. The agency requires a modern, reliable, IP-based communication solution to provide paging, intercom, emergency notification, and system integration capabilities. The project covers coordinating with district IT for network integration to implement a system featuring unlimited station capacity, user-customizable announcements with priority, text-to-speech announcements, and audio distribution scheduled or manually activated via administrative interfaces. The requested system must support integrated internet radio, email notifications triggered by system events, clock and messaging displays, and unlimited time, paging, and audio zones. The agency requires a solution capable of recording and activating announcements via speed dial, DTMF, wireless panic buttons, mobile apps, web browsers, or external IP networked systems using HTTPS URL-based APIs. Additionally, the system must enable authorized users to make district-wide pages through multi-facility emergency all-call and multi-site all-call capabilities. Eligibility is limited to onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency expects the performance of the work to be conducted offsite. Bidders must submit proposals digitally via email or online, and the contract period will run for one year. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget for this project. The pre-bid meeting is scheduled for June 12, 2026. Bidders must submit all questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 15, 2026.
