Emergency Management Mass Notification System

The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking an emergency management mass notification system to integrate with its existing emergency communication environment. The agency needs to improve message distribution efficiency, support multiple alerting pathways, and ensure full interoperability with existing radio systems, IP network components, VoIP systems, desktop alerting platforms, and other emergency communication tools in use across the facility. This project aims to solve the challenge of fragmented emergency communications by creating a unified, reliable alerting network. The scope of work covers system design and configuration, integration with the existing campus emergency notification architecture, and the installation of indoor and outdoor components. The selected contractor must provide all cabling, power, conduits, and hardware needed for system activation, as well as testing and validation of all alerting pathways. The agency also requires training for administrators and end-users to ensure proper system operation. Eligibility for this opportunity is strictly set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. Only onshore organizations based in the United States may participate in this procurement. While the physical installation occurs at the facility, the agency indicates that performance of the work will be offsite. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget and has not disclosed a pre-determined funding limit. Evaluation criteria and key dates are not specified in the initial solicitation details. Bidders must demonstrate how their proposed systems meet all integration and interoperability requirements to be considered for award.
