Q&A
RFP-011
Q: I didn’t see anywhere on the RFP that says that you want an extended warranty. Are you interested in a 3yr warranty? With or without ADP?

A: For chromebooks it can be a line item as optional for ADP. Optional purchase please.

 

 
RFP-012
 
“NVR 30TB storage minimum (Wisenet/Axis or equivalent)

Q: Just want to make sure it’s apples to apples, so could you clarify on the storage requirements?

A: we are looking for a minimum 45 day retention period. 

 

Q: You requested Boring or Aerial fiber for those schools that needed fiber, will a Wireless Bridge solution be acceptable ?
A: No bridge at this time
 
Q: On Page 2 of the RFP it states "network riser cable", does that mean you are requesting CMR CAT6 Blue cabling for this installation ? Normally CMP CAT6 Blue is used for school campuses.
A:Yes CMR is acceptable
 
Q: On Page 2 of the RPF it states the standard of 568A for all cabling, is your school district currently using only 568A ?
A: Use 568B please
 
Q: On Page 3 of the RFP you stated you want 110 termination, would modular patch panels and keystones be acceptable ?
A: Yes acceptable
 
Q:Is the fiber you are requesting OM4 or other ?
A: OM3 and up
 
Q:Does the fiber need to be armored ?
A: Yes
 
Q:We noticed you are requesting LPR cameras, the documents handed at the walkthrough do not have the LPR camera placement (blue dots), can you describe where these cameras will be ? If they will be at Guard Shacks, is there connectivity to the guard shacks? If not, will a wireless bridge be acceptable to the shacks?  
A: Guard Shacks are not part of the scope of this project. The cameras will be pointing in the direction of the shack.  
 
Q:We notice there is Monet Elementary on the RFP but there was not a walkthrough done at Monet? Do you have documentation for Monet ?
A:Yes we can send via email.
 
Q:What is your current Video Managment System ? Name and Version.
A: Wisenet VMS
 
Q: Will these cameras be integrated into that system or separate ? or will existing cameras be integrated into this new system?
A: Integrated if wisenet/Axis. We are also accepting proposals of separate VMS if Axis or Meraki or equivalent.
