IT and Security Infrastructure Upgrade Services

The Vendor is required to provide a comprehensive technology infrastructure upgrade across six campus buildings.
- Includes upgrading structured cabling, modernizing the existing camera system, implementing a new access control system, and installing a public address (PA) system to enhance communication and security across the campus.
- Services include:
•    As part of the structured cabling upgrade, all existing Category 5 cabling will be removed and replaced with Category 6A cabling to support current and future high-speed network demands. 
•    This includes terminating and labelling all cable drops in accordance with industry standards, as well as testing and certifying each connection. 
•    A critical component of this upgrade is the cleanup and reorganization of networking closets in each of the six buildings. 
•    This will involve the removal of outdated equipment and cabling, the installation of modern patch panels and cable management systems, and proper documentation for ongoing maintenance. 
•    The camera system upgrade will replace the current analog surveillance infrastructure with a state-of-the-art IP-based solution. 
•    New IP cameras will be installed to provide full coverage of building entrances, hallways, parking lots, exterior perimeters, and other key areas. 
•    These cameras will be integrated into a centralized video management system, allowing for improved monitoring, recording, and retrieval of footage.
•    The system will be configured and tested thoroughly, with appropriate training provided to campus security staff. 
•    To further enhance campus security, a modern access control system will be installed. 
•    This system will include electronic access points on all exterior doors across the six buildings, as well as internal office spaces within the office and department.
•    The access control solution will consist of badge readers, control panels, and electronic locking mechanisms integrated with the existing or new security infrastructure. 
•    Staff will receive training on credential management and system use.
•    Additionally, a new public address (PA) system will be installed to provide effective communication throughout the campus.
•    The PA system will include speakers and amplifiers installed indoors—covering classrooms, hallways, and common areas— and outdoors in the courtyard and parking areas. 
•    This system will feature centralized control with zoning capabilities for targeted or building-wide announcements. 
•    System testing and training will be conducted to ensure proper use by designated personnel.
