Requests for Information (RFIs):
Q1: Regarding the Video bid - We see Sony cameras w/licenses listed, but no Video Management System (VMS) listed. Are the licenses for an existing VMS? If yes, which manufacturer?

The DELL server specifications are stated within the project manual, Section 282300, Article 2.3.C.1.
Q3: Is switching equipment being provided by the awarded bidder or others? A3: Network switches are provided by other and not part of this project. All Voice QOS and security IP addressing information must be relayed by the Contractor awarded this project to the client in a cohesive manner so that the network switches can be configured by others.
Q4: Can you state what the start date is for the project? A4: The Town hopes to award the contract the week of March 16 and the Contractor can start as soon as the contract is signed and submittals are approved.

Q12: We have noticed in the bid it states the bidder must be DAS Pre-qualified and also be a certified reseller of both IPVideo Corp and Alcatel-Lucent. Can you please explain this, as we do not feel there will be any companies which hold all three certifications. A12: The DAS prequalification applies to the prime bidding contractor. The certified reseller can be a subcontractor to the prime bidder and not hold DAS prequalification. However if the subcontractor’s bid is at or above the $500,000 threshold, the subcontractor must also be DAS prequalified.
Q13: Can you please publish a list of the all potential bidders who have picked up the plans? A13: You must contact the Town of Manchester for the list of plan holders.
