    The US Army Corps of Engineers is requesting a new security platform aimed at enhancing workplace safety through a comprehensive layered security approach combining people, processes, and technology. Key requirements for the system include the capability to detect concealed weapons without invasive searches and employ AI for threat detection with risk-based alerting. The security setup should facilitate free entry without personal checks, distinguish between real threats to minimize confusion, and enable the security team to concentrate on personnel behavior rather than screens. Post-event summaries and early warning alerts before building entry are also crucial, alongside the ability to integrate with existing 1080p IP cameras. Continuous monitoring via AI, swift alert notifications to multiple locations, and unobtrusive installation in confined spaces are emphasized. Additionally, the system must be scalable for future needs. Overall, this RFP reflects the Corps' commitment to modernizing security measures while ensuring efficient operations and response.
