The U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management, is seeking a contractor to design and install a comprehensive security camera system for the new Sloan Canyon National Conservation Area Visitor Contact Station in southern Nevada. This firm, fixed-price contract requires a new Avigilon network security system to safeguard personnel, federal property, and critical infrastructure. The system must provide continuous monitoring, real-time recording saved for 30 days, and complete coverage of interior and exterior spaces, including three doors, the amphitheater, art wall, and parking lot. The contractor must provide all equipment, labor, and training for BLM staff and law enforcement. The system needs to meet federal security standards, offer a minimum 4 MP resolution, 25x optical zoom, 360° continuous pan, integrated IR and white light illumination, and onboard storage. A site visit is recommended but not mandatory. The project timeline includes a kick-off meeting, plan approval within 15 business days, installation within 45 calendar days, and a 3-year warranty.

The Sloan Canyon NCA Camera Security System project, under Solicitation 140L3926Q0017, outlines requirements for installing a new Avigilon Network Security System. The project mandates the use of Avigilon products for consistency and cost-effective support. Key constraints include prohibiting exposed conduits, requiring contractors to determine the need for X-ray scanning before coring through concrete walls with rebar, and specifying that fire caulking is not required. The installation window is 45 days after BLM approves the customized plan. While some work may coincide with the current general contractor, security camera installation is best scheduled for late summer or early fall. Solar power is not an option for cameras due to the need for 24/7 uptime. The contractor must provide PoE+ switches and an Avigilon NVR for motion-based recording (30 days) and supply Avigilon Control Center (ACC) software at the 'Standard' tier. PTZ cameras are only for specific scenarios or staffed locations, with dome/bullet cameras acceptable elsewhere. The due date for quotes is May 13, 2026.

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is seeking a sole source justification and approval for the acquisition of an Avigilon network security system for the new Sloan Canyon National Conservation Area Visitor Contact Station in Southern Nevada. This justification is based on the need for brand name compatibility, as Avigilon is the statewide standard for BLM facilities in Nevada. The comprehensive security camera system is essential for safeguarding personnel, federal property, sensitive information, and critical infrastructure, as well as providing crime deterrence. The contractor will be responsible for the design, delivery, assembly, and installation of the camera system. The estimated dollar value is based on current hardware prices of equivalent Avigilon models. The statutory authority for this action is 41 U.S.C. 1901 for simplified acquisition procedures. The rationale for using Avigilon is to ensure complete system integration, cost efficiency, centralized control of CCTV operations from the Nevada State Office, and to avoid incompatibility issues with existing statewide systems. Market research indicates that many CCTV vendors support the Avigilon product line, and competition is still expected despite the brand name specification.
