1.0 INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this Request for Competitive Sealed Proposal (RFCSP) is to acquire a 60 month turnkey Surveillance Camera System for the City of Dallas (the City) which meets or exceeds all requirements of this document. Currently, the City operates cameras within various Dallas downtown areas with live video streaming. The video management software currently being utilized is OnSSI. Due to the deterrent and evidentiary effectiveness of the surveillance cameras, the Dallas Police Department (DPD) is seeking to implement approximately 300 surveillance cameras located throughout 27 areas in the City, specifically in high crime areas, transmitting wireless video feeds 24hrs a day/365 days a year. This system shall have a mix of cameras installed as semi-permanent installations at fixed locations as well as cameras that have the ability to be moved quickly to various locations, as dictated by criminal activity or any other surveillance efforts. For those units that are determined as mobile cameras, due to the need for flexibility and ability for quick relocations, the mobile cameras will be required to utilize the most flexible wireless technology (cellular). The Department wishes to utilize the most efficient cameras and wireless technologies to fulfill its requirements for the new surveillance system. The Department has been satisfied with the OnSSI software currently used for video gathering, monitoring, and management and wishes to use that same technology for this operational need to minimize or eliminate the learning time for the monitoring teams and to not increase the number of systems supported within the City. In addition, in order to streamline and increase video analysis efforts, the Department wishes to implement a video synopsis (VS) solution that is compatible with OnSSI, which would allow users to view and analyze hours of video that is condensed into significantly shorter timeframes. The goals of the project are: Improve DPDs crime fighting efforts by implementing a state of the art wireless technology Surveillance System. Implement approximately 300 cameras (overt/covert) in the Citys top 27 TAAG areas. Allow DPD the flexibility to install surveillance cameras throughout the City of Dallas, without any geographic/network constraints. Stream, as near real time as possible, video feeds to various locations such as Dallas City Hall, Jack Evans, Substations, police vehicles, and/or laptops. Implement data management architecture/strategy for the storage of video feeds for up to fourteen (14) days, for historical investigative and/or evidentiary purposes. Improve system performance by selecting a vendor to provide ongoing support and maintenance. Streamlined process for relocation of cameras, as dictated by DPDs surveillance needs. Leverage DPDs satisfaction with OnSSI and implement system that continues to use OnSSI Video Management Software Improve DPDs video monitoring efforts by implementing new Video Synopsis software. The new Surveillance Camera System should meet at a minimum, all of the required specifications outlined in this document. The successful Proposer should provide added value and/or functionality above and beyond the minimum requirements.
