Description
The Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) is soliciting proposals to replace and modernize the door control and monitoring system at the Estelle Unit Expansion Cell Block (ECB) in Huntsville, TX. The new system must integrate with an existing IP‑camera network and a newly‑designed, open‑architecture reporting software platform. The scope includes removal of legacy hardware, installation of new access‑control panels, door operators, wiring, and associated software configuration, testing, and training for TDCJ staff. The contract value is approximately $6.5 million, and all proposals must be submitted electronically through the TDCJ procurement portal by the deadline.
• Replace existing door control hardware with IP‑enabled access‑control devices.
• Integrate door controllers with TDCJ’s IP‑camera surveillance system.
• Implement open‑design reporting software for real‑time monitoring and audit logs.
• Provide full system testing, documentation, and on‑site training for prison personnel.
• Ensure compliance with Texas state security certifications (CTCD/CTCM).
