RFP Professional Consultant to Prepare RFP to Obtain Vendor to Provide P25 Standard 911 Radio Network

Harris County, Georgia is seeking a qualified professional consulting firm to develop a comprehensive Request for Proposal (RFP) that will be used to select a vendor to design, build, and operate a Project‑25 (P25) standard 911 radio communications system for the county. The consultant will be responsible for defining system architecture, spectrum planning (700/800 MHz), back‑haul design, site‑selection considerations (only one county‑owned tower), and preparing all solicitation documents, including evaluation criteria and federal work‑authorization attachments. The scope also includes facilitating meetings (on‑site or virtual) with county stakeholders and ensuring the final RFP meets all regulatory requirements. • Prepare a full, stand‑alone P25 911 radio network RFP, including technical specifications, budget guidance, and schedule. • Conduct spectrum analysis and back‑haul design for 700 MHz/800 MHz bands, accounting for limited county‑owned tower infrastructure. • Coordinate with county officials, provide reference requirements, and attach required federal work authorization; budgeted consultant fee is $50,000.
