Description
The Rhode Island Convention Center Authority is seeking a qualified consulting firm to provide technical evaluation and recommendations for its security systems across multiple facilities, including the convention center, Amica Mutual Pavilion, and two large parking garages. The consultant will review existing access‑control, CCTV, radio, and alarm systems, assess integration gaps, and produce written technical reports with recommendations and supporting documentation. All architectural and as‑built security drawings will be supplied after award. The effort is purely advisory—no installation or construction is required—but may involve developing design guidance for future upgrades. The solicitation requires five hard‑copy proposals plus an electronic thumb‑drive copy, with rates held for 24 months and valid through 31 Dec 2026.
• Review and evaluate existing security hardware and software across four venues.
• Identify integration issues and recommend upgrades or redesigns.
• Deliver written technical evaluation, recommendations, and supporting diagrams.
• Provide staff clearance (background checks) as needed for secure area access.
• Submit five printed proposals and one electronic thumb‑drive copy by the RFP‑specified deadline.
