This RFB is designed to provide Bidders with the information necessary for the preparation of competitive Bids. The RFB process is for the Lead Agency’s and Participating Agencies’ benefit and is intended to provide the Lead Agency with competitive information to assist in the selection process. It is not intended to be comprehensive. Each Bidder is responsible for determining all factors necessary for submission of a comprehensive Bid. The State of Iowa is seeking qualified bidders to provide access control products, services, installation, and ongoing support for access control, security, and camera systems at State owned and leased locations throughout Iowa. The systems shall provide centralized control, monitoring, data collection, and optimization of access control, security, and camera systems. The resulting contract(s) is an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for access control goods and services. The Bidder shall furnish labor, materials, equipment, supervision, testing, and incidentals for task orders issued under this Agreement. Individual task orders will define specific work locations, drawings (if any), quantities, schedules, and deliverables. The parties understand and agree that for any portion of the goods or services constituting a “public improvement” as defined in Iowa Code section 26.2, the Purchasing Entity may only engage Contractor under this Contract for purchases at or below the competitive bid threshold established in Iowa Code section 314.1B. All purchases under this Contract related to a “public improvement” must comply with Iowa Code chapters 26 and 573, as applicable. Any project exceeding this threshold, including all new system installations or full replacements, must be awarded through a separate competitive selection process. All design work will be performed by the Design and Construction Resources Bureau or a third party, as the State does not permit a design-build approach. Contracts will be awarded to the responsible bidders offering the best discount for each brand-name line item; bidders may submit bids for one or multiple brands.
