1. Advance Contract Award Notice (ACAN)
An Advance Contract Award Notice (ACAN) allows department and agencies to post a notice, for no less than fifteen (15) calendar days, indicating to the supplier community that it intends to award a goods, service or construction contract to a pre-identified supplier.
If no other supplier submits, on or before the closing date, a Statement of Capabilities that meets the requirements set out in the ACAN, the contracting authority may then proceed with the award.
However, should a Statement of Capabilities be found to meet the requirements set out in the ACAN, then the contracting officer will proceed to a full tendering process.
2. Definition of the requirement and justification for the pre-identified supplier
Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) is leasing space in TELUS
Plaza North in Edmonton, Alberta and they are seeking to upgrade the existing access control system.
It is essential that the proposed access control system will maintain service, compatibility and support with the Landlord's access control system.
PWGSC took occupancy of space in TELUS Plaza North in 2004.
The fit-up of the space included the purchase and installation of the Summit NT access control system, which is the same system utilized by the landlord at the time. However, PWGSC's Summit system software is nearing the end of its shelf life and, furthermore, the landlord has changed over their Summit access control system to the Gallagher access control system.
At the risk of malfunction and failure, it is imperative that the proposed access control system integrate fully with the landlord's access control system.
Since the Gallagher access control system from the GlobalTech Group is the same system used by the landlord, it is currently the only known access control system that is proven to meet the base building requirement for access control system integration.
3. Criteria for assessment of the statement of capabilities (minimum essential requirements)
The proposed access control system must:
Offer PWGSC the full control of an independent access control system while meeting the base building requirement for access control system integration. Send and receive door and access alarm signals.
Have duress alarm detection capability.
Enable use of existing cards for access to floor space, elevators and building perimeter.
Provide tailored door entry, allowing extended access time to specific cardholders.
The Contractor must:
Provide the Gallagher Security Access Control software. Be certified and qualified for work on the Summit and Gallagher access systems. Supply all labour, material, equipment, licenses as necessary and incidental to the Work. Reuse existing field cable and conduit, electrical door strikes, electrical door hold opens, power supplies for electric locks, door contacts, request to exit motions, HID Prox Pro readers, HID proximity access cards, panic devices. Install new Gallagher software loaded on new PWGSC supplied computer.
Build hardware database. Set up a parallel system for continued operation of the existing Summit system during the transition. Install new access infrastructure, and build new access control network.
Install new access hardware and cut over doors to new system. Ensure that all doors are working with access control at the end of each day. Ensure that all valid existing cards will function through the transition with the exception of the doors being worked on that day. Not work on more than four (4) doors at the same time.
Estimated time to convert each door should be 1-2 hours each. Test connections with the Landlord's building access and alarm system.
Identify and resolve system errors and malfunctions. Provide commissioning and training to PWGSC.
Provide technical and system support as required by PWGSC on an ongoing basis.
