NOAA recently released REQUIREMENTS-26-3295 which is separate and distinct from this RFI. This RFI is for the Integrator and related support services for the Enterprise system. REQUIREMENTS-26-3295 is for nationwide preventative Maintenance, Repair, Installation, and related work. Purpose This Performance Work Statement outlines the requirements for system administration, engineering, architecture, software licensing, hardware procurement, and installation services required by the NOAA/OCIO/Service Delivery Division�s (SDD) Critical Infrastructure Management Services (CIMS) program for NOAA�s Enterprise Physical Access Control System (ePACS) and Enterprise Video Surveillance System (eVSS). Background The NOAA Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO), through its Service Delivery Division (SDD) and Critical Infrastructure Management Services (CIMS) program, is responsible for the secure operation and maintenance of NOAA�s Enterprise Physical Access Control System (ePACS) and Enterprise Video Surveillance System (eVSS). These systems are deployed across multiple NOAA facilities nationwide and support mission-critical physical security functions. To maintain operational integrity, ensure 24/7/365 system availability, and meet strict federal physical security and IT compliance mandates (such as HSPD-12, FIPS 201-3, and FICAM), NOAA requires dedicated vendor support for enterprise-level system architecture, daily administration, software/license management, hardware acquisition, and system expansion services. Objectives The objectives of this Performance Work Statement (PWS) are to: Ensure continuous (24/7/365) operational readiness, maximum uptime, and peak reliability across all NOAA ePACS and eVSS infrastructure. Provide robust system administration, database engineering (SQL/Oracle/Active Directory), and cross-system integration (PACS, VSS, IDS, Visitor Management). Maintain strict alignment with GSA Approved Products List (APL) standards, Trade Agreements Act (TAA) guidelines, HSPD-12, FIPS 201-3, and NOAA/DOC cybersecur…
