RFI Scope: 

FCC currently manages a National contract for all intrusion, fire monitoring and office security monitoring requirements throughout our offices across Canada. To help develop the scope for a subsequent Request for Proposals, we are interested in identifying potential providers’ capabilities to deliver consistent alarm monitoring and security alarm response services. These services are required in both official languages to all relevant FCC locations across Canada.
