Description of Work:

Treasury Board has mandated that all departments must implement and maintain a physical control access system. The Chief Security Officer (CSO) is responsible to ensure that all majority tenant buildings have an effective Integrated Security System (ISS) capable of controlling and accounting for all individuals entering department premises for official business. The ISS is mostly accomplished by both an electronic Access Control System (ACS) and a Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV), intrusion detection alarm and the use of security guards.

Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) / Service Canada (SC) is embarking on a program to upgrade, renew and enhance its aging ISS infrastructure, which has been deployed across Canada.

Some installations (ISS) have been in use for many years and are in need of replacement and some systems are newer but do not follow a standard and cannot be integrated with other systems. The objective of a National Integrated Security System (NISS) project is to provide a standardized, remotely accessible, state of the art, secure and solution for use Canada-wide. The objectives would be to have one NISS, across Canada, across regions, on the same platform, same database.
