REQUEST FOR STANDING OFFERS (RFSO)

TITLE: IN-CAR DIGITAL VIDEO SYSTEM (ICDVS)

Canada has a requirement to establish a National Master Standing Offer (NMSO) for the supply of in-car digital video system (ICDVS) to Authorized Users.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and other Authorized Users have a requirement for the provision of in-car digital video system (ICDVS) to capture audio and video of activities inside and in front of police vehicles in which they are installed. The ICDVS footage is to provide evidence of interaction of members with stopped vehicles and occupants as well as with prisoners who occupy the back seat of the police vehicle.

The ICDVS is used to gather evidence for criminal and provincial prosecutions and to meet Canada's security and defense commitments. The ICDVS is required for front line policing operations, special operations and peacekeeping. The ICDVS will be required progressively in various RCMP vehicles and deployed across Canada. The RCMP's audio and video policy states that it is mandatory to retain all recorded data for a minimum of two years subsequent to its original capture. ICDVS consists, as a minimum, of a recording device linked to two cameras and two microphones. ICDVS audio/video footage is exported from the unit physically to a removable solid state storage media or wirelessly to an Active Storage or Archival Storage system. The removable solid state storage media is handled as a data transfer component from which all captured data is transferred to an Active Storage or Archival Storage system. All data transferred to the Active Storage or Archival Storage system is to be considered recorded information and will remain within the storage system for a two-year period after which it will auto purge. Any data pertaining to an investigation uploaded to the Active Storage or Archival Storage system will be isolated by the investigator from the Active Storage system or Archival Storage system as soon as practicable and saved to a data storage device (i.e. thumb drive) that will become the Digital Multimedia Evidence and marked as the "original".

The intent is to award one NMSO to one Offeror for three (3) years commencing upon NMSO award date with an irrevocable option on the part of Canada to extend the period by up to two (2) one (1) year periods.

Goods and Services will be provided to the RCMP and other Authorized Users locations across Canada.

The scope of work includes the supply and provision of operational and technical training on the ICDVS as described in the Statement of Work (SOW). Refer to Annex A.
