Description

STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW) for Coast Guard Southwest District Electronic Security Systems (ESS) Modernization 1.0 GENERAL 1.1 BACKGROUND Electronic Security Systems (ESS) at certain United States Coast Guard (USCG) facilities have become obsolete and no longer meet current operational or security standards. These legacy systems, often comprised of outdated CCTV and proximity card readers, require modernization to enhance facility security and ensure alignment with federal directives. 1.2 SCOPE This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the requirement for a Contractor to provide a complete, turn-key solution to modernize the Video Surveillance System (VSS) and Physical Access Control System (PACS) at the following various locations throughout the Coast Guard District Southwest (CGD-SW) Area of Operations (AOR). The CGD-SW AOR encompasses the states of California, Arizona, Nevada, and Utah, with unit locations primarily found in California. The scope of this project includes all tasks necessary to deliver a complete and fully functional system. This includes conducting a site survey, developing an ESS Security Plan, procuring all required materials, professionally decommissioning and removing legacy equipment, and installing, testing, and commissioning the new VSS and PACS in accordance with the approved plan. 1.3 OBJECTIVE The primary objective of this project is to replace legacy security systems with modern, fully compliant VSS and PACS. The new systems must meet all applicable National Security Standards and be designed for future integration into a centralized monitoring architecture. The new PACS must be a complete, end-to-end, FIPS 201-compliant solution, utilizing components listed on the GSA Approved Products List (APL), and be capable of validating PIV credentials from all federal agencies. The final result shall be fully operational, tested, and accepted systems that enhance the security and operational readiness of the facility. 1.4 APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS 1.4.1 Mandatory Compliance Documents The following documents establish mandatory requirements, standards, and specifications for this project: Document Number Title Relevance COMDTINST 5532.1 Physical Access Control USCG policy for PACS implementation. -- 1 of 26 -- STATEMENT OF WORK LAST UPDATED: 20260623 PAGE 2/26 Document Number Title Relevance UFC 4-021-02 Electronic Security Systems DoD design and installation standards for ESS.
