Questions
1. When was the approximate date of the installation of the American Dynamics Victor and VideoEdge system (Requirements, page 5, paragraph #1)?
The initial install was in 2018. There are original NVRs mixed in with newer models as some NVR s have failed.
2. What is the current version of the software for the American Dynamics Victor and VideoEdge system (Requirements, page 5, paragraph #1)?
Version 5.6 (20.1.2109.2109)
3. Are there any known issues with the American Dynamics Victor and VideoEdge systems at any of the sites (Requirements, page 5, paragraph #1 and Project Requirements, lines #1, #2, and #3)? We are having network delivery issues.
Many times, a camera has a movie reel icon. We are in the process of putting the cameras on their separate network.
4. Is there currently an active support contract for the American Dynamics Victor and VideoEdge system at any and/or all of the sites referenced (Requirements, page 5, paragraph #1 and Project Requirements, lines #1, #2, and #3)?

5. Have you paid for a similar evaluation for the American Dynamics Victor and VideoEdge system in the past (Requirements, page 5, paragraph #1)? If so, how much was charged?
No
6. If selected, would we be able to take photos of the site, grounds, cameras (position and views), and potential blind spots so that they may be added to the report (Requirements, page 5, paragraph #1 and Project Requirements, lines #1, #2, and #3)? Especially if the contractor is willing to sign an NDA and a non-distribution agreement.
No issues with taking picture as long as no veterans/staff are in the pictures.
7. Could the agency be considered if they can provide proof of being able to collaborate with certified American Dynamics Victor and VideoEdge support specialists to validate the need of this requirement (Project requirements, page 5, line 6)?
We require the evaluation to be completed by an entity that is certified in American Dynamics/ Victor to ensure the proper steps are taken to correct issues.
8. Can my past performance as a federal civilian (6 years GS-11 equivalent - Chief of Security Operations - USAF) be considered to satisfy the request of Project requirements, page 5, line 5 and Factor 1 Past Performance (page 30).
