Scope
The County intends to contract with a full-service contractor with proven experience in fire alarm system design, installation, restoration, repair, testing, and maintenance for commercial and government facilities, including high-security environments. The contractor must be capable of servicing systems regardless of manufacturer, model, or age.

The awarded contractor must employ licensed and certified fire alarm technicians as part of its fulltime staff and maintain an in-house inventory of replacement parts, with service vehicles stocked with commonly used components. A 24-hour emergency dispatch service with guaranteed prompt response is required throughout the contract term.

The contractor must have the technical and human resources to respond promptly to service requests and complete all work within the specified project timelines. All labor, equipment, supervision, and materials must be provided in compliance with federal, state, and local laws, as well as applicable environmental and safety regulations, while minimizing disruption to County property.

This Request for Proposal (RFP) is for the replacement of the fire alarm system at the Strathmore Music Center. The project scope includes the development and submission of design drawings in both AutoCAD and PDF formats to the Montgomery County Division of Facilities Management (DFM) and the Department of Permitting Services (DPS). The selected contractor will be responsible for obtaining all necessary permits and inspections, and for completing a full replacement of the existing
fire alarm system with a non-proprietary, addressable, state-of-the-art model.
