SPECIFICATIONS/SCOPE OF WORK The City of Miami ("City"), on behalf of its various departments, is seeking a vendor to provide self - storage facilities located within City limits. City personnel must have access to the facilities Monday through Friday, form 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM at a minimum, preferably seven (7) days a week and 24 hours a day. Structural There are strict structural requirements for the requested facility. Failure to meet the requirements shall deem the bid non- responsive. The City reserves the right to visit and or / inspect the Bidder's facility before recommendation of award to determine responsiveness to the requirements. The facility shall: • Be an individual structure, separated from other buildings and external hazards to ensure a high degree of safety from fire, flood and other potential natural disasters, including hurricane force winds. • Be located above the local flood plain and constructed of concrete, masonry, or steel that meet all national fire code prevention standards. • Be clean, well -organized and free of rodents and pest infestation. • Have no windows in any stack areas. • Be climate controlled to protect the stored records and equipment from damage and deterioration. • Meet all requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). • All firewalls must be structurally sound and capable of withstanding impact and imposed loads if severe fire exposure would cause collapse of the framing on one wall.

The alarm system must be UL certified and monitored twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days a week. Security The Successful Bidder(s) is required to meet security requirements to ensure that the property (equipment, files, etc.) can be safeguarded since storage facilities tend to be prospective targets for would be thieves. The City's Police Department ("Police") operates a Real Time Crime Center ("RTCC") as a crime fighting tool in our community. The RTCC has personnel that oversee a network of Closed -Circuit Television ("CCTV") camaras consisting of publicly and privately owned equipment that has helped expand the network throughout the City. Successful Bidder shall: a. Have a modern, digital CCTV network to provide adequate coverage of their facilities; b. Have specific coverage of areas utilized to store City assets, to review the coverage areas Successful Bidder(s) shall provide conduct a security survey where the City will advise if the coverage suits the required needs; c. Have CCTV systems with the minimum capability to hold recordings for up to 30 days; d. Have and/or purchase, install and subscribe to Fusus by Axon App and Fusus Core hardware in order to integrate the connection to the RTCC within 60 days of the commencement of the contract; e. Maintain the annual subscription of the Fusus App for the entire term of the contract; and f. Provide a point of contact to the City's Project Manager at RTCC to facilitate site equipment maintenance. Once integrated the Successful Bidder(s) will benefit from being able to offer clients an improved security measure that is monitored by local law enforcement. While feeds may not be monitored continuously, RTCC personnel will have access to review footage if an incident occurs and capture valuable evidence to quickly resolve a criminal act. The self -storage facility or affected client would report a crime to law enforcement and an investigator will then follow up to recover video footage from the RTCC. FUSUS by Axon Fusus by Axon ("Fusus") is an app and web -based software that uses a piece of hardware called a Core. Fusus connects to the Network Video Recorder ("NVR") of a location and grants camera access to Police. Fusus is user friendly, easy to install and can be operational within minutes. The host location can: • choose how many cameras to share access to; • which cameras to share access to; and • select if it wants to share live views or historical data. There is a nominal fee associated with the purchase of the Core. The cost depends on the size of the camera network and how many cameras will be integrated with RTCC. Additionally, there is an annual fee that is paid directly to Fusus to maintain the integrated camera feeds. While there are other methods of integrating CCTV feeds, using the Fusus app is the most efficient, cost effective and preferred for the City as it has already been implemented for the RTCC. Example Cost: A Core Lite Bundle which can incorporate up to four (4) cameras and offers 512 GB of storage costs $350 for the hardware with an annual subscription fee of $150. On the higher end of the FUSUS Cores is the Core Elite Al Bundle which can incorporate up to 200 cameras with 44 TB of storage. The cost of this hardware would be $7300 with an annual subscription of $2300. There are other Cores available ranging in prices between the two illustrated which would depend on the number of cameras being shared with Police's RTCC.
