Q: Do you have maps and drawings for the RCTA and Annex buildings?
A: Click HERE for a pdf version of a drawing with door locations for both offices.
Q: Do you have anything that indicates which doors need access controls.
A: Please click HERE for an updated map of both facilities with door locations. Doors marked in red will need key card access. The 2 doors in main office going from office to garage will need to be secured from both sides.
Q: Do you have a rough idea where these gates are going to be installed?
A: The gates are a future project and were only mentioned to point out the fact the system needs to be capable of expansion, however, they will be on the north and south driveways closer to S. Townline rd.
Q: Good morning, I would like to get some clarification on the doors that need access control. I see you updated a print with doors in red needing access control but I am seeing a discrepancy compared to what we spoke about during the walkthrough. I see that one of the doors in the board room is not marked in red however when we did the walkthrough, I thought I heard you say that all three doors needed access control. Can you confirm that please? Also there appears to be a door missing on the print in the middle of the bus garage leading to the Mechanic’s Bay. I wanted to confirm that you want that door on the system as well. Please advise.
A: The doors marked in red are the only doors that need to be key card accessible, there are a few additional doors that will not need to be accessed electronically.

Q: I wanted to take a moment to confirm with you whether the pre-bid meeting for project 2022-4 is scheduled for Saturday, September 3?
A: The date should have read August 3, not September 3, thank you for pointing that out, it has been corrected in the document.
Q: Do you have anything with placements of cameras (areas of interest)?
A: We do not.
Q: Can you advise where the electrical panels are located in each building please?
A: The electrical panel at the annex facility is located in the closet off the main area across from the restroom, The main office panel is located in mechanical room off parking garage on the north side of the building, there is also a sub-panel in the mechanical closet(which backs up to the server room) in the office area.
Q: Can you please confirm the number of spare fiber available to us to use as well as the type of fiber it is (single mode or multimode) and the type of connections on the fiber.
A: The only fiber on site is a connecting link between the main office building and the bus wash, I am not sure how many spare if there are any or what connection type they are. There is currently no fiber data connection run to this facility.
