SUMMARY
The City of Lake Forest is seeking proposals from qualified vendors to refresh and modernize its Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) Network Video Recorder (NVR) compute infrastructure across five primary facilities: City Hall Civic Center, Sports Park, Skate Park, Heroes Park, and El Toro Park.
The primary scope entails conducting mandatory site assessments, procuring and deploying brand-new enterprise-grade hardware with no refurbished units allowed across four sites, transitioning operating systems from Windows 10 Pro to approved enterprise editions, and upgrading the existing Dell PowerEdge R7460XS at the Sports Park to 64GB of ECC RDIMM memory. The selected vendor will also upgrade the City's video management platform from Milestone XProtect 2019 R1 to the latest enterprise release using City-procured licensing, seamlessly migrating approximately 125 camera feeds without modifying camera-side IP configurations. The submission deadline is November 6, 2026, at 5:00 pm, with a question deadline of October 26, 2026. Responses must be submitted electronically via the OpenGov portal.
