BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Department of Veterans Affairs has a non-functioning beacon system manufactured by the Code Blue company. The cellular technology in it is outdated and no longer supported by the carrier. As a result, the facility is left with one remaining emergency beacon that when pressed does not summon emergency assistance. This is clearly an untenable situation, and this contract is to remediate this issue and increase safety in the parking area by the fuel farm. Additionally a previous contract was utilized in FY23 to address the other ten beacons around the campus but this one remaining beacon was not captured. Specific Tasks Clear Cloud will procure and install LS1000-D double-bezel speakerphones. This is a name-brand, exact fit item for the existing beacons and the facility will not accept equivalent as the beacons and these components are proprietary to Code Blue and other products will not work as desired. Clear Cloud will program both buttons in each speakerphone to dial the following numbers: PUSH FOR HELP will dial 909-801-5744, which is assigned to the VA Police Direct Dial Line. INFO will dial 909-583-6407, which is assigned to the Volunteer Services and will be used to call shuttles to the code blue location. The VA will accept dialing the managed call services and then a redirect to these numbers. Procure and install cellular activation kits with VPN routers at the beacon location, allowing it to operate independently. GMC Tek and Clear Cloud will work with Code Blue to deliver cloud-based call management services that include status monitoring and updates when a device becomes inoperable. Clear Cloud will help coordinate with vendors who are providing 4G sim cards and 4G cellular service. Billing for this will be annually at the beginning of system operability via GMC Tek. Clear Cloud will procure and install (1) lead-acid battery, replacing the existing battery in the system and will provide a disposal report to the VA upon turn in or recycling. Clear Cloud will procure and affix vinyl decal for the fuel farm beacon. Clear Cloud will provide an aerial map with the numbered location as a deliverable for this contract. 2.0 Installation A.
