Our firm is interested in submitting a proposal for a City-wide camera system for the City of La Quinta as set

Request for Qualifications
Vendor's knowledge and understanding of the project.
o Specialized has been involved with many very similar traffic signal based installations over the
years, we have the expertise to work within the traffic signal environment and proven expertise
to build or maintain a quality system. Specialized has CA Contractor's License No. 83245-5 _
Class C10, IMSA Traffic Signal Technician II, Axis Certified Professional and various advanced ---
fiber optic certifications.
Vendor possessing a quality camera system with associated capabilities, durability, warranties, costs,
and grant availability as outlined in the project description.
o Typically we recommend Axis Communications for the CCTV platform. Axis has proven to be
quality systems and hold up to harsh weather demands. We have also worked' with Pelco and
Cohu systems over the past.
o Costs are kept down by passing along manufacture special project pricing discounts. If selected,
we can work with Axis Communications engineers to build a materials listing, request project
pricing for the materials. Overhead is also low with a smaller installation company, we focus on
providing a solid solution, one contact start to finish.
o Project management skills are available to help with grant applications on the system design
side. We can certainly assist as needed to help outline and develop materials lists and drafts of
deliverables.
Vendor history of contracts successfully delivered with measureable results, reference list.
o We have installed many traffic signal cameras over the years. Early example of our work include
Palm Springs where we worked with another vendor and installed twelve cameras for the Palm
Springs Police department using wireless radios in 2002, http:l/trafficcctv.comlidl6.html. Since,
we have installed and maintained cameras and systems for many cities including Lake Forest,
Buena Park, Mission Viejo, Orange, Cypress, Sante, Vista, San Juan Capistrano, Fontana,
Hesperia, Apple Valley to name a few.
o Many projects required advanced technologies to bring the video communications back to the
main systems. We accomplish the tasks each with a strong background of copper, fiber-optic, or
wireless technologies.
o Current projects are with Lake Forest Sports Park 36 cameras and Buena Park Police 83
cameras where we are managing the ongoing maintenance and upgrades of complex systems.
Complete design, integration and maintenance start to finish, contacts can be available for
further information or demonstration of working systems. Access offsite viewing can be
arranged to view these cameras and functionality using mobile tablet for demonstration if
requested.
o Please see our webpage for further examples of work, http:lltrafficcctv.com
Identification of staff available and their expertise.
o Specialized is a sole proprietor operation with over 27 years expertise in the field of cameras,
fiber optics; copper based and wireless technologies with strong project management skills.
Additional staff is brought on as needed to support additional field workloads and areas of
further expertise. Larger projects we consider partnering with another firm to also assist when
needed. Many cities we work with are pleased with our attention to detail and response times to
meet the needs. Often the comment is made that with larger companies, the city does not get
the one to one attention needed that we often provide.
• Vendor's ability to deliver under budget and on time.
o Specialized has a proven track record of completion at the satisfaction of city staff on all projects
to date. We are called upon to continue working relationships for many years in most cases.
Budgets are typically met and projects completed on time and managed thru the duration.
Description of vendor's abilities to work with Cities for grant support.
o Great example is the City of Lake Forest, a large Sports Park was in the plans back in 2014.
Specialized was contacted to assist with drafting a CCTV and fiber plan for the 63 acre site
based on a paper plan set. A scope of work was presented along with bill of materials for budget
purposes and grant application. During the construction, we pulled in all fiber, terminated
cables, furnish and installed network equipment and CCTV cameras, wireless access points
etc.. We continue to assist with the on -going maintenance efforts.
o Another example is with the Buena Park Police Station where the current CCTV system is
outdated and in need of replacement. We are gradually replacing cameras as needed and
working with them to write an application for grant funding to replace the 83 camera system in
whole.
Detail service offering and client list.
o Specialized provides alternatives to solve surveillance needs and work to obtain the best
solution. Specialized provides wireless, fiber optic and copper CCTV transmissions. Our
experience and training covers most areas that just one contractor cannot. Radio transmission,
electrical, traffic signal and camera knowledge is where we focus to get the job done.
o Public agency client listing includes cites of Lake Forest, Buena Park, Mission Viejo, Orange,
Cypress, Sante, Vista, San Juan Capistrano, Fontana, Hesperia, Apple Valley.
I did not see a formal RFP application for this bid, understanding is this is the beginning stages to source
qualified companies and develop a listing for a RFP package down the road. Signed Non -Collusion form is
attached. If there are any other questions or detail we can provide, please contact me directly.
