Systemwide Station Security Improvement

SYSTEMWIDE STATION SECURITY IMPROVEMENT

GREEN LINE STATIONS: BOYLSTON, ARLINGTON, COPLEY, PRUDENTIAL AND RIVERSIDE

Summary

The goal of the Systemwide Station Security Improvement (SSSI) project is to upgrade the security and safety measures in the MBTA stations to enhance the safety and security of passengers, employees, infrastructure, support operations of the MBTA and combat crime and terrorism.

The sub-systems in Green Line Stations (Riverside Station, Boylston Station, Arlington Station, Copley Station, and Prudential Station) shall be integrated for seamless operation and universal data reporting at the Hub Centers and Control Centers. The following sub-systems will be required to provide the overall functional requirements of the SSSI: • Access Control: Installation for the complete operating Access control security system which will be supported and supplied by existing systems in concert with new equipment and software. This shall include all access control equipment, wiring, power requirement, network connection requirement, and all other component at sites as necessary to provide a completely new Access Control System that is compatible with the existing system. A Total of 23 Card readers to be installed in all 5 stations. • Emergency passenger assistance Telephone: Install IP emergency call boxes located on designated area shown on the design drawings to provide emergency call to the MBTA police and Information call to a Hub operator. The installation shall follow ADA compliance and shall be integrated/associated with a video surveillance camera. A Total of 21 Passenger assistance telephones to be installed in all 5 stations. • Video Surveillance with Analytics/Intrusion Detection: the new upgrade shall focus on expanding the existing MBTA Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) to enhance the safety and security of passengers, employees, infrastructure, support operations of the MBTA and combat crime and terrorism. The installation will utilize IP based cameras instead of legacy analog cameras that are encoded for transmission over the MBTA’s IP network and improve the existing coverage with new IP camera as required. A Total of 156 cameras (Fixed, 180 degrees and 360 degrees) to be installed in all 5 stations.

Refer to the Contract Drawings and Specifications for complete system details, design, implementation, and requirements. Major requirements are listed below: 1. The video system data shall be stored in existing central storage bank at the primary MBTA storage location for 30 days at 8FPS. The Contractor shall include with their bid the processing calculations, and indicate the total number of storage required;. The Contractor shall assume 2Mbps stream rates in their calculations. The live and recorded streams from all cameras shall be connected to the Video Management System (VMS) over the Security Wide Area Network (SWAN) for viewing and display. 2. The Contractor shall integrate all video cameras into the network video recorder (NVR) and VMS. This integration requires the addition of all new devices to the VMS maps, and the addition of maps based on existing MBTA station AutoCAD plans for those locations that do not currently exist in the mapping system. The Contractor is responsible for all licenses associated with video hardware and systems integration. For testing, the Contractor shall provide field personnel to trigger alarms for camera call up, the Contractor shall provide this personnel for all testing activities and any required retesting. 3. The Contractor shall furnish and install a network switch (If required and shown on Contract drawings) at Stations identified on the Contract drawings to connect to an existing SWAN

network to allow network connection required for the access control and CCTV equipment upgrade. Coordinate with the MBTA for system activation and licensing. 4. Install Category 6 PoE cable to each camera from the existing/new PoE switch as shown on the contract drawings, and terminate in the new copper patch panel at each Category 6 device termination location, and patch to the Security Wide Area Network switch. 5. Furnish and install Single Person Train Operation System in Boylston Station only as described in the Contract Drawings and specs. 6. Install Category 6 cable to devices, and utilize PoE/Ethernet extenders where total cable length exceeds 328 feet (100 meters). No more than three (3) devices shall be allowed on one cable run. 7. Install new communications trunk conduits and spur conduits as necessary to attach video cameras, Access Control, and other end devices. The Contractor shall follow all requirements of TIA standards, NEC code, and NFPA 130 for installation of networking and control cabling including, but not limited to, fill ratios. 8. All CCTV cameras, doors, tamper switches, and call boxes shall also be configured in the VMS, and shall be added to the existing and new VMS maps for each station. The Contractor will be provided with AutoCAD files of all areas for map creation. The Contractor shall provide all necessary licensing. 9. The Contractor shall submit for review and approval detailed installation plans for all systems, equipment and cable to be installed as part of this Contract. 10. The Contractor shall conduct and submit complete acceptance tests and certify all systems, equipment, fiber optic and copper wiring, cable, splices and terminations are installed and complete for use as part of a security system. This includes both product and subsystem testing up to full, comprehensive, total system testing. The Contractor shall develop all test plans, procedures, prefilled test data sheets, etc., for use during system testing and certification. Submit all documentation to the MBTA for review and approval prior to scheduling of acceptance testing. The Contractor shall also perform system pretests, within their capabilities, prior to MBTA acceptance testing. The Contractor shall submit summary documentation of pretest results and confirmation that they are prepared for the acceptance testing, or the documentation shall list the problems that they must correct and a course of action. A pretest report template shall be submitted and approved prior to any pretesting occurring. The Contractor shall pretest all systems to ensure that all controls, alarms, views, and actions are properly displayed and functioning through the VMS system without false positives or false negatives.

PROSECUTION OF WORK AND SCHEDULE The Contractor shall start their work within fifteen (15) calendar days from the date of the receipt of the executed contract by the MBTA. The Contractor shall complete or submit each element of work within the milestone dates described in the specifications, and complete all milestones including contract closeout within 288 days, unless otherwise agreed to, or extended, in writing by the Engineer. The Contractor shall complete each individual station work milestone within the days specified in the specifications until all 5 stations are completed.
