Re: City of Manhattan Beach Response to Bid Protest email dated 8-30-2023 (Bid. E1279-23C)

Dear Mr. Fouladian

The City of Manhattan Beach (City) received an email dated August 30, 2023 on behalf of L.A. High Tech Enterprises, Inc. protesting the bid submitted by the apparent low bidder BlueViolet Networks for the City Facility Security Cameras Public Works Yard and City Hall Fire Department and Police Department Project (Bid No. E1279-23C).

The protest argues that the Network Video Recorders (NVRs) provided in Addendum No. 4 of the Notice Inviting Bids takes precedence over any conflicting information contained in the plans.

Furthermore, by not using the provided NVRs in their bid package, BlueViolet Networks was not “responsive” to the bidding instructions and specifications.

City staff notified BlueViolet Networks of the bid protest and received a formal response from them on September 1, 2023. In their response, BlueViolet Networks indicated that they used the listed manufacturer NVR models in Addendum No.4 and the minimum requirements outlined in the specifications to propose “equal or better” NVRs in their bid. L.A. High Tech Enterprises, Inc. was provided a copy of that response, and submitted a supplemental response on September 8, 2023, maintaining its position that BlueViolet Networks did not follow the bidding instructions.

In the City review of the protest, it has determined that the NVRs provided in BlueViolet Network’s bid are “equal” to the models provided in Addendum No.4, which was also acknowledged in L.A.

High Tech Enterprises, Inc. supplemental response. Furthermore, Public Contract Code Section 3400, in part, provides that unless the specified product is to be sole sourced (with required findings), that implicit in every brand name listing is the “equal” qualifier. Additionally, Addendum City Response Letter to L.A. High Tech
Enterprises, Inc. Page 2 of 2 Project #E1279-23C
No. 4 cannot serve to preempt the “or equal” requirement of State law which is acknowledged and implemented through the General Provisions and Technical Specifications.

Based on the above, the City found that the protest by L.A. High Tech Enterprises, Inc. was without merit and per the Notice Inviting Bids, the City reserves the right to waive any irregularities or informalities in any bid or in the bidding process, as deemed to be in the best interest of the City.

The City of Manhattan Beach thanks L.A. High Tech Enterprises, Inc. for its interest in bidding on City projects. The City looks forward to L.A. High Tech Enterprises, Inc. continued interested in its project.

Should you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at [email protected] or at (310) 802-5340.

To Whom it May Concern,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to protest the bid:

City Facility Security Cameras Public Works Yard and City Hall Fire Department and Police Department Invitation #
E1279-23C

Our Bid from L.A High Tech Enterprises INC, proposed exactly the specifications in Addendum 4, by Avigilon.

The Following Servers:

Base Bid
City Hall: AINVR-PRM-160TB-NA
Public Works Yard: AINVR-PRM-160TB-NA

Additive Bid
Fire & Police Department: NVR5-PRM-288TB-S19-NA

Addendum Number 4, which was recently introduced concerning the Avigilon Server's and Exact Model Numbers for this project, and as written it states:
"This Addendum shall take precedence over any conflicting information contained either in the plans"

In the bid protest procedure it clearly states:
"In order to be awarded a contract, the low bid must be “responsive” to the specification, and the low bidder must be a “responsible” bidder. A bid is responsive if it complies with the bidding instructions."

A Non-Avigilon Server without the exact model numbers listed above does not meet the specifications in Addendum 4 and does not follow the bidding instructions, moreover Avigilon Will NOT support a Non- Avigilon Server.

Please see the attached Datasheet/Specsheets of the Avigilon Servers we proposed, mentioned in Addendum 4, as supporting documentation.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

PROJECT NO. D-944
BID NO. E1279-23C

“City Facility Security Cameras Public Works Yard and City Hall Fire Depart and Police Dept” Mr. Edward Pech and The City of ManhaƩan Beach,
Thank you for allowing us to respond to the concerns raised by the protesƟng bidder, L.A. High Tech Enterprises Inc., specific to the Addendum 4.

This is the quote taken from the protesƟng bidder.
“A Non-Avigilon Server without the exact model numbers listed above does not meet the specificaƟons in Addendum 4 and does not follow the bidding instrucƟons, moreover Avigilon Will NOT support a Non-Avigilon Server.”
Our jusƟficaƟon in proposing an “equal or beƩer,” server was based on secƟon 2.02, page 10-106. With the servers we proposed were based on the specificaƟons of the Avigilon Servers listed in Addendum 4 which we read and acknowledged.

2.02 VSS VIDEO MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (VMS)
A. General: Contractor shall provide all soŌware and licenses required to meet the specified funcƟons herein.

B. Video Management SoŌware (VMS): Avigilon Unity ACC. Provide SQL database license.

C. Management Server. Configure as required by the manufacturer to meet the project requirements. System shall be configured to handle system growth for double the cameras for this iniƟal project. Management server shall be rack mount configuraƟon We acknowledge and agree that the specificaƟons idenƟfied by the servers listed in Addendum 4 “take precedence over any conflicƟng informaƟon,” and were met as listed in secƟon 2.02 C. We used the listed manufacturer server models provided in Addendum 4 for the server specificaƟons to meet the requirements listed above in secƟon C. I am aƩaching a spec sheet just for reference.

As for the statement that Avigilon will not support a non-Avigilon server. That is a correct statement regarding the physical server since it was not purchased through Avigilon. The physical server will be supported by BlueViolet Networks and the manufacturer of the server.

The Avigilon servers are Dell servers that are branded Avigilon. While we sell both Avigilon branded servers and 3rd party servers, the brand name of the servers is not “material,” to its funcƟon or support of the soŌware and licenses installed.

There are hundreds, if not thousands of Avigilon customers on 3rd party, customer provided servers or virtual machines, VM Ware and Hyper-V that Avigilon does not support. This is an obvious statement.

In fact, the largest liquor distributer in the United States, Southern Glazer Wine & Spirit has thousands of cameras on non-Avigilon branded servers.

Avigilon supports its soŌware and the licenses through authorized partners and cerƟfied technicians.

The California Department of General Services, secƟon 1404.2, defines Responsive and Responsible Bidder as below.

Responsive Bid: A bid is considered responsive if it indicates compliance without material deviation from the requirements of the solicitation and the terms and conditions of the proposed contract.

Responsible Bidder: A bidder is responsible if they possess the experience, facilities, reputation, financial resources and are fully capable of performing the contract.

Without reservaƟon we met the requirements of a “Responsive Bid,” based on the needs listed by the City and the language of the RFP .

As for the Responsible Bidder, BlueViolet Networks has been in business since 1979 with 80% of our business supporƟng customers in CA local government, K-12 and Higher EducaƟon. See customer list aƩached.

We just completed this summer a $5M project for Mt San Jacinto College and are in middle of compleƟng an Avigilon project for the City of Lawndale. With plenty of capacity to fulfill this project on based on the Ɵmelines outlined in the RFP .

We are also a Motorola Safety Reimagined partner, that qualifies us to provide a fully integrated soluƟon for CiƟes and Police uƟlizing Motorola Public Safety Radios for alerƟng.

We are an Avigilon Elite+ Partner, the highest level of recogniƟon from the manufacturer, with the highest discounts and number of cerƟfied technicians in Southern California.

We are a Division of The Cook & Boardman Group with the financial health and bonding capabiliƟes of a $1B dollar organizaƟon but with local service and support.

We have a CMAS contract for Avigilon/Motorola with labor to simplify procurement and add-ons, which I will also aƩach for reference.

With all of this being said, if the intent was for the City to “hard spec” the Avigilon specific part number, we apologize again for the confusion. As a show of good faith, Blue Violet Networks will honor its bid pricing to include the Avigilon branded servers listed on Addendum 4.

We hope to sƟll be considered for your partner on this project! Sincerely,

Melissa Orwig, A3 CommunicaƟons DBA Blue Violet Networks

Subject: Re: [EXTERNAL] Protest Bid: Invitation # E1279-23C Hello Eddie,

Thank you for the update.

I respectfully disagree with their response, as the hardware specs may be the same as Avigilon, however those servers are a quarter of the price of Avigilon Servers which is not fair for others who followed the bidding instructions including Addendum 4.

Again thank you for the update and we will wait to hear back on the decision.

In the meantime, should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

Have a Great Weekend!

To Whom it May Concern,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to protest the bid:

City Facility Security Cameras Public Works Yard and City Hall Fire Department and Police Department
Invitation #
E1279-23C

Our Bid from L.A High Tech Enterprises INC, proposed exactly the specifications in Addendum 4, by Avigilon.

The Following Servers:

Base Bid
City Hall: AINVR-PRM-160TB-NA
Public Works Yard: AINVR-PRM-160TB-NA

Additive Bid
Fire & Police Department: NVR5-PRM-288TB-S19-NA

Addendum Number 4, which was recently introduced concerning the Avigilon Server's and Exact Model Numbers for this project, and as written it states:
"This Addendum shall take precedence over any conflicting information contained either in the plans"

In the bid protest procedure it clearly states:
"In order to be awarded a contract, the low bid must be “responsive” to the specification, and the low bidder must be a “responsible” bidder. A bid is responsive if it complies with the bidding instructions."

A Non-Avigilon Server without the exact model numbers listed above does not meet the specifications in Addendum 4 and does not follow the bidding instructions, moreover Avigilon Will NOT support a Non-Avigilon Server.

Please see the attached Datasheet/Specsheets of the Avigilon Servers we proposed, mentioned in Addendum 4, as supporting documentation.
4 Please let me know if you have any questions.
