Issue: We are having visual security camera issues with our monitors. We put in a work order for I.T. to stop by and try to fix the visibility of the 3 outdoor cameras. It was discovered that the camera wiring is fried and the sunlight entirely has disintegrated the plastic conduit from the cabling therefore new wiring is required. Due to the age of the security system and parallel with the findings, the professional recommendation was given for the installation of a whole new surveillance system with new wiring, NVR, and cameras.
Solution: We have gotten 3 quotes (Novastar $5,629, Lan-Tech $6,250, and Audio Dynamics $7,597). We have selected Novastar which is the best value.We currently have $3,541.55 in the 2009 Minor Tools and Apparatus account. Therefore, attached please find our completed BA-01 form for the request of $2,087.45 from the Fund Balance Account in order to purchase a new security system for our portion of the building which includes cat 6 cablings as opposed to analog.
Result: JP Pct.2,Pl.1, security system will be up to date with overall improved camera visibility on all 16 cameras.
