Description
Purpose This is a Request for Information (RFI). The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is conducting market research to identify and evaluate innovative, stand-alone gunshot detection technologies suitable for an Interagency Security Committee (ISC) Level V facility. The objective of this RFI is to identify solutions that may enhance facility protection, improve threat detection, and support efficient security operations. Technologies submitted in response to this RFI must be authorized for Department of Homeland Security (DHS) use, operate independently of privacy-sensitive systems, and present no privacy concerns, including the collection, retention, or processing of personally identifiable information (PII). Scope FEMA seeks vendor capability statements and responses to the "Minimum Requirements" and "Requested Information" below as it relates to security technologies designed to detect and alert personnel to gunshot-related threats within or near an ISC Level V facility. Technologies of interest may include, but are not limited to, stand-alone acoustic, sensor-based, or other non-privacy-invasive gunshot detection solutions. Minimum Requirements Interested vendors should demonstrate that their solution meets the following requirements: Is authorized for DHS use, or can provide documentation supporting its DHS authorization status. Operates as a stand-alone solution and does not require integration with privacy-sensitive systems. Does not collect, retain, process, or transmit PII or other privacy-sensitive information. Provides capabilities relevant to gunshot detection and threat response in an ISC Level V facility environment. Supports timely alerting, situational awareness, and operational response. Can be presented through a vendor briefing and, if available, a live or virtual demonstration. Requested Information Vendors responding to this RFI should submit a capability statement that includes: Product name, description, and technical specifications. Overview of the solution’s gunshot detection and threat-mitigation capabilities. Description of how the solution operates as a stand-alone system. Explanation of privacy protections, including confirmation that the solution does not collect or process PII. Relevant use cases or prior deployments in ISC Level V facilities or comparable high-security environments. DHS authorization status and supporting documentation, as applicable. Availability for a vendor briefing and/or live demonstration. Primary point of contact, including name, title, organization, email address, and telephone number. Submission Deadline Interested vendors should submit responses no later than 5PM ET on 11/20/2026. If your response is selected for further review, you may be asked to provide a briefing and, when feasible, a live demonstration of capability.
