DESCRIPTION
The government authority in Rockford, Illinois is seeking professional design and engineering services for the complete assessment, design, and replacement of existing fire alarm systems with a modern, open-platform fire alarm and emergency communications system. The resulting system should support reliability and code compliance, long-term maintainability, testing and diagnostics, future expansion and modifications, and integration with existing building automation and monitoring systems.
The project includes off-site notification through app- or web-based software and covers the Discovery Center Museum and administrative offices, as well as the Rockford Art Museum, offices, and art storage vault. The selected firm will verify existing fire alarm devices, conduit, wiring, and infrastructure; conduct field surveys of all internal building areas; and confirm existing as-built conditions as part of the design services.
A non-mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for September 8, 2026.
