Please briefly detail your company’s ability to provide the smart sensor technology below to include open protocol and backward capability. Please also detail capability for each sensor type independently. DRAFT REQUIREMENT FOR TYNDALL FRCS: Facility sensors and controls shall be multi-modal if possible and used where appropriate. Smart sensor technology shall be applied to support building automation, occupancy analysis, energy efficiency monitoring, back-up power or redundant energy systems monitoring, leak detection (via pressure, temperature, or visual), fire/smoke/carbon monoxide, gunshot detection and other applicable building systems. All mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems shall be equipped with factory installed controls and performance monitoring equipment. Sensors should be capable of collecting High Definition (HD) imagery to enable visual inspection of key/critical components. All Facility Related Control Systems (FRCS) shall comply with current AF policy and Unified Facility Criteria for Cybersecurity of FRCS. The designer shall provide a security engineering plan that describes the security issues related to the facility design and the mitigations needed to reduce the risk from those issues. The product of the design shall be secure FRCS that are separated from the base enterprise information network, segregated from other FRCS, isolated inherently insecure technologies (e.g. wireless), and provides authorized and authenticated user access. Upon project completion, the product to the AF will be full documentation of the security design and the test artifacts sufficient for the AF to successfully request Authorizations to Operate under the AF Risk Management Framework. NIST SP800-82, Guide to Industrial Control System Security, shall be used to clarify technical requirements of the FRCS design. Systems that support privatized utilities or services must comply with requirements of DFARS clauses related to Controlled Unclassified Information for Defense Critical Infrastructure. New Facility Related Control System sensors shall be open protocol with current technology (i.e. Open Bacnet) and backward compatible with protocols of existing or previously installed sensors in order to meet current security standards.
