Incident-Driven Video Recording Systems

April 1, 2021:  In alignment with the IDVRS RFI, the government is required to post questions and answeres to this RFI by 5 p.m. ET on April 1, 20201.  An excel spreadsheet of questions received and responses is hereby posted.  **************************************************This RFI seeks to obtain the current status of industry capabilities in the area of body-worn cameras (BWC), software for video management and redaction, cloud storage, and technology supporting an Incident-Driven Video Recording System (IDVRS) at CBP. CBP is interested in vendors’ capabilities to provide four key components of an IDVRS program in tandem:  body-worn cameras (BWC), video management systems (VMS), IT infrastructure, cloud-based storage systems, and other interrelated systems supporting incident-driven recordings.  CBP anticipates storing most footage in the cloud while maintaining Government ownership of the data indefinitely.  Footage is considered law enforcement-sensitive data and therefore must be stored in accordance with federal laws, regulations, and requirements. CBP is currently implementing a targeted deployment of IDVRS to a select number of known interdiction points where fixed camera systems do not record agent interactions with the public.  While a targeted IDVRS deployment initiates the program, CBP is interested in understanding existing market capabilities to equip CBP with additional
