Purchase Order HC101324PA015

The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) awarded a $45,546.55 firm fixed price purchase order to Level 3 Communications, LLC on December 13, 2023, for the provision, installation, and maintenance of a 10 gigabit backbone wave service connecting Scott Air Force Base, Illinois and Indianapolis, Indiana. The contract was issued as a request for quote (RFQ) without a small business set-aside designation and carries an ultimate completion date of October 3, 2025. Level 3 Communications, a subsidiary of Lumen Technologies, Inc., will perform the work from its facility in Westminster, Colorado.

The procurement supports DISA's critical mission of maintaining robust telecommunications infrastructure across the Department of Defense enterprise. Level 3 Communications' extensive track record as a federal telecommunications provider—with over $200 million in previous federal contract awards primarily from DISA and Department of Defense components—positions the company to deliver the required high-speed Ethernet transport services. This order exemplifies the type of circuit-based telecommunications support that Level 3 and its parent company, Lumen Technologies, routinely provide to federal agencies, ensuring reliable network connectivity for military operations and government communications.
