2-Appendix B - Pricing CHaas-REC and ESInet-NGCS.xlsx

This is a Consolidated Vendor Pricing Request spreadsheet for Delaware 911's Next Generation 9-1-1 Evolution project, requiring vendors to submit unified pricing for two integrated solution areas: Communications Hardware as a Service (CHaaS) and ESInet with Next Generation Call Services (ESInet-NGCS). The pricing template requests comprehensive cost information across twenty CHaaS line items and seventeen ESInet-NGCS line items, covering infrastructure such as redundant connections, hardware, workstations, monitoring systems, and support services, as well as advanced capabilities including text-to-911, GIS integration, translation and transcription, and multi-tenant functionality. Vendors must identify all one-time, recurring, usage-based, optional, and no-separate-charge items with specific unit pricing and bases, along with annual escalation percentages where applicable. The workbook automatically calculates annual totals and projects costs across a ten-year evaluation period for both individual solution areas and a combined core total.

The pricing structure requires vendors to complete detailed cost modeling for Years 1 through 10, enabling Delaware 911 to compare total cost of ownership across the contract term. The template includes designated sections for optional enhancements and alternative pricing assumptions, with fifteen blank rows for optional service offerings that vendors may propose. All required line items must receive explicit charge type designation to prevent ambiguity regarding pricing inclusion. The consolidated format allows evaluation of CHaaS and ESInet-NGCS pricing separately while aggregating costs for comprehensive budget analysis and comparative vendor evaluation.
