25-RFQ-034-Appendix-A-Cost-Model.xlsx

This is a cost model Excel spreadsheet for Solicitation Number 25-RFQ-034 for Broadband ISP Services, issued by Washington State's WaTech (Washington Technology Solutions). The document details broadband service requirements for multiple Washington State Department of Corrections (DOC) facilities, including Stafford Creek Corrections Center, Coyote Ridge Corrections Center, and Airway Heights Corrections Center. Each site requires redundant/diverse broadband circuits with specific bandwidth requirements ranging from 50Mb to 100Mb, with guaranteed installation intervals of 90 days. The solicitation mandates that proposed solutions cannot use existing primary circuit providers for each location, ensuring true network diversity.

The cost model includes detailed pricing information with monthly recurring charges (MRC) and non-recurring charges (NRC), along with scoring criteria for timeline and cost points. Each site has unique requirements, such as specific termination points within facilities and mandatory site security procedures for vendor personnel. The procurement emphasizes secure, redundant connectivity for correctional facilities, with vendors required to have an NSA (likely a Network Services Agreement) and applicable addenda to participate. The document suggests a competitive bidding process where vendors will be evaluated not just on cost, but on their ability to meet specific technical and security requirements for each correctional facility's unique network infrastructure needs.
