Attachment N-Negotiator Scoring Sheet.xlsx

The document is a Negotiator Scoring Sheet for the MyFloridaNet-3 Invitation to Negotiate (ITN No. DMS-24/25-260) issued by the Florida Department of Management Services. The procurement seeks a single core services telecommunications network infrastructure provider to replace the existing MyFloridaNet-2 contract, targeting approximately 3,500 connections for state agencies, eligible non-profits, and governmental entities in Clay, Leon, and Polk Counties. The contract will provide core network services including MPLS, internet access, VPN, SD-WAN, security services, and centralized network management, with an initial seven-year term that includes an 18-month migration period. The solicitation was posted on June 3, 2025, with proposals due by September 22, 2025, and an anticipated contract award in June 2026.

The scoring sheet outlines a complex evaluation methodology allocating points across technical and pricing categories, with 100 total points distributed across areas such as Scope of Work, Support Services, and Pricing. The procurement includes a $60 million performance bond requirement and mandates compliance with Universal Service Fund regulations. Pricing will be based on a wholesale model with a DMS administrative fee, and services will be available on a month-to-month basis without quantity commitments or revenue guarantees. The estimated annual enterprise expenditure is approximately $60 million, with the goal of reducing service costs, improving service quality, and increasing long-term value for the state. The current MFN-2 contract was previously held by L3Harris Technologies, and the new solicitation appears open to a wide range of telecommunications service providers.
