About this file
This is a Request for Quote (RFQ) issued by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) for Juniper networking equipment and maintenance services to replace current end-of-life equipment in the FDIC's Wide Area Network (WAN) infrastructure.
The solicitation number is CORHQ-26-Q-0116, with an offer due date of April 30, 2026, by 12 p.m. local time. The FDIC is seeking proposals from authorized Juniper resellers or the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). The requirement includes 26 line items covering hardware goods such as QFX5120 switches, ACX7348 and ACX7300 routing platforms, direct attach copper cables (QSFP28 and SFP28), and associated line cards, along with hardware maintenance services including Juniper Care Next Day Support and Advanced Care Plus coverage. The period of performance is one year from award date. Deliveries must be made to the FDIC's Distribution Center in Arlington, Virginia, with tangible items requiring shipment-tracking information and non-tangible items (software licenses, activation codes, documentation) submitted via email. The evaluation method is lowest price technically acceptable, with technical acceptability determined by the offeror meeting minimum requirements: providing all required documents, supplying all items with matching part numbers from the price schedule, and confirming authorized reseller or OEM status. The FDIC reserves the right to make award to one or more contractors and request additional price reductions from the lowest priced technically acceptable offeror. Offerors must submit proposals in three volumes: pricing using the provided schedule, additional information including completed representations and certifications, and Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) information identifying manufacturer and subcontractor details for each good/service.

Section H - Special Contract Requirements PAGE 13 OF 47 services are procured for support of an item referred to in paragraph (1), (2), (3), or (4) of this definition, and if the source of such services--(i) offers such services to the general public and the Federal government contemporaneously and under similar terms and conditions; and (ii) offers to use the same work force for providing the Federal government with such services as the source uses for providing such services to the general public.
(6) Services of a type offered and sold competitively in substantial quantities in the commercial marketplace based on established catalog or market prices for specific tasks performed under standard commercial terms and conditions. This does not include services sold based on hourly rates without an established catalog or market price for specific service performed.
(7) Any item, combination of items, or service referred to in paragraphs (1) through (6), notwithstanding the fact that the item, combination of items, or service is transferred between or among separate divisions, subsidiaries, or affiliates of a contractor.
(8) Any item determined by the procuring agency to have been developed exclusively at private expense and sold in substantial quantities, on a competitive basis, to multiple state and local governments.
B. “Commercial supplier agreements” means terms and conditions customarily offered to the public by vendors of supplies or services that meet the definition of “commercial item” and intended to create a binding legal obligation on the end user, such as, but not exclusively, those used in information technology acquisitions, including acquisitions of commercial computer software and commercial technical data. Such agreements may be referred to as Terms of Service (TOS), End User License Agreement (EULA) or another similar legal instrument or agreement and may be presented as a part of a proposal or quotation responding to a solicitation for contract or order. The term applies, regardless of the format or style of the document, whether in paper or electronic form.
2. Applicability. The following terms and conditions apply to any commercial supplier agreement as defined in this clause. These terms take precedence and supersede any conflicting or contrary terms in a contractor, subcontractor or associated third party Commercial license agreement. When any supply or service acquired under this contract is subject to a commercial supplier agreement, the terms of this clause shall be deemed incorporated into the commercial supplier agreement. In addition, the Commercial Supplier Agreement is a part of a contract between the commercial supplier and the FDIC for the acquisition of the supply or service that necessitates a license or other similar legal instrument (including all contracts, task orders, and delivery orders). For accepted terms under the commercial supplier agreement, the ordering activity FDIC may be bound as end user, but a
Government employee or person acting on behalf of the government in his or her personal capacity will not be bound. The commercial supplier or license agreement may be incorporated into an FDIC contract as modified by this clause. If a Commercial Supplier Agreement is not required for the goods and services performed by the contractor, all the terms listed below in this clause are not applicable to the contract.
3. Contract Formation. All terms intended to bind the FDIC must be included in static text form within the contract signed by the FDIC. Neither the FDIC nor any authorized end user shall be deemed to have agreed to any terms in the commercial supplier agreement or any terms of any associated third-party agreement by a click box or other comparable mechanism (e.g., “click-wrap” or "browse-wrap" agreements) and such purported execution does not bind the FDIC or an authorized end user and is null and void.
4. Authorization. By executing the Contract, Contractor represents that it is duly authorized to enter into the
Contract, including any amendments to the commercial supplier agreement as incorporated into the contract.
Section H - Special Contract Requirements PAGE 14 OF 47
5. Venue. Any language requiring dispute resolution in a specific forum or venue that is different from that prescribed by applicable Federal law is hereby deleted.
6. Limitations on Actions. Any language prescribing a different time period for bringing an action than that prescribed by applicable Federal law in relation to a dispute is hereby deleted.
7. Arbitration; equitable or injunctive relief. In the event of a claim or dispute arising under or relating to this agreement, binding arbitration shall not be used unless specifically authorized by a FDIC guidance, and equitable or injunctive relief, including award of attorney fees, costs or interest, may be awarded against FDIC only when explicitly provided by statute (e.g. Prompt Payment Act). Any terms in the commercial supplier agreement requiring that disputes be submitted to arbitration or that claims the supplier has the right to injunctive relief, attorney fees, costs or interest is null and void and shall not be enforceable against the Government.
8. Updating Terms. After award the contractor may unilaterally revise terms if they are not material. A material change is defined as: (A) Terms that significantly change Government’s rights or obligations; and (B) Terms that increase Government prices; (C) Terms that decrease overall level of service; or (D) Terms that limit any other
Government right addressed elsewhere in this contract. For revisions that will materially change the terms of the contract, the revised commercial supplier agreement must be incorporated into the contract using a bilateral modification. Any terms or conditions unilaterally revised subsequent to award that are inconsistent with any material term or provision of this contract shall not be enforceable against the Government, and the Government shall not be deemed to have consented to them.
9. Representation. Any clause of this agreement requiring the commercial supplier or licensor to defend or indemnify the end user is hereby amended to provide that the U.S. Department of Justice has the sole right to represent the United States in any such action, in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 516 or FDIC under 12 U.S.C. §
1819, unless otherwise provided by Federal law.
10. Warranties and Disclaimers. FDIC will accept the contractor’s commercial warranty, but does not accept a disclaimer of the implied warranty that the items delivered hereunder are merchantable and fit for use for the particular purpose described in this contract. Additionally, FDIC does not accept a disclaimer of any warranties expressly provided for in the Contract.
11. Limitation of Liability. All limitations of liability accepted by FDIC shall only apply to claims based on contract and any limitations related to tort or other causes of action shall not apply and shall be null and void and unenforceable against the government. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the commercial supplier agreement, nothing in the contract or the commercial supplier agreement shall impair the U.S. Government''s right to recover for fraud or crimes arising out of or related to this Government contract under any federal fraud statute, including but not necessarily limited to the False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. §§ 3729-3733.
12. Audit. Any audit requested by the contractor will be at the contractor’s or Licensor’s expense without reimbursement by the FDIC. Further, such audit may only be conducted if the auditor satisfies the FDIC’s security requirements for access to its facilities, systems and information.
13. Term and Termination. Neither the Contractor nor Licensor can unilaterally revoke, terminate or suspend an
Agreement or any associated rights granted to the FDIC. In the event of a dispute, the requirements specified in
Section H - Special Contract Requirements PAGE 15 OF 47 the Disputes paragraph of this document would apply.
14. Continued Performance. The supplier or licensor shall not unilaterally revoke, terminate or suspend any rights granted to the Government except as allowed by this contract. If the supplier or licensor believes the FDIC to be in breach of the agreement, it shall pursue its rights under the Disputes Clause of the contract or other applicable
Federal statute while continuing performance.
15. Confidentiality. If the agreement includes a confidentiality clause, it shall be amended to state that the
Government and Government employee’s obligations with regard to confidentiality are governed by statute, such as, but not exclusively, the Trade Secrets Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1905 and the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. §
552. To the extent that the confidentiality language conflicts or in any way purports to alter the Government or
Government employee’s obligation with regard to confidentiality, such language shall be null and void and will not be enforceable against the Government.
16. Indemnification. Any language requiring the FDIC to indemnify a contractor or related third-party licensor is null and void and is unenforceable against the Government.
17. Automatic Renewal. Except as otherwise expressly agreed to by the FDIC, any provision of an Agreement requiring automatic renewal of the Agreement is unenforceable against the FDIC.
18. Integration. Any integration clause shall be amended to recognize the associated Contract and these terms and conditions as part of an “entire agreement.”
19. Disputes. If the supplier or licensor believes FDIC is in breach of the Agreements, it shall pursue its rights under the Disputes clause of the Contract and Federal laws and performance under the Contract shall continue pending resolution of the dispute.
20. Governing Law. This agreement shall be governed by Federal law. Any language purporting to subject the
U.S. Government to the laws of a U.S. state, U.S. territory, district, or municipality, or a foreign nation, except where
Federal law expressly provides for the application of such laws, is hereby deleted.
21. Assignment. Neither the Contract nor these Agreements, as amended, shall be assigned, nor may any rights or obligations be delegated, without FDIC’s prior approval, except as permitted pursuant to Clause 7.6.5-05, Assignment of Claims.
22. Payment. The FDIC Contract governs the purchase and payment of fees. Payment for awards made by the
FDIC in its corporate capacity are subject to the Prompt Payment Act. 31 USC §§ 3901-05.
23. Taxes. The FDIC is exempt from paying any City, County, State, and Federal taxes as provided by Tax
Exempt Certificate No. 53-0185558.
24. Force Majeure. Failure to perform this contract according to its terms is excusable and not an event of default if the failure to perform is caused by events beyond the control of Contractor, and through no fault or negligence of
Contractor.
