About this file
This document is a Sole Source Determination under the Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13. It supports a sole-source award for essential session initiation protocol (SIP) based Local & Long Distance Telecommunication Service (LLDTS) and features for the 129th Rescue Wing (129 RQW) at Moffett Air National Guard Base, California. AT&T is the only provider with existing infrastructure and telephone services at the demarcation point, and switching to a new provider would require installing new infrastructure and result in loss of existing direct inward dialing (DID) numbers and potential service outage. The estimated amount is redacted, and the period of performance is one base period of 12 months with four 12-month option periods. The applicable NAICS code has a size standard of 1,500 employees. The government will continue to survey the market for any changes that may allow competition in future acquisitions.

AT&T has a point of presence in the demarcation point for providing telephone services at Moffett Field Air National Guard Base. Selecting a provider other than AT&T would require the new provider install new infrastructure, loss of existing direct inward dialing numbers, and service outage within the installation. The government does not believe it will recoup savings from competition by having another provider install new infrastructure at the demarcation point of which
Market research shows five service providers, including AT&T, who can provide the service. However, with the reasons stated in paragraph 4 above, the government believes this requirement is single source to AT&T. Only AT&T can provide a seamless, uninterrupted, and affordable telephone service which ensures the 129 RQW keeps its existing DID telephone numbers.
