About this file
This is a technical reference document and equipment specification sheet for a Request for Proposal issued by Montana State University on behalf of Montana PBS to modernize the Network Operations Center (NOC) in Bozeman, Montana. The RFP (MSU-RFP-2026-0787) seeks qualified technical systems integrators to provide comprehensive design, integration, and implementation services including removal of legacy equipment and installation of new routers, racks, patch panels, cabling, labeling, testing, and commissioning. The project requires maintaining on-air functionality throughout implementation, with system cutover and critical tasks coordinated with Montana PBS to ensure continuous broadcast operations. The reference document details the NOC infrastructure specifications, including a 12-inch raised access flooring system, 23 total racks, cooling requirements of 130,000-146,000 BTU/hr, and power requirements of approximately 45kW distributed across 28 dedicated 20-amp/120-volt circuits with backup generator and UPS support. The RFP opened February 26, 2026, at 10:00 AM MST, with proposals due April 2, 2026, at 2:00 PM MDT. The deadline for submitting questions is March 16, 2026. Site visits and a pre-proposal conference are available for interested offerors, and finalists may be required to provide references and participate in presentations, demonstrations, or interviews.
Pricing shall be submitted as a lump-sum total contract price with Net 30 payment terms. The RFP does not indicate specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises; however, offerors may receive up to 5% bonus points for demonstrating compliance with Executive Order No. 12-2016 regarding equal pay for Montana women. All offerors must comply with Montana prevailing wage requirements and submit required documentation including W-9 forms, remit-to address information, and contract liaison details. The University reserves the right to verify financial stability at its discretion, which may include audited financial statements for the three years preceding RFP issuance and any subsequent quarterly statements. No incumbent vendor information or specific budget allocation is disclosed in the available documentation. Interested organizations should contact Cheri Toeniskoetter at Cheri.toeniskoetter@montana.edu or 406-994-3212 for additional information regarding this procurement opportunity.
