Orange Lot 4 pricing.xlsx

This is a pricing template spreadsheet for leased dark fiber services for the Orangeburg School District in South Carolina, specifically for Lot 4 of the procurement. The template is designed to capture fiber route distances and associated costs between thirty-one school sites designated OB-1 through OB-31. Vendors are required to complete two primary matrices: a Fiber Route Matrix showing the distance in feet for each fiber run between Site A and Site B connections, and a Total First Month Costs Matrix detailing the complete first-month pricing for each connection. The spreadsheet accommodates the submission of individual fiber runs connecting various school locations within the district, with instructions emphasizing that only one vendor entry should be provided per fiber run.

The pricing structure requires vendors to break down costs into specific categories: E-Rate Eligible Non-Recurring Costs (NRC) for special construction including taxes and surcharges, E-Rate Ineligible NRCs for administrative fees and non-school district installation costs, Monthly Maintenance and Operations costs, and Monthly Circuit Recurring Costs (MRC). Vendors must first complete the route and cost matrices, then select the most cost-effective Site A to Site B connections to provide comprehensive services to the entire school district, with submissions requiring a network design diagram illustrating all selected connections. The pricing should present all cost-effective options available and comply with USAC Schools and Libraries Program rules and the Eligible Services List for fiber projects.
