Commercial Mobile Devices (CMDs)

A wireless CMD is defined as a unit of equipment, such as a cell phone, smart phone, and wireless data device running on the provider's cellular network. CMDs are composed of all necessary hardware, firmware, and software, and can be mobile; or in the case of infrastructure, fixed.

Specific CMDs shall include; as commercially available, the ability to interoperate with public safety networks. These devices can be excluded, as needed to meet commercial standards.

CMDs are separated into Standard mobile technology and Secure mobile technology.

The following capabilities are mandatory for all CMDs unless indicated otherwise:

The Contractor shall provide CMDs that are “Unlocked”. Unlocked is defined as, a CMD which is not restricted to use on one contractors network through software, hardware, or any other means. The CMD shall be capable of being utilized on any contractors’ network.

The Contractor shall provide and support commercially available CMDs (Including cell phones, wireless data devices, Internet hotspots, and tablets) with the characteristics and features needed to operate on their network.

The Contractor shall provide the Government with an equipment list of CMDs (e.g., cell phones, Internet hotspots, and tablets) and associated accessories and submit the list to the Contracting Officer for review.

The CMDs provided on the list must be on the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) approved products list (APL) for Multi-Function Mobile Devices (MFMD). The Government will review the list and make any necessary changes to ensure the products are compliant with Government policies and standards. The Government-approved list will then become the official equipment list of devices and associated accessories that will be available from the Contractor. The new approved list must be modified into the Service Agreement prior to use.

The Contractor shall propose revised equipment lists as needed to remain current with the latest technology. When proposing updates, the Contractor shall work with the Government, to the extent practicable; to minimize the total cost of ownership through maximizing the continued compatibility of previously purchased accessories with the proposed new devices.

The Contractor shall obtain permission from the Contracting Officer to ensure compliance with Government standards and requirements prior to making any updates or changes to any equipment list.

The Contractor shall provide standard, commercially available warranties for commercial mobile technologies (1 year).

The Contractor shall not offer extended warranties, loss/damage protection plans or other insurance on CMDs. DoD self-insures for these losses.

CMD shall be separately priced from cellular airtime and their costs shall not be included in the cellular airtime pricing.

Devices shall support, without device modification, the option of using a Government-owned and/or Government- operated cell network, or virtual cell network, during national emergencies, training exercises, and overseas requirements.

Smart phone end-to-end requirements from Unified Capability Requirements (UCR) 2008, Change 2, or current shall be incorporated into all appropriate CMDs.

A.5. Technical Requirements

Coverage

Contractors shall work with designated Government points of contact (POCs) to identify areas requiring coverage enhancements and work toward improving coverage in targeted areas as they become identified.

Contractors are required to identify known FCC defined “dead zones”. The Contractor shall enhance coverage in targeted areas by means of cellular towers, antennas, COWs, repeaters, in-building solutions and other technology as it becomes available. The Contractor shall have a designated POC for this purpose and provide the contact information for that person. The Contractor shall offer Government-owned infrastructure options, where available, that reduce overall total cost of ownership. This infrastructure shall be carrier agnostic where possible. The Government retains the right to remove the Government-owned infrastructure at any time. If removed by the Government the contractor shall not be held liable to provide additional service in an effort to replace lost or deteriorated services.

Contractors shall provide coverage maps and are required to be posted on end user websites. The coverage maps shall show coverage quality/speeds for voice, texting, PTT, data speeds, video downloading speeds. Coverage maps shall include areas within the Marianas Region, United States and outside the United States where applicable.

Although various coverage problems can occur (such as in-building limitations, weather impact, terrain foliage) the contractor will make every effort to support limited or loss of service requests. The offeror shall provide an in- building solution such as a repeater or femtocell like capability where recurring outages or loss of services occur. Government entities shall allow in-building solutions where feasible.

Standards

The Contractor shall work with the Government to document their network and product compliance with the following standards:
