DESCRIPTION/SPECIFICATIONS/WORK STATEMENT

A- BACKGROUND

The Department of State (DoS) is comprised of over 256 missions around the globe and for the

Department, technology has become critical to the execution of effective diplomacy, and responsible data and information management continues to be a top priority for Department. Our

Embassy needs reliable communications as well as redundancy in case of critical failures of our primary circuit. In FY2020, Embassy Beirut purchased a satellite backup service and hardware for our main line out of Lebanon. This has ensured our ability to communicate and offers a reliable means in which to do so. Numerous Embassies in this region use the same type of system for backup communications. Due to the nature of the yearly cost of this service, Embassy

Beirut must bid this on open contract to ensure we meet Department as well as Federal regulations.

Embassy Beirut requires a satellite system to ensure we have means to communicate with others in the region, around the globe, as well as with Washington. The Embassy has benefited from this service in the past due to host country’s struggle with fuel, the economy, and political instability.

Embassy Beirut’s IRM office is responsible for maintaining the circuit along with stateside remote support from the provider, thereby enhancing the diplomatic readiness of Embassy

Beirut’s ability to process information. The goal is to provide this Embassy with a secure and reliable means to reach a global audience for all IT communications. Ensuring the integrity and availability is important as is customer service up time and down times.

The Embassy is seeking proposals for a dedicated service provider that will enable Post to maintain communications with a reliable backup and robust satellite system to perform and reach our objectives for diplomacy.

B- OBJECTIVE

The objective of this requirement is to provide Embassy Beirut with secure, reliable, and a robust means to communicate when our main aggregate is inoperable. Up time is paramount, as is the need to communicate with Embassy Beirut’s IT staff during mandatory maintenance, network failures, and 24/7 assistance. We require a minimum of 24/7 bandwidth of 40 mbps while the main aggregate is in operations. We also require the ability of the satellite system to within 24 hours, upgrade to on demand bandwidth to the maximum of 100 mbps. We require commercial and military quality that must be the higher QOS percentage possible but, at minimum, greater than 99.97% or the highest possible quality of service connection reaching 100%.

C- SCOPE

The intent of this acquisition is the creation of a service agreement that will establish a satellite link contract service for the Embassy’s backup communication’s link for Intranet/Internet

Embassy Beirut’s IRM administers the lines of communications while the service provider will ensure up times, maintenance is performed with prior notification to the Embassy, as well as

24/7 support when needed. The supporting infrastructure is in place and knowledge of this equipment, i.e., nomenclature, repairs, troubleshooting must be acknowledged.

The Respondent is required to provide evidence of expertise and qualification to provide professional services for the provisioning and engineering of satellite services for United States

Embassy Beirut. The awardee will provide, obtain, and maintain uninterruptible satellite bandwidth and display ample knowledge of terrestrial communication. The evaluation for this criterion will include but may not be limited to, the following,

1. Demonstrated knowledge of military, commercial and private Satellite industry.

2. Well-developed and specific implementation and transition plan that will demonstrate how the current satellite implementation will be transitioned to the new satellite with minimal disruption to operational needs.

3. Pricing infrastructure which allows for maximum flexibility of implementations, replacements, and or improvements.

4. Demonstrate a track record of similar implementations.

5. Well developed upgrade path, should one be necessary, for existing facilities and equipment.

6. 24/7 Network Operations Center, (NOC) that is capable of remotely servicing Beirut’s system should any need arise, or should bandwidth need to be increased or decreased.

7. Demonstrated ability to manage satellite network requirements of a mission critical/military customer base.

8. Adequate experience in the area of satellite networking.

9. Hands-on and current expertise with satellite systems.

S. Circuit Downtime and Credits

Credits shall be assessed against the Contractor in those instances where the circuit during any given month or year that fail to achieve and sustain the minimum acceptance standards stated above.

1. Definitions:

Circuit Availability Acceptance Level: Yearly Circuit Availability Acceptance Level is computed by 365 calendar days times 24 (hours per day) times 99.7% acceptance level equals

8,716.20 hours annum. (365 x 24 = 8760 x 99.7% = 8,733.72). Monthly Circuit Availability is computed by the calendar days per month times 24 (hours per day) times 99.7% acceptance level

(example: 31 x 24 = 744 x 99.7% = 741.76).

Downtime: That period of time when the circuit becomes non-operational or unusable for communication or transfer of data or failures to meet the minimum acceptance standards. The maximum cumulative Annual downtime that shall be acceptable for corrective or preventative maintenance is 26.28 hours (8760 x .3%). The maximum cumulative Monthly downtime that shall be acceptable for corrective or preventative maintenance shall be .3% of the total available hours for the month (example: 31 x 24 = 744 x .3% = 2.23 hours).

Period of Downtime: Downtime shall commence at the time first attempt for contact is made by the Government (or its representative) to the Contractor’s Point of Contact and shall be annotated on the Remedy Ticket and shall continue until the circuit is returned into Service by the Government.

Downtime Credits: Monetary value returned to the Government for failure to meet the

Circuit availability requirements. Downtime Credits shall be assessed based on cumulative downtime time with the minimum assessment being one hour. Downtime credit shall be equal to the hourly or daily rate (as applicable) as identified in the schedule in Section B. There are two

(2) situations when circuit Downtime Credits can be accumulated:

1) Below Availability Level,

2) Extended Downtime.

2. Credit for Circuit Downtime by Situation

Below Availability Level: If the downtime accumulated for a circuit adds up to 26.28

(8760 x 0.3%) cumulative hours or more during any one contract year (365 calendar days) or depending on the number of hours for the month (example 744 x .3%) cumulative hours per month (example: 31 calendar day month) the Contractor shall grant an hourly credit to the

Government for each hour of downtime. Each additional one-hour increment or portion thereof will be assessed as an additional hour.

Extended Downtime Credit(s): Cumulative time of more than 18 hours but not greater than 24 hours for any one outage shall be assessed at a daily rate. Any increment of 24 hours beyond the initial 24 hours of any one outage shall be assessed at the standards for the hourly rate up to 12 hours, however between 12 and 24 hours the credit shall be assessed at the daily rate.

3. Exceptions to Cumulating of Downtime

Cumulating of circuit downtime shall include all unscheduled downtime deemed to be the responsibility of the Contractor, with the following exceptions:

a. When the failure to perform arises out of causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor or Sub-contractor as defined in the Termination for Default clause in Section I of this contract.

b. Malfunction of equipment, frequency fading and interference, errors of commission and/or omission by the Contractor or Sub-contractor, and commercial power surges or failures are considered to be normal hazards of the industry and therefore do not qualify as causes beyond the control of the Contractor or Sub-contractor. The Contractor shall be charged with credits for all reported outages determined “no trouble found” or “came clear while testing” but which exceed 45 minutes.

The Contracting Officer shall make final determination as to whether downtime is the responsibility of the Contractor. If requested by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall provide documentation to support claims of excusable downtime. For downtime determined to be the Contractor’s responsibility, the Contracting Officer may elect to assess a credit for each instance of non-performance.

4. Payment Reduction for Downtime Credits

When Circuit Downtime credit(s) is owed to the Government, the total number of creditable hours shall be accumulated for the month and will be deducted from the payment due the Contractor in the month they accrued.

5. Trouble Escalation Procedure

a. The Government shall refer the problem to the carrier after performing tests as prescribed in the Trouble Analysis procedure. Obtain the name of the carrier test person and a carrier ticket number; record this information on the Government’s Remedy Ticket.

b. After the trouble has been referred to the carrier for two (2) hours, recall the carrier for an update on the current trouble. Record the carrier’s response, the name of the individual you talked with, and the carrier ticket number on the Remedy Ticket.

c. After the trouble has been referred to the carrier for four (4) hours, recall the carrier for an update on the current trouble. If the carrier’s response is not satisfactory escalate the trouble to the carrier’s management. Record the carrier’s response, the name of the individual you talked with, and the carrier ticket number on the Remedy Ticket.

d. After the trouble has been referred to the Contractor for six (6) hours the COR shall escalate the trouble to the Contractor’s manager; also notify IRM/IMO and the Contracting Officer and the STATE IRM/ISC Office. Record the contractor’s response, the name of the individual you talked with, the Contractor ticket number, and the names of the IRM managers that were notified on the Remedy Ticket.

e. Continue to status the Contractor for the remainder of the outage or until you have received a problem resolved status.

6. Technological Refreshment

After contract award, the Government may; pursuant to FAR clause 52.212-4 - Contract Terms and Conditions –Commercial Items, paragraph (c), Changes; request changes within the scope of the contract. These changes may be required to improve performance or react to changes in technology.

The Contractor may propose for the Government’s technological refreshment, substitutions or additions for any provided products or services that may become available as a result of technological improvements. The Government may, at any time during the term of this contract or any extensions thereof, modify the contract to acquire products which are similar to those under the contract and that the Contractor has, or has not, formally announced for marketing purposes. This action is considered to be within the scope of the contract. At the option of the

Government, a demonstration of the substitute product may be required. The Government is under no obligation to modify the contract in response to the proposed additions or substitutions.

Such substitutions or additions may include any part of, or all of, a given product(s) provided that the following conditions are met and substantiated by documentation in the technological refreshment proposal:

a. The proposed product(s) shall meet all of the technical specifications of this document and conform to the terms and conditions cited in the contract.

b. The proposed product(s) shall have the capacity, performance, or functional characteristics equal to or greater than, the current product(s).

c. The proposal shall discuss the impact on hardware, services, and delivery schedules. The cost of the changes not specifically addressed in the proposal shall be borne entirely by the

Contractor.

d. Contractor has the right to withdraw, in whole or in part, any technological refreshment proposal prior to acceptance by the Government. Contractor will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that prices for substitutions or additions are comparable to replaced or discontinued products. If a technological refreshment proposal is accepted and made a part of this contract, an equitable adjustment, increasing or decreasing the contract price, may be required and any other affected provisions of this contract shall be made in accordance with FAR clause 52.212-4, paragraph (c), Changes, and other applicable clauses of the contract.

7. QUALITY ASSURANCE AND SURVEILLANCE PLAN (QASP)

This plan provides an effective method to promote satisfactory contractor performance. The QASP provides a method for the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) to monitor Contractor performance, advise the Contractor of unsatisfactory performance, and notify the Contracting Officer of continued unsatisfactory performance.
