About this file

This is a Request for Quote (RFQ) Supplemental Instructions document from the Illinois Department of Innovation and Technology (DoIT) for Metro Ethernet services requested by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) at its Benton facility. The solicitation seeks Fiber-Based Point to Point Metro-Ethernet Transport Service to establish wide area network connectivity between the DNR location at 901 N DuQuoin, Benton, Illinois 62812 and an Illinois Century Network (ICN) Point of Presence site. The service must be fiber-based and delivered via copper and wireless services are explicitly not acceptable. Vendors are responsible for delivering service inside the building to the DoIT-designated telecom room at both the A (origin) and Z (destination) end locations, with service terminating on vendor-provided switching equipment. Electronic submissions are required through BidBuy platform only.

Award will be determined based on total cost of ownership calculated as Monthly Recurring Charge multiplied by Service Term plus Non-Recurring Installation charges per site location. All pricing must be all-inclusive and final with no additional taxes, fees, surcharges, or pass-through charges permitted after award, including regulatory recovery fees, universal service fees, gross receipts taxes, or telecommunications-related surcharges. Bidders must complete pricing for all OPTION line items representing additional bandwidth tiers to be considered responsive; however, OPTION items will not factor into award determination except in case of a tie and may be utilized during the service term at the agency's discretion based on evolving bandwidth requirements. If a bidder has executed a contract with the State of Illinois Department of Innovation and Technology within the past twelve months for a similar product or service, the negotiated terms and conditions from that existing contract shall automatically apply to this solicitation without further negotiation.
