This is a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) request issued by the Internal Services Department (ISD) of the County of Los Angeles for a Telecommunications Equipment and Services Master Agreement (TESMA) procurement. The solicitation seeks qualified vendors to provide as-needed telecommunications services throughout Los Angeles County under three service categories: Service Category A covering the furnishing, installation, and maintenance of telecommunications equipment during warranty periods; Service Category B addressing the maintenance of telecommunications equipment; and Service Category C providing consulting services for the acquisition of telecommunications equipment. Vendors may submit qualifications for one or multiple service categories. The SOQ process will result in the execution of master agreements with selected vendors, establishing a pre-qualified pool of providers available to support the County's telecommunications needs on an as-needed basis.

The procurement establishes a master agreement framework allowing the County to issue task orders or purchase orders to qualified vendors without requiring competitive bidding for each individual project. Vendors selected through this SOQ process will be positioned to respond to County requests for telecommunications services across Los Angeles County. The master agreement structure enables efficient procurement of both equipment and services while maintaining a roster of pre-qualified, vetted vendors capable of meeting the County's telecommunications infrastructure and consulting requirements. This approach provides flexibility for the County to manage its telecommunications needs strategically while offering eligible vendors access to potential contract opportunities.
