About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force, 316th Contracting Squadron, seeks Passive Optical Network (PON) equipment—specifically Tellabs Optical Line Terminal chassis and associated hardware—to modernize base infrastructure at the Air National Guard Readiness Center, with quotations due September 17, 2026 and questions due by 12:00 PM EST on September 16. This is a 100% small business set-aside under total small business authority. The procurement is issued as a Request for Quotation for commercial items with no formal written solicitation to follow, and carries a brand name requirement justified by seamless compatibility with existing Tellabs infrastructure and an existing maintenance contract with Tyto Athene LLC obligated only to service Tellabs hardware.
Place of performance is Joint Base Andrews, Maryland. The equipment modernizes infrastructure supporting secure, high-bandwidth data transmission across both Unclassified (NIPR) and Secret (SIPR) enclassified enclaves to enhance Command and Control and warfighting operations while reducing physical footprint and power consumption. Current system components are end-of-life and obsolete, creating failure risk.
The requirement is NAICS 517121, Telecommunications Resellers, with a small business size standard of 1,500 employees. The parts list specifies one SIPR chassis configuration with four PON modules and three NIPR chassis configurations with twelve total PON cards, including OLT6 chassis, FlexSym XGS-PON optical line terminals, power supplies, cooling assemblies, transceivers, and recommended spare components. Required delivery is 90 days after award. Quotations must include contractor identification, total pricing for all items and shipping, product specifications by part number matching the parts list, and completed Attachment 2 forms addressing DFARS clauses 252.204-7016 and 252.204-7017. Evaluation considers price and technical acceptability, with award to the responsible offeror whose conforming quote is most advantageous to the Government. Upon award notification, the signed contract must be returned within 24 hours; failure to meet this deadline allows award to the next technically acceptable offeror. Quotations must remain valid until October 2026.
