About this opportunity

The key requirements include providing Cisco Smart Net Total Care Service, Cisco Focused Technical Support Services, and embedded advanced engineering services for over 420,000 Cisco branded devices across the VA enterprise. The contract will also require an asset management and tracking tool, Cisco educational credits, project management, and monthly reporting. Responses to the Request for Information (RFI) are due by October 1, 2024 and should include a revised Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) pricing based on the revised Performance Work Statement (PWS), recommendations for cost containment measures if the VA has a budget shortfall, and details on the level of services the VA would receive without software support for IP telephones.

This is a full and open competition with no set-aside designations. The incumbent or current contractor is not specified. The contract has a 12-month base period and four 12-month option periods. The award will be made based on the highest install base price band evaluated during the base period, but the total contract value is not provided.

This RFI is for planning purposes only and shall not be considered an Invitation for Bid, Request for Task Execution Plan, Request for Quotation, or a Request for Proposal. Additionally, there is no obligation on the part of the Government to acquire any products or services described in this RFI. Your response to this RFI will be treated only as information for the Government to consider.

This request does not constitute a solicitation for proposals or the authority to enter into negotiations to award a contract.

Please provide a revised ROM for these services based on the revised PWS.

Please provide a recommendation for cost containment within the PWS should VA have a budget shortfall and please detail the potential price impact for that cost containment.

If you would like a copy of the install base please email matthew.newell@va.gov and Evan.Lee1@va.gov

The PWS includes software only support for IP Telephones. What level of services would the VA receive without this software support. Would VA technicians still have the ability to download latest code?
