The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Hanscom Air Force Base is soliciting proposals for the procurement and installation of structured cables required for existing Video Teleconferencing (VTC) systems. This RFQ (FA283526Q0002) encompasses comprehensive cabling infrastructure for six fully operational VTC systems across multiple floors, including fiber-to-the-desk (FTTD) installation on the second floor serving approximately 96 endpoints, as well as VTC system installations in conference rooms on the first, second, and third floors. Key requirements include the installation of TAA-compliant multimode duplex LC/LC OM4 OFNP fiber cables with red jackets, copper wiring for NIPR networks, and fiber optic cables for SIPR networks, all meeting TIA 568.3-D standards for testing and ANSI/TIA-606-C labeling standards. The contractor must procure and install all necessary materials including racks, cabinets, speakers, cabling, and patch panels, coordinate with 66ABG/SCOI for network connectivity, and complete work within 30 days from award. The solicitation was posted on March 26, 2026, with answers to contractor questions posted as of April 22, 2026, and proposals are due by April 30, 2026.

This solicitation is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to qualified small businesses. The place of performance is Hanscom Air Force Base in Massachusetts, where the contractor will work across multiple floors to install approximately 200 fiber strands total with 192 strands to be patched at the head end, and establish dual network connections (NIPR and SIPR) at 96 workstations on the second floor and multiple conference room locations. The project assumes Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements apply, and all electrical outlets and network connections will be provided as available at installation time. While no specific award value or budget range is stated in the available documentation, the scope includes six complete VTC systems with redundant cable routing via parallel paths as specified in the Statement of Work. The government will provide certain equipment such as TSW-1070 GV model equipment, Room Kits per Cisco specifications, table microphones, cameras, and displays, with the contractor responsible for all remaining procurement and installation activities.
