About this opportunity

The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) has published a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole source contract to Hawaiian Telcom Federal LLC for Next Generation 911 (NG911) support services. This procurement will support the U.S. Navy Region Hawaii Regional Dispatch Center through a Communication Service Authorization (CSA) reaward. The contract involves NG911 Intrado Viper equipment and services that interface with Hawaii's NG911 network and support statewide Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs). DITCO-Pacific is handling the procurement under the authority of Simplified Acquisition Procedures and Other Than Full and Open Competition provisions. The anticipated award date is August 2025, with responses due by July 30, 2025.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to inform the contracting community of the government's intent to proceed with a sole source award rather than conducting competitive procurement. DISA has justified this approach by identifying Hawaiian Telcom Federal LLC as the sole provider of NG911 Intrado Viper equipment servicing all Hawaii PSAPs and the only Public Utilities Commission authorized provider for this service in Hawaii. The agency emphasizes that no other telecommunications provider can integrate NG911 into Hawaii's existing network infrastructure. This notice explicitly states it is not a request for competitive proposals, though the government retains discretion regarding competition decisions. Any information received will only be considered for determining whether to conduct competitive procurement, and interested parties have until July 30, 2025, to provide input that might influence this determination.
