About this opportunity
The Department of the Army National Guard, specifically the 178th Wing Contracting Office, is seeking a small business contractor to provide local and long-distance commercial telecommunication services conversion. The solicitation involves replacing existing low-speed time-division multiplexed (LSTDM) circuits with emulated session initiation protocol (SIP) trunking services for two Air National Guard installations in Ohio. Key contract requirements include maintaining all current connectivity features, supporting 24/7/365 operations with 99.9% availability, and migrating 830 Direct-Inward-Dialing (DID) directory numbers without losing existing capabilities. The contract will be awarded as a firm fixed-price arrangement with a base year and four optional one-year extensions. Interested offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and submit their quotes by May 27, 2025, with quotes remaining valid for 30 days after submission.
The solicitation is set aside 100% for small businesses under NAICS code 517111, with a small business size standard of 1,500 employees. The project will support telecommunications infrastructure at the Springfield Air National Guard Base and Blue Ash Air National Guard Base in Ohio, with the contractor responsible for providing local access, transmission equipment, and cables to government-provided floor spaces. The government will provide rack space (10RU at Springfield, 8RU at Blueash) and environmental controls. While no specific award value is mentioned, the contract duration spans 12 months after the date of contract, with potential for four additional option years. Contractors will need to submit interconnection agreements, develop detailed cutover plans, ensure E911 compatibility, and adhere to strict outage restoration protocols with varying response times based on service priority levels.
