About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command is conducting market research for Local Telecommunication Services at Mountain Home Air Force Base through a sources sought announcement. The procurement will involve providing comprehensive local telecommunications infrastructure, including local access to circuit demarcation points, equipment, wiring, and infrastructure compatible with existing government systems. Potential contractors must provide details about their business, including CAGE code, business type, and small business designations under NAICS 517111. Respondents are asked to specify their proposed contract role (prime contractor, joint venture, etc.) and confirm or challenge the current NAICS code classification. All responses must be submitted via email to 1 Lt Andrew Portz and Jaclyn Fish by Friday, March 7th at 12:00 PM Mountain Time, with the understanding that this is a market research effort and not a formal solicitation.

The pre-solicitation notice does not indicate a specific set-aside designation, and no incumbent contractor details are provided. The telecommunications services will support approximately 10,000 Direct-Inward-Dialing numbers, 4 commercial subscriber lines, and 150 concurrent SIP line capacity, with required 24/7/365 service and 99.9% availability. Contractors must be prepared to manage complex telecommunications infrastructure, including diverse routing capabilities and rapid response to service outages (1-hour response for catastrophic issues, 8-hour restoration for emergency situations). The contract will require contractor personnel to maintain security clearances and complete antiterrorism training. Services will be delivered through the building demarcation point at Building 610, with the government providing 6U of rack space, environmental controls, and power sources. While no specific award value is mentioned, the comprehensive technical requirements suggest a significant and complex telecommunications service contract.
