About this opportunity
The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) is seeking to procure network services through a Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (MAC IDIQ) contract to support the Defense Information Systems Network (DISN) across United States Africa Command (AFRICOM), United States Central Command (CENTCOM), and United States European Command (EUCOM) areas of responsibility. The procurement will be conducted using FAR Part 15 procedures with a Firm-Fixed Price contract type, classified under NAICS 517111 (Wired Telecommunications Carriers). Qualified contractors must demonstrate acceptable technical capability and strong past performance in network services delivery. The evaluation methodology emphasizes technical capability and past performance at the MAC level, with cost and price evaluation deferred to individual task order competitions among all awarded contractors. A formal Request for Proposal is expected to be issued on or about May 8, 2026, and will remain open for 30 to 45 calendar days, with a deadline of June 1, 2026, for proposal submissions.
This opportunity carries no set-aside designation and will replace the current Global Network Services (GNS) contracts, which include eight separate indefinite delivery contracts held by incumbent contractors. The estimated period of performance spans ten years from October 8, 2026, through October 8, 2036, with one ten-year base period. The contract covers commercial-grade telecommunications and network services, with individual task orders to be awarded competitively among all MAC IDIQ contractors. While specific budget values are not disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, the ten-year performance period and multi-command scope indicate a substantial, strategic-level procurement supporting critical Department of Defense network infrastructure across three major geographic combatant commands.
