About this opportunity
The U.S. Consulate General Hermosillo intends to award a sole-source firm-fixed-price purchase order to Total Play Telecomunicaciones, S.A.P.I. de C.V. for 50 Mbps dedicated internet services, with an estimated value of $19,000 and an award date of July 18, 2026.
The justification cites FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source. Total Play is the sole qualified vendor because it has proprietary infrastructure already installed at the consulate compound necessary to provide reliable, technically compliant internet services with expeditious technical support. The alternative ISPs evaluated—MetroCarrier, Telmex, and Axtel—were eliminated due to past performance issues, poor customer service, or operational constraints. Total Play currently provides the secondary OpenNet circuit; the primary dedicated circuit must use a different ISP, and no other Hermosillo-area provider meets the technical requirements. The quote of $19,000 USD is within market limits, validated against a comparable Telmex quote of $20,325 USD. The period of performance is 12 months, from July 18, 2026 through July 17, 2027. Place of performance is the consulate compound in Hermosillo, Mexico. The procurement is conducted under FAR Part 13.106-1(b)(1)(i).
Notice text
The U.S. Consulate General Hermosillo is formally announcing the intent to award a firm-fixed-price purchase order (on a sole source basis) for the services described below:
Intended Recipient:
Total Play Telecomunicaciones, S.A.P.I. de C.V.
Avenida San Jerónimo 252 Piso 6, Col. La Otra Banda, Delegación Coyoacán, C.P. 04519 CDMX Mexico
Intent to sole-Source:
The US Consulate General Hermosillo, Mexico intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price purchase order to TOTAL PLAY TELECOMUNICACIONES for a 12-month period of performance for the acquisition of 50 Mbps dedicated internet services to be provided at the consulate compound. The Contracting Officer has determined that it is in the Government's best interest to sole source this requirement.
Sole Source Justification:
The incumbent contractor is the only ISP with proprietary infrastructure that will provide reliable, technically compliant internet services and expeditious technical support for our current range of circuit vendors. Customer service and technical support have been excellent. Since Total Play has already installed infrastructure necessary for internet services at the Consulate compound, technical steps are reliable and will include less steps to make a new redundant circuit happen.
This circuit must use an ISP different from the one providing the secondary OpenNet circuit.
Therefore, Total Play Telecomunicaciones is the only source in Hermosillo City that can provide the requested Dedicated Internet Services. This requirement will be procured in accordance with the procedures of FAR Part 13.106-1(b)(1)(i).
This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals. For specific questions, please contact Chad Moore, Contracting Officer at: hermogsocontracts@state.gov
Awarded contract 19MX5726P0084 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2026-07-18.
