About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Reserve Command has issued a Special Notice for a sole source contract to replace existing local telecommunication services (LTS) and long-distance (LD) infrastructure. The notice pertains to a contract with AT&T Enterprises, LLC for managed SIP trunks that will migrate current low-speed time-division multiplexed (LSTDM) circuits to session initiation protocol (SIP) circuits at March Air Reserve Base. The contract will support continuous telecommunications connectivity 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and 365 days a year. This sole source procurement is specifically targeted at replacing and upgrading the base's telecommunications infrastructure with a comprehensive service solution. The total estimated contract value is $479,345.10, covering a base period of 11 months and 8 days, with potential for four additional 12-month option periods.
The primary objective of this Special Notice is to establish a modernized telecommunications infrastructure using AT&T's existing copper infrastructure, which minimizes additional investment and reduces implementation costs. Market research validated AT&T as the most cost-effective provider, with the company agreeing to waive installation fees for two new fiber-optic PRI circuits and reducing total circuits from six copper to two fiber-optic with a redundant backup system. Contractors should note the opportunity is a sole source procurement, meaning only AT&T is eligible to perform the work. The contract will provide local circuit access, including equipment, wiring, and infrastructure, while adhering to FCC, Public Utility Commission, and Department of Defense regulations. Funding for the project will come from FY2025 Air Force Reserve Command Operations & Maintenance appropriations. The contract performance period is scheduled from 23 May 2025 through 30 April 2030, with interested parties required to respond by the May 7, 2025 deadline.
