Start a dedicated service to provide, install, maintain a DISN 45MBPS PT-PT Layer 2 Ethernet Circuit between DISA Defense Enterprise Commuting Center (DECC), Combined Joint Operation Center, Jordan and The US Embassy in Cairo, Egypt.

The Defense Information Systems Agency seeks to procure the provision, installation, and maintenance of a dedicated 45Mbps point-to-point Layer 2 Ethernet circuit between its Defense Enterprise Computing Center in Jordan and the U.S. Embassy in Cairo, Egypt. Offerors must have an existing DITCO Basic Agreement and network operations center located in the circuit path countries operating 24/7 in English. The lowest priced technically acceptable quote will be evaluated first based on technical requirements, testing standards, and additional provisions restricting covered materials from certain countries. Quotes are due by May 29, 2021 with service starting August 12, 2021.

There is no set-aside designation. The place of performance is Cairo, Egypt. Offerors must demonstrate the ability to provide 24/7 circuit monitoring, maintenance, and restoration within one hour of an outage. Testing will validate throughput, latency within and between countries, burstability, and frame loss according to RFC 2544 over a 72 hour period. Monthly uptime of 99.95% or greater, latency less than 10ms, packet loss less than 1%, and jitter less than 2ms are required. Circuit diagrams and as-built drawings must be submitted electronically in acceptable formats.
