About this opportunity

The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) to gather industry insights for potential commercial leased and dark fiber services across the Southwest Asia and European Areas of Responsibility (AORs). This pre-solicitation notice, issued by the Defense Information Technology Contracting Organization in Stuttgart, Germany, is designed to assist in developing and planning a future requirement for telecommunications infrastructure. The RFI specifically targets wired telecommunications carriers with expertise in network satellite communications and telecom access services, as indicated by the NAICS 517111 and PSC DG11 classifications. Currently, this is an information-gathering stage, and no formal solicitation or Request for Proposals (RFP) has been released. Interested industry participants are advised that the response deadline is October 30, 2023, providing approximately four weeks for comprehensive feedback.

The pre-solicitation notice does not indicate any specific set-aside designations, meaning the opportunity appears open to all qualified contractors. No incumbent contractors or specific award values were explicitly mentioned in the notice. The geographic scope of the potential contract spans multiple regions, including Southwest Asia and European territories, suggesting a complex and potentially substantial telecommunications infrastructure project. While precise quantities of services or exact contract timelines are not specified, the RFI implies DISA is seeking comprehensive fiber optic and leased communication service solutions to support defense telecommunications needs. The involvement of the Defense Information Systems Agency suggests this could be a significant strategic procurement with potential long-term implications for military communication networks.
