About this opportunity
The U.S. Coast Guard intends to award a sole-source contract to Verizon Business Network Services LLC for support and sustainment of legacy enterprise-wide data transport connectivity on a bridge basis, with a base year period of six months and award date of May 8, 2026.
The justification cites RFO 6.103-1(c)(2)(ii), only one responsible source, arguing that Verizon is the sole vendor capable of supporting these legacy services due to the network's unique architecture, configuration, and proprietary management specific to Verizon's infrastructure. The services cover Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM) data and Broadband Internet circuits supporting Rescue 21, Vessel Traffic Service, Communication Services Network, and miscellaneous circuits within the Coast Guard's wide-area network. The requirement exists because the Coast Guard's current GSA Networx Universal task order with Verizon terminates May 31, 2026, and a competitively awarded follow-on to AT&T (awarded in 2020) has experienced transition delays that will not be completed by the contract termination date. The contracting officer will evaluate pricing as fair and reasonable based on historical comparisons prior to award. The justification was approved by the Acting HCA on May 7, 2026. Funding is through Fiscal Year 2026 Operations and Support Funds. NAICS 51711; PSC DG10.
Notice text
This requirement is to procure support and sustainment of services for legacy enterprisewide data transport connectivity and associated services to include Rescue 21 (R21), Vessel Traffic Service (VTS), Communication Services Network (CSN) and Miscellaneous circuits. The incumbent contractor, Verizon, will continue to maintain the current state of legacy enterprise-wide data transport connectivity and associated services until the services are transitioned to the follow-on task order. This includes point-to-point Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM) data and Broadband Internet circuits, enabling connectivity to the USCG’s widearea network, maintaining existing configurations, and disconnecting circuits upon notification.
Awarded contract 70Z07926CISD30002 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2026-05-08.
