About this opportunity

This solicitation from the Defense Information Systems Agency seeks proposals for an urgent start 50 Mbps Ethernet Layer 2 circuit with the capability to support jumbo frames up to 9000 MTU between network access points in Thumrait, Oman and Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar. The circuit must be engineered and provisioned with fully diverse physical paths as a separate requirement under solicitation HC102120QA062/CCSD F5180 to ensure network survivability and prevent single points of failure. Proposals are due by April 2, 2020 and the winning vendor will be selected based on the lowest combined life cycle cost and technical acceptability of their proposals for both requirements.

There is no set-aside designation. The place of performance is Herndon, Virginia and proposals must include all commercial equipment to be used at the interfaces with the government network. While no award values are specified, the task orders for both solicitations will be awarded to a single vendor. Failure to submit proposals for both efforts will invalidate proposals. Compliance with the requirement for fully diverse physical routing between the access points is critical to meeting the agency's network survivability objectives.

This requirement must be engineered and provisioned totally diverse end to end to the government's Service Delivery Points (SDP's) from HC102120QA062 / CCSD F5180; the physical paths are totally separate including man holes, conduit, (Central office locations), and fiber builds.There shall not be any single point of failure between the two circuits other than the demarc building at Thumrait, Oman. This circuit shall remain active if the circuit requested under HC102120QA062 /CCSD F5180 is affected by a commercial path outage.

As a minimum, they must have 50 meters physical separation. The vendor must list all commercial equipment that the TP or subcontractor will use at the point of interface with the government's network.

Task orders for both solicitations (HC102120QA061 and HC102120QA062 will be awarded to one vendor.
