About this opportunity
Washington Technology Solutions (WaTech) has issued Request for Quotation (RFQ) #25-RFQ-021 seeking Broadband Internet Service Provider (ISP) services for multiple jurisdictions across Washington state, including counties such as Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima. The procurement targets comprehensive broadband connectivity services, with vendors required to have a pre-existing Master Services Agreement (MSA) and Broadband ISP Technical Addendum with WaTech to participate. The RFQ mandates detailed cost submissions through a specific Cost Model (Appendix A), requiring vendors to provide pricing for non-recurring and monthly recurring charges for service delivery. Evaluation criteria will be based on a combined scoring methodology that considers both cost (90 points) and installation timeline (10 points), with the highest total score per site determining the successful vendor(s). Key dates include a pre-proposal conference on January 24, 2025, from 10:30-11:00am via Microsoft Teams, proposal responses due by January 29, 2025, and an anticipated Apparently Successful Vendor announcement on February 5, 2025, with the earliest Statement of Work issuance date of February 12, 2025.
The RFQ does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Vendor pricing will constitute a firm offer for 90 days following the Apparently Successful Vendor announcement, with potential extension to 180 days if mutually agreed. The procurement appears focused on specific site requirements, with an example detailed for the DOLC3103 Edmonds Auto License & Service location requiring 10MB upload and 20MB download speeds with a 45-day installation timeline. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive evaluation model suggests WaTech is seeking competitive, flexible broadband solutions across diverse Washington state locations. The RFQ reserves the right for WaTech to request "best and final offers" in the event of exact scoring ties, indicating a rigorous and comprehensive vendor selection process. Vendors will need to provide detailed technical and cost information, demonstrating their capability to meet the state's broadband connectivity requirements across multiple jurisdictions.
