The solicitation sets a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) goal of at least 3% of all contracts by dollar value, and SDVOSB bidders must submit U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs certification documentation.

The itemized quote covers 27 units each of single-mode duplex LC/LC fiber jumper cables, 10GBASE-LR SFP+ transceiver modules, and 48-port Gigabit PoE switches with four 10G SFP+ ports. Bidders may submit products of equal specifications and quality subject to CDOC approval. Pricing must be all-inclusive, with no shipping, surcharges, or taxes payable by CDOC.

The contract is a one-time purchase with an anticipated term of up to five years, renewable for four additional one-year periods at CDOC's sole discretion and contingent on appropriated funds. Pricing remains firm during the initial term. On renewal, CDOC may consider an annual increase not to exceed 2.5% per fiscal year, subject to mutual agreement. Award goes to the responsible bidder whose acceptable quote is most advantageous to CDOC, with price and cost as the primary factors; sample quality and lead time may also be evaluated.
