About this opportunity
The City of Columbus is requesting proposals for a Best Value Procurement (BVP) indefinite-quantity Universal Term Contract for fiber optic cable maintenance and restoration services, with proposals due August 20, 2026. This procurement carries an unusually compressed timeline: specification questions were due August 3, 2026, and responses posted August 6, 2026; the proposal deadline is August 20, 2026.
The scope covers routine cable maintenance and restoration services for the City of Columbus fiber optic network, including labor, parts, materials, and supplies. The contract term is three years from execution with two additional one-year extension options available.
The City will conduct a best-value evaluation. The RFP document does not specify estimated contract value, incumbent contractor, evaluation criteria weighting, or pricing terms. Vendors must access complete bid details, submission procedures, technical specifications, and evaluation criteria through the City of Columbus Vendor Services portal at https://columbus.bonfirehub.com/projectDrafts/245994/.
The compressed question cycle (August 3 due, August 6 response) and one-day proposal deadline (August 20) suggest this may be a re-solicitation or competitive renewal of an existing contract. Vendors pursuing this opportunity should confirm eligibility and submission format immediately through the Vendor Services portal, as the due date is imminent.
