The procurement involves the acquisition of two Extreme Networks 10302 Compatible 10GBASE-LR SFP+ 1310nm 10km DOM Duplex LC/UPC SMF Optical Transceiver Modules. The solicitation explicitly prohibits any product substitutions and requires vendors to include shipping costs to 420 Hackberry Lane, Tuscaloosa, AL 35486. Vendors must price the shipping line item, with an option to indicate free shipping by entering $0.00 if applicable. The contract opportunity was posted on January 22, 2025, with a response deadline of January 27, 2025, providing a short five-day window for potential bidders to submit their proposals. The primary objective appears to be procuring specialized network communication equipment with precise technical specifications. Evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the provided documentation.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on vendor participation were mentioned in the contract opportunity details. The solicitation does not indicate preferences for disadvantaged enterprises or small businesses. Furthermore, no information was provided about incumbent vendors, existing technological infrastructure, or integration requirements. The documentation also lacks specific details about potential award values or budget ranges for this procurement. While the contract is associated with Wilcox County, the delivery address is in Tuscaloosa, suggesting potential broader regional applicability. The focused nature of the procurement—two specific fiber optic transceiver modules with exact specifications—implies a targeted, potentially low-value contract aimed at meeting specific technical networking needs.
