New Domain Controllers / Network Redesign

The Texas State Board of Public Accountancy (TSBPA) is soliciting proposals for new domain controllers and a network redesign with a due date of February 20, 2026. The issuing body has posted a Statement of Work, justification, and a vendor quote but no formal RFP notice with extended deadlines or pre-bid activity.

The scope encompasses two primary components: building two redundant domain controllers (one primary, one secondary) to handle Active Directory, DNS, and DHCP functions, and conducting a comprehensive network redesign. Domain controller work includes installing and configuring all required services that operated prior to the agency's primary domain controller failure, removing the current primary controller from service, and making downstream configuration changes. Network redesign activities include reviewing and analyzing the current TSBPA environment, documenting existing connections and configurations, identifying infrastructure risks, and developing a new design incorporating the redundant domain controllers and a planned Veeam backup solution. The project emphasizes detailed design review sessions with stakeholder networking staff, complete implementation and deployment planning, advance staging of changes, detailed migration planning with estimated timeframes and rollback procedures, and final documentation and mapping of the new network environment. Out-of-scope work explicitly excludes the Texas Board of Accountancy Examiners (TBAE) agency network and long-term support of the new network environment.

The source materials do not specify the estimated contract value, budget range, contract term, place of performance, incumbent contractor, evaluation criteria, set-asides or preference programs, required certifications, timeline for questions or award, or any pre-bid meeting or site visit. The documents provided are the Statement of Work, a justification document, and a vendor quote, but lack a formal solicitation notice with response instructions, eligibility requirements, or competitive procurement terms.
