About this opportunity

Lone Star College (LSC), a public community college system located in Texas, is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) for leased lit fiber and leased dark fiber services to provide wide area network (WAN) services as well as backup/redundant services to its district. The RFP, identified as RFP 957 Dark Fiber Lease, covers a 3-year contract term with an option to renew for two additional years. LSC is seeking proposals for two service options: a fully managed, leased lit fiber solution and a leased dark fiber solution that includes fiber maintenance. The RFP outlines detailed requirements for dedicated symmetrical transport bandwidth, scalability, service level agreements, and maintenance obligations. Respondents may propose one, all, or any combination of the options. The deadline for proposal submission is Wednesday, October 9, 2024 at 3:00 PM Central Standard Time. Evaluation criteria include purchase price, vendor reputation and quality of goods/services, ability to meet LSC's needs, past relationship with the college, impact on historically underutilized business (HUB) compliance, long-term cost, and the vendor's location and workforce size in Texas.

LSC encourages the use of HUB and minority-owned businesses as subcontractors and provides details on required HUB compliance reporting. Respondents are asked to provide information on their supplier diversity initiatives. While no specific funding sources or budget ranges are provided, the RFP emphasizes that pricing must be held firm for the term of the agreement, and LSC reserves the right to refuse any rate increases deemed unreasonable. The incumbent vendor, if any, is not specified in the RFP documents.
