About this opportunity

Washington Technology Solutions (WaTech) has issued Request for Quotation #25-RFQ-022 for Wireline Ethernet or Fixed Wireless Services, targeting multiple counties and jurisdictions across Washington state, including but not limited to Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties. The procurement seeks telecommunications service providers capable of delivering comprehensive network connectivity solutions, with specific requirements for individual end site circuit price quotations and detailed service installations. Vendors must possess a signed Master Services Agreement (MSA) and either a Wireline Ethernet or Fixed Wireless Technical Addendum to participate in the solicitation. The evaluation framework includes a sophisticated scoring model with three primary components: Cost Score (calculated using non-recurring costs plus 24 months of monthly recurring costs), Timeline Score (based on installation interval), and Local Loop Score (40 points for fiber, 20 points for fixed wireless, 10 points for copper). Key submission dates include a pre-proposal conference on February 7, 2025, from 9:00-9:30 AM via Microsoft Teams, with proposal responses due by February 19, 2025, at 12:00 PM Olympia time, and an anticipated announcement of successful vendor(s) on February 26, 2025.

The solicitation does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Pricing requirements mandate that contractors include all costs associated with service delivery, encompassing cabling, conduit, fiber, entrance facilities, equipment, permits, and labor, excluding taxes. The procurement covers multiple service locations, with the provided documentation specifically highlighting examples like the Department of Licensing facility in Othello, Washington. Contractors must provide supplemental bandwidth pricing options for potential future upgrades and maintain pricing offer validity for 90 days following the announcement of the apparently successful vendor. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive cost model suggests a potentially significant investment in telecommunications infrastructure across various Washington state jurisdictions. The earliest expected Statement of Work issuance date is March 5, 2025, indicating a complex procurement process with detailed technical and financial evaluation criteria.
