About this opportunity

Washington Technology Solutions (WaTech) is seeking Wireline Ethernet or Fixed Wireless Services through Request for Quotation (RFQ) 25-RFQ-033, targeting network infrastructure for various state government facilities across multiple Washington counties and cities. The procurement covers 10 specific site locations serving the Department of Social and Health Services, Department of Licensing, Department of Corrections, and Joint Base Lewis-McChord, with network service requirements ranging from 10M to 100M bandwidth. Mandatory qualifications include vendors having a signed Network Services Agreement (NSA) and either a Wireline Ethernet or Fixed Wireless Technical Addendum. The evaluation criteria involve a complex scoring system with three components: Cost Score, Timeline Score, and Local Loop Score, totaling 100 possible points. Vendors must provide comprehensive pricing details, including non-recurring and monthly recurring costs, with specific requirements for local loop types (Fiber, Fixed Wireless, Copper) receiving different point allocations. The key dates include a pre-proposal conference on May 16, 2025, via Microsoft Teams, proposal responses due by May 28, 2025, and the planned announcement of the Apparently Successful Vendor(s) on June 4, 2025.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The procurement appears open to qualified network service providers with the necessary technical addendums and capabilities to serve state government facilities. While no incumbent vendors are directly listed, the RFQ indicates a comprehensive approach to establishing a new network services contract that will require integration with existing government infrastructure. The cost model evaluation spreadsheet suggests potential contract values covering installation and monthly service costs across the 10 sites, with each location having unique technical requirements and bandwidth needs. The document emphasizes that all unstated costs are assumed to be provided at no additional charge to WaTech, indicating a fixed-price approach to the contract. Vendors must provide detailed technical specifications, including equipment labeling, VLAN assignments, and future upgrade capabilities, suggesting a sophisticated and forward-looking procurement strategy for state network services.
