About this opportunity

Washington Technology Solutions (WaTech) is conducting a Request for Quotation (RFQ) 26-RFQ-001 for Wireline Ethernet or Fixed Wireless Services across multiple counties and cities in Washington state, including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, Yakima, and numerous other jurisdictions. The procurement seeks network connectivity services with specific requirements for telecommunications infrastructure, focusing on individual site circuit pricing and network installations. Mandatory qualifications include vendors having a signed Network Services Agreement (NSA) and applicable Technical Addendum. The evaluation criteria will use a complex scoring model with a maximum of 100 points, considering cost, timeline, and local loop type, with preferences for fiber (40 points), wireless (20 points), and copper (10 points). Key deliverables include detailed cost information, installation intervals, and supplemental bandwidth options for each proposed site. A pre-proposal conference is scheduled for July 11, 2025, via Microsoft Teams, with proposal responses due by July 23, 2025. Vendors must provide non-recurring costs (NRC) and monthly recurring costs (MRC) for different bandwidth levels, with evaluation based on a 24-month base price calculation.

The solicitation does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. WaTech reserves the right to award the contract to one or multiple contractors, with the potential for requesting a "best and final offer" in case of tied scores. The procurement covers specific sites, including an example location at 1500 Lincoln Ave SW in Olympia and a Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) site at 1651 S Market Blvd in Chehalis. While specific budget ranges are not directly stated, the cost model includes detailed pricing structures for 10M and 100M bandwidth options. The solicitation emphasizes that any costs not included in the evaluation model are assumed to be provided at no additional charge to WaTech. Vendors must provide comprehensive documentation, including site-specific details and installation specifications. The procurement appears to be seeking flexible, scalable network connectivity solutions that can potentially support future infrastructure upgrades across various Washington state facilities.
