About this opportunity
Washington Technology Solutions (WaTech) is conducting a Request for Quotation (RFQ) 26-RFQ-003 for Wireline Ethernet or Fixed Wireless Services targeting multiple Washington counties including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima. The procurement seeks telecommunications providers capable of delivering network connectivity services with specific technical requirements across 12 active state agency sites. Vendors must possess a National Security Agency (NSA) agreement and applicable addenda to be eligible for bidding. The solicitation requires providers to support network installations with bandwidth requirements ranging from 10M to 1000M, with a 150-day installation interval and complex site-specific handoff requirements. Evaluation criteria include detailed scoring for local loop types, with Fiber receiving 40 points, Wireless 20 points, and Copper 10 points, and vendors must provide both Monthly Recurring Cost (MRC) and Non-Recurring Cost (NRC) pricing. The RFQ was posted on July 30, 2025, with proposals due by August 20, 2025, and full documentation available on WaTech's procurement announcements website.
The solicitation does not explicitly mention set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The cost model suggests a comprehensive procurement covering diverse state agency locations, including facilities for the Department of Corrections, Department of Social and Health Services, Department of Labor and Industries, and Washington State Department of Agriculture. Vendors must be prepared to navigate complex site access requirements, potentially undergo background checks for secure facilities, and demonstrate technical flexibility to support future network upgrades. While specific budget ranges are not directly stated, the detailed cost model and multi-site requirements indicate a potentially significant contract value. The procurement emphasizes technical capabilities, security compliance, and the ability to meet precise networking needs across varied Washington state locations, with vendors required to support multi-port/multi-VLAN configurations and adhere to strict installation and communication protocols.
