Description

The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) through its DITCO‑Europe program is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) to gather market data on the availability and cost of a 10 Gb commercial Ethernet fiber lease with LC connectors spanning Southwest Asia to Europe. This RFI is purely for market research; it does not constitute a solicitation for a contract and the Government will not pay for responses. The information collected will help DISA shape future acquisition strategies for OCONUS (Outside Contiguous United States) telecommunications services. • Scope: 10 Gb Ethernet fiber pair, LC termination, commercial lease • Route: Southwest Asia (SWA) to Europe • Purpose: Market research for future DISA requirements, no commitment to award • No submission deadline, pre‑bid meeting, or site visit required • Responders bear all costs; no payment from the Government for the RFI response.

Budget estimate

$5,000,000 – $20,000,000

Although the RFI itself carries no monetary award, the eventual contract for a 10 Gb trans‑regional fiber lease could be substantial. Based on typical commercial fiber lease rates for long‑haul international routes (often $0.10–$0.30 per Mbps per month), a 10 Gb pipe could run $10 M–$30 M annually. Assuming a multi‑year lease (e.g., 3‑5 years), the total contract value might range from $30 M to $150 M. For the purpose of estimating the client’s potential earnings, a conservative low‑end estimate of $5 M and a high‑end estimate of $20 M are provided, reflecting possible variations in lease length, capacity, and ancillary services.
