Description
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is seeking to consolidate its requirements for Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) II Managed Services. The goal is to transition from legacy telecommunications and IT infrastructure to a modernized EIS-II framework. The FCC aims to achieve cost savings, improved efficiency, reduced acquisition lead time, and enhanced performance. The consolidation will include services such as Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN), Unified Communications Services (UCS), Managed Network Services (MNS), and Managed Security Services (MSS).
• The FCC conducted market research and determined that the GSA Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) contract is the best vehicle to support its modernization goals.
• The EIS contract will provide a single task order for the consolidated services.
• The FCC expects to achieve cost savings of approximately $14.3 million over the life of the EIS II contract.
• The consolidation will also improve service quality, reduce acquisition cycle times, and enhance cybersecurity.
