Description
Washington Technology Solutions (WaTech) is seeking qualified vendors to provide Ethernet wireline or fixed‑wireless network services to a broad set of state sites. Bidders must already have a signed Network Services Agreement (NSA) and the relevant technical addenda with WaTech. Each proposal must include a completed Cost Model (detailing non‑recurring and monthly recurring costs) and a Certificate and Assurances. Evaluation will be based on total cost, installation timeline, and the type of local‑loop technology (fiber, fixed‑wireless, or copper) selected for each site. The contract will be awarded to the highest‑scoring qualified vendor(s) and will be executed after a 90‑day firm‑offer period.
• Scope: Installation and ongoing provision of Ethernet wireline (fiber/copper) or fixed‑wireless services at multiple WaTech locations.
• Mandatory requirements: Existing NSA & appropriate addenda, compliance with guaranteed install intervals, submission of supplemental‑bandwidth pricing, and completion of background checks for all personnel.
• Evaluation: Points for lowest cost (NRC + 24×MRC), shortest install interval, and higher‑valued local‑loop type (fiber = 40 pts, fixed‑wireless = 20 pts, copper = 10 pts).
