This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation. Quotes are being requested, and a written solicitation will not be issued. Quotes shall reference DJF-15-0700-0015022. This Request for Quote (RFQ) document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-81 effective April 10, 2015. This notice will be distributed solely through the General Services Administration's Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) Website ( www.fedbizopps.gov ). Interested parties are responsible for monitoring the FBO site to ensure they have the most up-to-date information about this acquisition. No partial quotes will be considered. No partial awards will be made. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to award a firm-fixed-price contract for business internet and cable for its Operational Response Center in Fredericksburg, VA. The intent is to award a 12 month base contract with four (4) 1-year option periods. Background : The FBI's Technical Hazards Response Unit (THRU) and Emergency Response Team Unit (ERTU) provide immediate response to crisis locations throughout the world. ERTU and THRU have located their operations in an offsite Operational Response Center (ORC) located at 1000 Falls Run Drive, in Fredericksburg, Virginia. This facility requires business internet and video services to support the Laboratory Division, Forensic Response Section (LD/FRS) of the FBI. This site serves as the COOP location for the Laboratory Division and requires this referenced connectivity. Nearly 100 full-time FBI personnel and contract staff are assigned to the ORC. These employees are required to access unclassified internet for operational response, procurement, paying vendors, and accessing unclassified e-mails from various Federal State and Local agencies, vendors, educational organizations, communications with FBI and OGA staff and industry working groups. ERTU and THRU also utilize these required services for mission planning and systems that run on business internet, which are critical to operations. THRU/ ERTU staff also need access to real-time news, weather and special event information for mission planning, evidence transport missions and situational awareness. **Notice: Satellite television and internet services are specifically excluded from consideration for this requirement due to the lack of consistent service in weather extremes (rain, snow, etc.). The services requested support Laboratory Division COOP/COG activities and require uninterrupted service, something that satellite television and internet cannot provide.
