Description

The 142nd Wing and the 116th Air Control Squadron (ACS) intend to issue a sole-source award for the installation and maintenance of new telephone circuits to their respective units. These new circuits will transition the previous service to an IP-based circuit. The new service will be a 10M/10M port/access circuit allowing 125 concurrent calls, will include 2,000 direct inward dials (DID), and will port over current phone numbers to new service. The 142nd and 116th currently utilize legacy Avaya PBX systems. These outdated systems will require equipment to perform the primary rate interface (PRI) / time division multiplex (TDM) hand-off from the new IP based circuit. Research has shown that CenturyLink (Lumen) has been identified as the sole provider of commercial telephone service. Service areas are called �study areas� as defined at https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-47/chapter-I/subchapter-B/part-54 ecfr.gov title 47, chapter I, subchapter b, part 54.207(a).� The term service area means a geographic area established by a state commission for the purpose of determining universal service obligations and support mechanisms. A service area defines the overall area for which the carrier shall receive support from federal universal service support mechanisms. Service/study areas identifying CenturyLink (Lumen) as the provider in the required locations can be found at this link: https://www.fcc.gov/reports-research/maps/study-area-boundaries/ � CenturyLink (Lumen) is qualified to furnish and install equipment suitable for the Government�s use, porting the existing telephone numbers, and providing local telephone services to the 142nd and 116th. In accordance with (IAW) FAR 13.106-3(b)(3)(i), solicitations may be limited to one source if the Contracting Officer determines that only one source is reasonably available. Consideration of any responses resulting from this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Any interested party that believes it is capable of meeting the requirement described herein may identify themselves and must provide evidence of their capability to fulfill the requirement being requested no later than (NLT) the time and date annotated above to the listed POCs.
