- Description
- This requirement will provide essential Long-Distance and Local Telecommunication Services (LDLTS) and features supporting Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana. Site specific equipment connectivity requirements are identified in Appendix 1, along with required features. This requirement will support the installation 24 hours a day/seven days a week/365 days a year (24/7/365). With the Department of War (DoW) mandating military installations move away from legacy Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM) telephony to Internet-Protocol based services, a local telecommunication service (TS) needs to include long-distance but not Defense Switching Network (DSN) services, which are beyond the scope of this action. Due to changes in technology, equipment, security requirements, and processes, it has become evident that the Government should acquire these services in a performance-based manner, consistent with the principles contained in Air Force Instruction (AFI) 63-138 �Acquisition of Services.� These services are considered Information Technology (IT) in accordance with (IAW) Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) 239.74 �Telecommunications Services.� The requirement herein represents the site�s performance-based requirements for long-distance and local �dial-tone� and ancillary services as defined herein. As a part of the new process, the Department of the Air Force (DAF) encourages the Contractor to identify or suggest improvements to existing TS processes, operating procedures, systems, or applications to the Contracting Officer (CO). The Contractor shall provide all labor, tools, facilities, materials, and services needed to perform and provide local access to the designated circuit demarcation point(s) identified in Appendix 1 to this PWS. These services shall include any equipment, wiring, or infrastructure to ensure the Contractor�s proposed solution is compatible with the Government�s current infrastructure without additional Government expense. Access to the local exchange shall also include operator assistance functions. These services shall not include residential or business services for non-Government entities or Government contractors. The Contractor shall follow all Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Public Utility Commission (PUC), DoW, DAF, and industry standards for this requirement. The Contractor shall provide and install transmission equipment and cables for long-distance and local exchange access and transport service circuits to the Government-provided floor space at the Government demarcation location(s) identified in Appendix 1. The Contractor shall connect to Government-provided power connection points and termination frames. The Contractor shall coordinate with the Government Point of Contact (POC) (primary and alternate names, emails, and telephone numbers shall be provided by the Government No Later Than (NLT) five days after contract award) prior to any installation. The Government does not authorize aerial cable installations.
