What DISA is buying and why it matters
The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) needs a 100 MB commercial internet circuit for use within Europe. This is an opportunity for telecommunication providers to offer essential network services to the Department of Defense.
The solicitation is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for commercial products or services, prepared under FAR Part 12. This announcement serves as the complete solicitation; no separate written solicitation will be issued.
Key dates and what happens at the deadline
This solicitation was published on July 08, 2026. The deadline for submitting quotes is August 07, 2026, at 6:00 AM ET. All offers must be submitted by this time.
The evaluation process will use the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) method. This means the contract will likely be awarded to the technically acceptable offer with the lowest price.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is specifically for telecommunication providers (TPs) who have a current DITCO Basic Agreement (BA) signed by both the Government and the Contractor. If you do not have this agreement, you cannot submit a quote.
The acquisition is not set-aside for small business concerns. Vendors must be registered under the appropriate NAICS codes to access solicitation attachments.
How to respond to this solicitation
To access the full solicitation details, you must request access. Your access request must include your UEI or CAGE code for verification. Requests without this information will be rejected.
Once you have access, ensure your quoted prices clearly identify the Monthly Recurring Charge (MRC), Non-Recurring Charge (NRC), and any tiered pricing for additional service months. Comply with all terms and conditions outlined in the attached solicitation and the DITCO Additional Telecommunications Text (DATT).
Practical tips for a competitive response
Given the LPTA evaluation method, focus on providing the most competitive pricing while ensuring your technical proposal fully meets all requirements. Any deviation from the technical specifications could lead to your offer being deemed unacceptable.
Carefully review all provisions and clauses incorporated by reference, as well as any deviations. These can be accessed electronically. Ensure your proposal addresses all aspects of the requested service date and acceptance criteria as outlined in the solicitation attachments.
