The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) is seeking quotes for a 10GB commercial telecommunications circuit to be established within Europe. This is an opportunity for telecommunication providers to offer essential services to a key government agency.
The solicitation number for this Request for Quotation (RFQ) is HC102126QA100. It is an unrestricted requirement, meaning it is open to all eligible businesses, not just small businesses.
Key dates and what happens at the deadline
This solicitation was published on July 20, 2026. The deadline for submitting quotes is August 19, 2026, at 6:00 AM ET. All offers must be submitted by this time.
This announcement serves as the only solicitation; a separate written solicitation will not be issued. Offers are being requested directly through this process.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is suitable for telecommunication providers (TPs) with experience in establishing and maintaining 10GB commercial circuits, particularly within Europe. Bidders must be registered under the appropriate NAICS codes.
Crucially, TPs must have a current DITCO Basic Agreement (BA) signed by both the Government and the Contractor before they can submit any quotes. This is a mandatory prerequisite.
How to respond to this solicitation
To access the solicitation attachments, you must provide your Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) or CAGE code. Requests without this identifying information will be rejected. The attachments contain the full instructions and evaluation criteria.
Pricing must clearly show Monthly Recurring Charges (MRC), Non-Recurring Charges (NRC), and any applicable tiered pricing for additional service months. The evaluation will use a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection process.
Tips for preparing a competitive response
Ensure your company's NAICS registration is current and accurate, and that you have a valid UEI or CAGE code ready for verification. Confirm your DITCO Basic Agreement is current and fully executed before attempting to submit a quote.
Carefully review all attached solicitation documents, especially the DITCO Additional Telecommunications Text (DATT), for specific instructions and evaluation criteria. Since this is an LPTA award, focus on providing a technically compliant solution at the most competitive price. Double-check all pricing components (MRC, NRC, tiered pricing) for clarity and accuracy.
