Description

The provider must supply the fiber cabling, pathways, conduit, Ethernet equipment, construction to connect sites, and installation and initial configuration. The proposal must separately identify recurring and nonrecurring costs, eligible and ineligible E-Rate charges, taxes, fees, and any other costs; the provider must support E-Rate SPI billing and retain ownership of the fiber, conduit, and equipment. The network will transition in stages: the initial configuration is to be ready by July 1, 2027, a new school site is to be added by July 1, 2028, and the final network configuration and new head end are expected by July 1, 2029. The provider must monitor the network continuously, give advance notice of planned outages, notify the district promptly of unexpected outages, and meet specified repair and ticket-resolution targets. Proposals must address the service design, network diagram, monitoring, transition and outage plans, support qualifications and escalation procedures, E-Rate eligibility, pricing, and three school-system references. The requested term is 60 months, with two optional 12-month extensions.
