NOTICE OF INTENT TO ISSUE A SOLE SOURCE TO TELEFONICA DE ESPA�A FOR WIRED TELECOMMUNICATION SERVICES

Description

This is a notice of the Government�s intent to issue a sole source contract to Telefon�ca de Espa�a with a ROM of $3.8M for wired telecommunication services for Naval Station Rota, Spain. The ducting infrastructure and copper cabling installed on Naval Base Rota (C�diz) is owned by and leased from Telefon�ca de Espa�a (Telefon�ca). Over the half century since it was established, Naval Station Rota and the Department of Defense have consistently executed contracts with Telefon�ca that included the installation of a buried conduit systems and associated cable infrastructure with an approximate value of $20M that remained the property of the company. The Government intends to issue this contract on a sole source basis. Any interested party that believes is capable of competing for this contract may contact Keishla Valenzuela (Keishla.a.valenzuela.civ@eu.navy.mil). Your response MUST include a) a capability statement that clearly explains your understanding and ability to perform the requirements described in the draft PWS without a degradation of services; b) a description of your current infrastructure in place to deliver these services; c) a description of your rough implementation plan to deliver these services starting June 2025 and a rough estimate of your initial investment items and associated costs. Any responses that include generic capability statements will not be considered; responses must specifically address the above elements in order to be considered. The Government reserves the right to determine if this requirement will remain a sole-source or if it will be competed.
