Tips for Winning Telecommunications Contracts in Kansas
- ✓GSA's Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) contract is the primary vehicle for federal telecom: a 15-year, multi-award IDIQ that replaced Networx and covers voice, data, video, and managed services across all agencies. The window for new EIS primes has closed, so subcontracting with an EIS prime is the path for smaller firms.
- ✓E-Rate (Universal Service Fund) provides $4+ billion annually for school and library broadband. E-Rate applications follow USAC's competitive bidding process: monitor the USAC portal for Form 470 postings.
- ✓FirstNet is building a nationwide public safety broadband network. Subcontracting opportunities through AT&T (the FirstNet builder) are available for tower construction, fiber deployment, and network equipment installation.
Telecommunications RFP FAQ
What is the GSA EIS contract and how do I participate?
Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) is GSA's $50 billion, 15-year government-wide contract for telecommunications and IT infrastructure services. It covers voice, data, video, managed network, and cloud services. There are currently about 10 prime contractors on EIS. New vendors can participate by subcontracting with EIS primes or bidding on agency-specific task orders that allow outside competition.
How does E-Rate funding create telecom opportunities?
E-Rate provides annual discounts of 20-90% on eligible telecommunications and internet services for schools and libraries. Schools post Form 470 (Request for Services) on the USAC portal, then vendors respond with bids. Eligible services include broadband, Wi-Fi equipment, fiber construction, and managed network services. The program distributes over $4 billion annually.
What is FirstNet and how can vendors participate?
FirstNet is a federally mandated nationwide broadband network for first responders, managed by the First Responder Network Authority and built by AT&T. Vendors participate primarily by subcontracting with AT&T for cell tower construction, fiber deployment, equipment installation, and network maintenance. The network covers all 50 states and territories.
What certifications help win government telecom contracts?
Key certifications include FCC licensing for spectrum-related work, manufacturer certifications (Cisco, Juniper, etc.) for network equipment, BICSI certification for structured cabling, and security clearances for DOD/intelligence community telecom work. For E-Rate, USAC requires vendors to have a Service Provider Identification Number (SPIN).
