60--Relocation of Verizon Demarcation Point

The 177th Fighter Wing is seeking to award a single, firm fixed-price contract to Verizon for the relocation of the demarcation point between Buildings 229 and 407 at 11 US Hwy No 9, Marmora, NJ. This project involves installing fiber optic cable from Verizon’s existing facility through the manhole system to Building 407. The solicitation is being conducted as a sole source procurement under legal authorities allowing other than full and open competition, given Verizon’s status as the sole local exchange carrier responsible for maintaining telephone and data circuits in this area. Interested and qualified sources must submit their responses by 2:00 PM Eastern Time on September 6, 2013, via email to the designated contracting specialist, with no telephone inquiries permitted. The government retains the discretion to determine whether to compete the contract based on the responses received. The work is classified under NAICS code 517110, and the contracting office is located in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey. This procurement supports non-personal services related to telecommunications infrastructure improvements at a Department of Defense facility.
