Alternative Broadband/LTE Internet Provisioning

The contract seeks provision and installation of alternative high-speed internet solutions including fiber, LTE, or fixed wireless technologies in areas where Starlink is not available, ensuring minimum bandwidth requirements are met to support reliable connectivity. The solution must be deployed specifically at the designated place of performance in Window Rock, Arizona, 86515, and must comply with all technical and performance standards necessary for operational use by federal entities. The work is scoped as a subcontract under a Buy Indian Set-Aside, meaning only qualified Native American-owned businesses are eligible to respond, aligning with Department of Health and Human Services’ Indian Health Services priorities. The North American Industry Classification System code 517911 confirms the focus on other telecommunications services, excluding satellite-based offerings like Starlink that are explicitly excluded. Proposals must be submitted by the response deadline of July 20, 2026, at 1:30 PM Eastern Time, following issuance of the solicitation on July 7, 2026. The contracting activity is managed by the Program Support Center Acquisition Management Service under the Department of Health and Human Services, with no specified point of contact listed in the public data. The contract is not tied to a specific solicitation number, and the award process will prioritize vendors capable of delivering proven, scalable broadband alternatives that meet federal standards for reliability and speed. All installations must be performed in compliance with tribal and federal regulations applicable to infrastructure deployment in the Window Rock area.
