D--PCLOB EIS Solutions

The contract pertains to the procurement of telecommunications services for the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board (PCLOB) under a sole-source award to AT&T, justified under FAR 16.505(b)(2) due to unique and non-replicable infrastructure dependencies. The services include access arrangements, audio conferencing, cable and wiring, circuit switched voice, Ethernet transport, internet protocol services, managed trusted internet protocol service (MTIPS), virtual private network, and mobile wireless services, delivered at PCLOB’s headquarters in Washington, DC, and its data center in Reston, VA. The performance period is five years, structured as one base year with four optional one-year periods, commencing July 4, 2026. The award is made under the GSA Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract, leveraging pre-negotiated fair and reasonable pricing. The justification emphasizes that transitioning to another provider would pose unacceptable mission risk due to severe physical constraints, including saturated conduits, insufficient rack space, and limited power availability, making infrastructure duplication both impractical and cost-prohibitive without operational disruption. No competitive solicitation was conducted, and no formal evaluation factors, inspection criteria, or delivery specifications are outlined, as the acquisition is non-competitive by nature. The contract does not include detailed packaging, marking, or preservation requirements, as it is service-based and not tied to physical deliverables. No payment office details, accounting lines (TAS/ACRN), or invoicing methods are specified, though administration is handled by the Department of the Interior’s Interior Business Center in Herndon, VA, on behalf of PCLOB. Point of contact for the procurement is Candy Mott-Harris, and the contract was posted on SAM.gov on June 26, 2026, with a proposed start date of July 4, 2026. There is no evidence of offeror representations, certifications, or socioeconomic status disclosures, as the sole-source nature of the award bypasses typical offeror submission requirements. Option exercise is governed by FAR 52.217-8, and the contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price, severable services agreement under the EIS IDIQ vehicle, with no estimated total value disclosed.
