Network Plug-and-Play (PnP) Zero-Touch Provisioning Implementation

The contract seeks the implementation of automated provisioning through Cisco Network Plug-and-Play to establish a zero-touch deployment system for network devices, eliminating manual configuration and accelerating network expansion. This initiative will streamline the onboarding of routers, switches, and other infrastructure equipment by enabling them to automatically connect to a central management system, download configuration profiles, and initialize with pre-approved settings upon power-up. The work is structured as a subcontract under NAICS code 541512, targeting IT services related to systems design and integration, and is being managed by the Chickasaw Nation for deployment across their network infrastructure. The solicitation is open with a strict response deadline of July 31, 2026, and is posted on the Chickasaw Nation’s business network portal. There is no specified set-aside classification, and no point of contact or physical location details are provided, indicating that performance may be remote or distributed. The focus is on delivering a scalable, secure, and reliable automated provisioning framework that reduces human error and operational overhead, with all deployment activities expected to align with industry best practices for network automation and Cisco PnP standards.
