Solicitation # RFI 2027-015

The State of New Hampshire Department of Information Technology issued Request for Information RFI 2027-015 to conduct market research for Wide Area Network transport, connectivity, internet, and telephony services. The initiative aims to gather industry insights on modern architectural approaches to support over 430 distributed locations, including head-end, core facilities, and remote agency sites. The scope encompasses the design, installation, and ongoing support of various delivery frameworks such as MPLS, SD-WAN, Carrier Ethernet, fiber, 5G/LTE, satellite, and hybrid WAN architectures, as well as high-speed broadband services. Technical requirements emphasize the use of Equal Cost Multi-Path routing for unclassified traffic and the maintenance of SIP connectivity standards. As this is a sources-sought RFI, it is not intended to result in an immediate contract, and detailed cost figures are not required. However, the state has indicated that future evaluations will prioritize pricing transparency, preferring separate PMO or advisory fees for broker-based models, and a tiered approach to service level agreements based on site criticality. The state is also seeking information on billing automation and eProcurement integration. Responses were due by November 13, 2026, via email. All submissions are subject to the New Hampshire Right-to-Know Law, though vendors may request confidentiality for specific commercial or financial information.
