Summary: After the closing date of GSA RFQ 1518799, it was determined that CLINS 0009 and 0010 as broken out in the attached Statement of Objective (SOO), were inadvertently left off of the RFQ quotation document. Further review also showed that shipping and travel costs were not specifically addressed in the solicitation or attachments, though delivery and installation services are the main proponent of this requirement. As such, the attached RFQ document has been updated to reflect these additions as they should be included in the offerors quotes. Actual travel costs will be reimbursed in accordance with GSA Per-Diem and Joint Travel Regulations, but should be quoted as an estimate based on the locations as broken out in the SOO and anticipated level of effort for this requirement. Finally, Open Market items, supplies or services, (that is, required items that do not directly fall under these specific GSA schedules) will be accepted under this requirement, but should be labeled as such in the offerors quotations. All quotations will be due No Later Than Thursday Sept 16th at 1500 HST. Quotations can be emailed to the POC below, but should be submitted on GSA ebuy. Due to limitations under the 2GIT BPAS for services, RFQ1507794 has been moved under these schedules as it was determined to be predominantly a service requirement after consultation with GSA. PACAF A3/6 requires the purchase and delivery of Business 7000 UCS Servers that will serve as tech refreshes for PACAF’s Main Operating Bases. The sites include Misawa AB, Japan; Kunsan AB, South Korea; Andersen AB, Guam; JBER, AK; and Diego Garcia, British Territory. Cisco Business 7000 UCS Servers and Cisco Business 6000 UCS Servers are the standardized network components for the NIPRNET/ SIPRNET infrastructure that supports the Air Force component of PACAF. In order to avoid unnecessary delay in fulfilling the Government’s requirements and experiencing duplication of costs as stated herein, the requested hardware and licenses is of the only brand that will satisfy the Government’s requirements at this time. Ten (10)PACAF VoIP systems and ten (10) PACAF Voice over Secure Internet Protocol (VoSIP) systems currently operate on call management servers (Cisco Unified Communication Manager (CUCM) version 11.5) on their Non-secure Internet Protocol Router Network (NIPRNet) and Secure Internet Protocol Router Network (SIPRNet). The purpose of this project is to upgrade those call management systems and voicemail systems to the latest Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC)-certified release (CUCM version 12.5 or equal). The contractor shall migrate the configurations and licenses from the existing systems including the scheduled backups. The upgraded system shall be tested and verified by the contractor and PACAF. Throughout the installation of the VoIP and VoSIP version upgrade, the contractor shall follow the latest version of the Department of Defense Local Session Controller (LSC) Deployment Guide, DISA JITC APL System Under Test (SUT), DISA JITC APL Desktop Review (DTR) documentation, and all applicable DISA VVOIP STIGs. Due to this upgrade being for a Command and Control (C2) system the contractor shall ensure full online redundancy is implemented for the call management servers. VoIP Sites: JBPHH, JBER, Eielson, Andersen, Yokota, Misawa, Kadena, Osan, Kunsan, and Diego Garcia. VoSIP sites: JBPHH, JBER, Eielson, Andersen, Yokota, Kadena, Misawa, Osan, Kunsan, and Diego Garcia.
