The Department of Defense, specifically the Utah Air National Guard (UTANG), intends to award a sole source contract to Zayo Group, LLC for Local & Long-Distance Telecommunications Services. This procurement is essential for maintaining uninterrupted telecommunication services at the Salt Lake City ANG Base, as Zayo Group owns the necessary local infrastructure to support these services. The justification for this sole source acquisition is based on the critical need to avoid communication disruptions and the potential loss of existing telephone numbers, which could arise from switching providers. Interested parties may express their interest by contacting MSgt Lyndi Bell at lyndi.bell.2@us.af.mil by 2:00 PM, Mountain Daylight Time, on September 11, 2024, as no competitive bidding will be conducted at this time.
