Command Navy Region Hawaii (CNRH) Cable TV & Internet Services

This Performance Work Statement (PWS) outlines the requirements for a contractor to provide cable television and high-speed internet services to Commander Navy Region Hawaii (CNRH) and its associated facilities on Oahu and Kauai. The contractor will be responsible for installation, operation, and maintenance of these services, ensuring continuous and uninterrupted service 24/7. Key performance requirements include a one-business-day response for service issues, a seven-calendar-day completion time for new installations or changes, and pro-rata credit adjustments for service interruptions exceeding 24 hours. The cable TV service must offer a channel lineup similar to commercial offerings on Oahu, including local and Continental US channels, and two public access channels for military/government content. Internet services must provide high-speed broadband via wired connections with a minimum download speed of 300 Mbps. The contractor must also maintain inventory lists and submit monthly invoices. Quality control, security requirements, and compliance with federal and local laws are emphasized. The contract period is 12 months, with performance locations specified in the purchase order.

The Commander, Navy Region Hawaii (CNRH) requires a renewal of internet and Cable TV services, specifically from Charter Communications/Spectrum Business Internet, for the period of March 1, 2026, to February 28, 2027. This procurement is justified as a sole-source acquisition under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), as Charter Communications Operating LLC is deemed the only responsible source. This is due to their existing ownership of the fiber optic and copper coaxial cable infrastructure on Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam (JBPHH) and the requirement for hard-wired connections, which are necessary because of historical building restrictions. Any alternative provider would face unacceptable delays and service interruptions due to the need for new infrastructure development. The services include continuous cable TV and varying levels of internet support for established locations within the service area.
