Summary of Specifications:
The Mesa County Valley School District 51 desires to provide high-speed, state of-the-art dedicated GigE and please include a separate quote for a 10GigE digital data network services among its various sites. Proposals including both capacities are requested. This connectivity will be designed to accommodate both the present and future digital application needs. The intent is to achieve an industry standards-based infrastructure which will enhance educational and administrative activities at all sites with the flexibility and support to adjust to future needs and activities.
The Mesa County Valley School District 51 is soliciting qualified contractors to submit an installation and ongoing service bid for (including, but not limited to) digital equipment, data cabling, and associated termination equipment as required. All equipment included in this request will be owned and maintained by the awarded service provider with no option for transfer of ownership to the lessee. The awarded service provider will, however, provide access to said equipment and allow administrator rights where these rights may assist in the smooth daily operations of the infrastructure.
The long-term contract accepted for this project is entirely contingent upon available funding from the federal E-Rate program (Schools and Libraries Division), and the Mesa County Valley School District 51 may or may not undertake the project at its sole discretion. In addition, the Mesa County Valley School District 51 will require that the awarded service provider ensure that all eligible components of service are compatible with the current technology infrastructure equipment.
