Description
Amendment 2 Answers to Questions Posted to www.house.gov (click on Doing Business with the House top of frame) Also due date of proposals extended to Tuesday October 30, 2012 The U.S. House of Representatives (hereinafter referred to as "the House") seeks to acquire reliable and cost-efficient high-speed Internet services for its offices in Washington, DC and at the Alternate Computing Facility (ACF) in northern Virginia. The House publishes this Request for Proposal (RFP) in order to establish a contractual relationship with one or more Internet service providers who can provide for higher bandwidth, leverage newer technology, provide for physical pathway diversity and satisfy the indefinite quantity of the recurring tasks defined in this solicitation, as well as additional associated tasks based on evolving requirements technology. The House has installed a large campus network in Washington, D.C. and WAN connections to the Member District offices in the 50 States and territories. The House has standardized on Cisco network devices and has deployed over 2,000 routers, switches, access servers, Virtual Private Network (VPN) hardware concentrators and clients and other network devices to support 11,000+ users in Washington, D.C. spread across six buildings on Capitol Hill plus the 900 plus Member District offices. The House currently has a dual-homed Internet strategy that uses two Internet Service Providers (ISPs). Provider facilities terminate in the Ford House Office Building and at the ACF. The House runs two, tiered-rate GigEs with BGP4 on its external border routers. These routers advertise the House's 3 Class B IP address networks to the providers and receive the full BGP table from the providers. The House has a separate dual-homed VPN configuration that uses two ISPs. The facilities terminate in the Ford House Office Building and the ACF. These connections consist of one tiered-rate GigE and one tiered-rate OC-3 which advertise House IP address space (outside of the 3 class B ranges mentioned previously). The House understands the increasing user requirements for Internet access and expects that it will have to periodically upgrade its bandwidth. Important!
