Dehesa Elementary School District is seeking high-speed data connectivity to the San Diego County Office of Education in San Diego. - Government buyer: Dehesa Elementary School District; no sub-agency or office is identified. The requested connection runs from the district in El Cajon to the San Diego County Office of Education. - Scope and quantities: Two approximate requests each for standalone data transmission, Category One network equipment, and Category One maintenance and operations, with a listed capacity range of 1–10 Gbps. The detailed RFP also describes one high-speed data service request at 1 Gbps or higher. - Equipment and OEMs: The provider must supply and maintain necessary equipment for a single-mode fiber handoff. No OEMs, vendors, makes, models, or part numbers are named. - Service requirements: Include equivalent existing service, circuit retention or porting, transition and installation costs, and termination at specified demarcation and MDF locations. The SLA calls for 99.99% network availability and packet delivery, 30 ms one-way latency, four-hour end-to-end repair, 24/7/365 monitoring, and no capacity throttling. - Capacity and pricing: Provide growth pricing for 2, 5, and 10 Gbps and separately identify E-Rate-eligible and ineligible items and costs. - Term: The requested initial term is three years, with two optional one-year extensions. The source documents also state a funding-year service restriction that appears inconsistent with the requested multiyear term.
