Boone-Apache School District 56 is seeking proposals for fiber WAN service connecting three district sites in Apache, Oklahoma.
- **Government buyer:** Boone-Apache School District 56 (also identified as Boone-Apache Independent School District 56); no sub-agency or office is specified.
- **Primary request:** One leased lit-fiber WAN service for data transmission between Apache High School, the Boone-Apache Administration Building, and Apache Elementary School, with incremental bandwidth pricing from 1 Gbps to 10 Gbps.
- **Additional form entry:** Leased dark fiber is listed at quantity 0, with capacity to be detailed in the RFP; it is not a positive-quantity request.
- **Vendors and OEMs:** No required service provider, vendor, or equipment manufacturer is named. The district’s existing 1 Gbps Ethernet network must be supported, with connection compatibility at no additional cost.
- **Key requirements:** Include installation and initial configuration; identify the demarcation address, delivery method, bandwidth, contract term, and project timeline; and separately itemize monthly service, installation, construction, activation, configuration, taxes, fees, and ineligible costs.
- **Provider and service conditions:** Bidders must attend an on-site visit, be eligible for Oklahoma Universal Service Fund support, provide a SPIN and signed OUSF Provider Verification, and offer a service-level agreement with a minimum service guarantee. A non-incumbent provider must complete transition before service begins.
- **Contract considerations:** Include a multi-year option of up to five years with voluntary annual renewals. The district may cancel after the first year with 30 days’ notice and no charges. Any award depends on E-Rate funding and school-board approval.
