RFI for Enterprise Telecommunications Transport and Internet Access Sourcing Strategy Service

The Colorado government authority is seeking information to develop an enterprise telecommunications transport and internet access sourcing strategy. The agency needs to evaluate the feasibility of replacing address-specific line items with flat-rate bandwidth tiers or regional geographic zones to ensure highly objective, comparable cost evaluations across its complex environment. The project aims to optimize the structure of a future solicitation to eliminate administrative friction, minimize vendor frustration, and simplify the proposal submission process for high-performing suppliers. The agency requires a commercial framework that reflects total cost of ownership principles, controls future expenditure volatility, and balances business and performance risks. The scope of work requires the selected vendor to perform all services onsite. Only organizations based in the United States are eligible to participate in this market research effort. The agency is currently looking for proposals to understand budget expectations for this initiative. Interested parties must submit all questions regarding this request for information no later than June 12, 2026. Respondents may submit their final responses digitally via email or through the designated online portal.
