Description

The United States Air Force Test Center is preparing to award a single‑source, Firm Fixed‑Price contract to Charter Communications Operating LLC for a fully managed commercial Internet service supporting 11 buildings at AF Plant 42, Edwards AFB. The service will address emergency response, mission partner connectivity, distinguished‑visitor access, training activities, and overall quality‑of‑life improvements. The contract will be structured with one base year and four optional one‑year extensions, and the government justifies sole‑source procurement based on the vendor’s unique compliance and security authorizations.

Contract value

$8,000,000

The notice does not disclose a dollar amount. A comparable commercial Internet contract for a federal installation covering 11 buildings typically ranges from $1 million to $2 million per year, depending on bandwidth, service level, and security features. Assuming a mid‑range of $1.5 million annually and a potential five‑year term (base year plus four options), the total contract value would be roughly $7.5 million. Given the high‑security environment and the vendor’s exclusive compliance status, the estimate leans toward the higher end of that range, around $8 million.
