## Description

ABMC currently uses dedicated fiber internet access (DIA) services at 29 global sites. The existing service contract expires in July 2026. This project replaces the existing services with upgraded fiber connections at all locations by April 15, 2026, before local ABMC site preparations for Memorial Day 2026. Current services range from 100Mb/s to 1Gb/s. The North Africa American Cemetery in Tunisia does not have fiber connectivity due to the absence of a last-mile fiber provider.

ABMC hosts events throughout the year, including Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and D-Day commemorations. The project must be completed by April 15, 2026 as this date allows for transition from the existing contract’s ISP to the selected new contract’s ISP well before Memorial Day 2026. ABMC understands that it will take time to form teams and to prepare a proposal and that the geographical range of this RFP is vast.

As such, ABMC invites you to submit your proposal even if you cannot service all locations (all or some basis) and even if certain SLA terms cannot be met today. In your proposal, please clearly identify each SLA you anticipate not meeting and provide specific technical and business justifications explaining why these SLAs cannot be achieved. Detailed explanations will help ABMC fully understand the practical constraints and evaluate all proposals equitably. We encourage you to propose alternative SLA terms that you could meet, along with supporting rationale and any recommended adjustments.
