About

Announcements

The current contract was set to end in September of 2019 and needed to be extended to September 2020. Toward that end we have amended the contract to give us time to put out a new RFP.  The amendment does not include any equipment refresh so the existing equipment will remain in place for the next year.

Please see a high level timeline below.

Carrier Contract Awards

Within the Carrier Services Award Report for 2013 some one-time cost data was not available, due to numerous agency purchasing systems being de-centralized and ADOA-ASET/EIC does not have access to those systems to retrieve or validate the costs. 
 
Beginning in calendar year 2014, we have implemented internal processes and procedures to capture the one-time cost estimates and validate the actuals and they will be published in all future reports posted to this webpage.
