Federal government agencies largely order their telecommunications through GSA’s Networx telecommunications program or through our Regional Local Service Agreements (LSAs) for local telecommunications.
As announced in March, we are extending the period of performance for the Network Universal and Enterprise contracts from 2017 to 2020. We are currently working with our industry suppliers to extend the LSAs, including the Washington Interagency Telecommunications System (WITS) 3 contract in the metropolitan DC area.
In addition, we are working closely with our federal agency partners to begin rigorous transition planning and preparation. These extensions will allow agencies time to develop requirements and evaluate and implement solutions using the follow-on Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) contract and/or other contracts in the GSA ITS portfolio.
Read more about how we are no longer pursuing Regional Infrastructure Solutions (RIS), but are instead focusing on Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS).
