Requirements Title: Network and Telecom Equipment, Licensing, Maintenance, and Support Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA)
Description: The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has made a significant investment in Cisco hardware and software and built its mission-critical applications using Cisco equipment as the platform. The TSA network contains a combination of over 5,000 Cisco devices (e.g. routers, switches, wireless, security, voice over IP, servers, and other dedicated appliances) with accompanying software and licensing that deliver high-end network and telecommunication capabilities and connectivity to over 600 TSA sites. The infrastructure is critical and used by all TSA staff including screeners, officers and the Law Enforcement (LE officers) to continue protecting life and property on the front lines. The infrastructure requires annual hardware failure protection, licensing, technical support, bug fixes, vulnerability patches, and maintenance. Additionally, these devices require upgrades or replacement as they near End of Life (EOL) and End of Service Life (EOSL) for TSA to remain Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) compliant and provide a secure network. Currently, numerous Divisions across TSA acquire networking and telecommunications equipment, licensing, maintenance, and support utilizing multiple contracts and task orders to address emerging requirements. TSA had an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) for a subset of hardware (specified switches and routers) which expired in September 2025. Establishing a follow-on Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to replace all categories of network equipment and provide ongoing licensing and maintenance provides a central contract to meet ongoing and emerging needs.
