Mobile Telephone Services for US Embassy Ljubljana, Slovenia

Dear Prospective Quoter:

Enclosed is a Request for Quotations (RFQ) for MOBILE TELEPHONE SERVICES.  If you would like to submit quotation, follow the instructions in Section 3 of the solicitation, complete the required portions of the attached document, and submit your quotation to LjubljanaQuotes@state.gov.

The U.S. Government intends to award a contract to the responsible offeror representing best value using comparative evaluation authorized under FAR 13.106-2(b) (3). A comparative evaluation is defined as the act of comparing two or more offers in response to the RFQ. The item-by-item comparison is performed by comparing each offer directly to one another to determine which provides the best value for the Department.

Comparative evaluation is NOT a low price technically acceptable (LPTA) or trade-off process. Prospective offers must still meet basic standards for responsibility at FAR 9.104 and solicitation compliance to be eligible for award. We intend to award a contract based on initial quotations, without holding discussions, although we may hold discussions with companies if there is a need to do so.

Quotations are due by 10:00 AM local time on January 12, 2026. No quotations will be accepted after this time. Proposals must be in English and incomplete proposals will not be accepted.

Your quotation must be submitted electronically to LjubljanaQuotes@state.gov. It is important to make sure the submission is made in specific size and format; in MS-Word 2007/2010 or MS-Excel 2007/2010 or Adobe Acrobat (pdf) file format. The file size must not exceed 30MB. If the file size should exceed 30MB, the submission must be made in separate files and attached to separate emails with less than 30MB each.

For a quotation to be considered, you must also complete and submit the following:

1. SF-1449

2. Section 1, Pricing

3. Section 5 Representations and Certifications or Proof of SAM Registration (if registered)

4. Additional information as required in Section 3

5. Cybersecurity Supply Chain Risk Management (C-SCRM) Questionnaire

6. Contractor Certification: NDAA Covered Telecommunications Equipment

Quoters are highly encouraged to register in the SAM (System for Award Management) database at https://www.sam.gov prior to submittal of their offer/proposal as prescribed under FAR 4.1102.

Sincerely,       

Halley L. Lisuk, Contracting Officer
