The Illinois Army National Guard requires network and telecommunications services for 49 sites across Illinois under a contract with one base year and four option years. The work involves providing NIPRNet connectivity, commercial broadband at 26 sites, and voice services including POTS lines with emergency communications. The solution must integrate with existing government systems and vendors are encouraged to propose modern architectures like SD-WAN. Robust service level agreements with defined support and redundancy procedures are required. The desired outcome is a modern, resilient network to support mission readiness over the contract's life.
