GSA's Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) Contract

Converge Networks Corporation (CNC) is the current Prime Contractor supporting the GSA TAAS contract on the groundbreaking $50 billion EIS contract for telecommunications and IT infrastructure.

Converge Networks Corporation (CNC) is the current Prime Contractor supporting the GSA TAAS contract on the groundbreaking Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) contract for telecommunications and IT infrastructure. This effort culminated in 10 vendor awards in July 2017.

 

The $50 Billion, 15 year, multiple award IDIQ EIS contract will be the government-wide replacement for expiring Networx, WITS3, and Local Service Agreements (LSAs) contracts. EIS will also serve as the contract vehicle for modernization initiatives recommended by the recent draft Report to the President on Federal IT Modernization.

GSA’s EIS COR:

“CNC’s work with EIS process improvement initiatives such as the Best Practices & SOW Templates initiative and the SOW-ASSIST tool and the EIS Agency Transition Cost Estimation (EATCE) project has resulted in CNC having unmatched knowledge and experience utilizing the very tools and processes that will be employed during the agency EIS transitions, greatly saving clients’ time and money.”

CNC's SMEs worked with GSA and the vendor community to define a deep and broad set of services. The EIS contract comprises 32 services offered with very competitive pricing.  Vendors can offer even lower prices to an agency without requiring a contract modification that would make those same prices available to all other agencies – hence agencies can obtain volume discounts when warranted.

 

Services can be combined or tailored into solutions to support an agency’s unique requirements.  To accommodate this flexibility EIS includes Task Order Unique CLINs (TUCs).  TUCs can provide service bundling (with associated discounted pricing) and/or be used to satisfy unique requirements that do not require modifying the EIS contract, unlike previous GSA telecommunications contracts.    

 

To accommodate equipment and services that are rapidly evolving, EIS provides a services catalog. Catalog items can be dynamically added by the offeror and ordered using discount CLINs, also without requiring a modification to the contract.

EIS has additional flexibility by enabling an offeror to offer an EIS services or locations that it does not currently provide – without a forbearance period -- which will be added to the EIS contract, if it is deemed fair and reasonable. Leveraging our five years of in depth experience with EIS, we continue to provide post award support.
