Winning Contractor
Congratulations to our friends at Verizon for their multi-award win under the Department of Labor’s $50B Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) contract to provide telecommunications and information technology support services.
Transitioning from the Networx contract vehicle that has been in place with the GSA since 2007, the 15-year EIS contract is the GSA’s premiere telecommunications contract. Under this contract, the DOL released its EIS request for proposals in March.
Under this mega-contract, Verizon was recently awarded three task orders including a 12-year task order to provide managed network, voice, data and toll-free services valued at $631.5M; a second valued at $10.2M for audio and web conferencing services; and a third is for Managed Trusted Internet Protocol Service valued at $164.2M also over 12 years.

Congratulations to our friends at Lockheed Martin for their recent Department of Defense contract win to support and sustain the F-35 Lightning II combat jet fleet through 2020.
Awarded annually, this contract provides a range of improvements to Lockheed Martin’s repair and maintenance network. It will pay for advanced engineering work, fleetwide data analytics, pilot and maintainer training, supply chain management resources, and the services of industry sustainment experts at air bases and depots.
“The F-35 continues to deliver exceptional capabilities to the field, and this contract ensures F-35s are mission ready to meet warfighter needs,” said Greg Ulmer, the Lockheed Martin vice president who serves as general manager of the F-35 program. “The joint government and industry team continues to make significant progress improving readiness rates and reducing sustainment costs. In 2020, we are confident F-35 sustainment costs will be equal to or less than legacy jets.”
Work under the $1.9 billion contract will take place in Texas, Florida, South Carolina, California and the United Kingdom.
