Saving Project...

This is a service / maintenance or supply contract in Bowling Green, Ohio. Contact the soliciting agency for additional information.

Bowling Green State University is seeking a vendor to provide Arista Network products, with professional services for a project to modernize and optimize the existing network infrastructure. A proof of concept (PoC) is requested to test and validate the proposed changes along with managed services to oversee the ongoing maintenance, monitoring, and optimization of the refreshed network. 01/05/2024 02:00 PM EST Any questions must come through BGSU performed an RFI earlier this year and selected Arista Networks as our strategic network equipment vendor moving forward. As such, we are soliciting this RFP to provide both hardware pricing based on a specific proof of concept design using Arista network products and the professional services that will be required to implement this stage of the new BGSU backbone and in building network design. Four buildings have been selected for this proof of concept phase. They include the following: BGFH -- Field House HEAL -- Health and Human Services RECR -- Student Rec Centers WOLF -- Wolfe Center The selection criteria for these facilities included the number of wiring closets, cabinets, and lab switches as well as the number of fiber paths available. These four buildings offer a variety of closet counts and stack reduction opportunities as well. The Scope of work for this project is to include design validation, configuration, and deployment assistance of (8) 7050CX3 spine switches, (12) 7050SX3 distribution/aggregation switches, (20) 720XP-48ZC campus building access switches, (10) 720XP-48Y6 campus building access layer switches and (2) 710P-16P campus building access switches. This amounts to 52 new Arista switches in total across all relevant main campus locations that will require "rack and stack" assistance. This work will need to occur during off hour times with BGSU ITS network staff assistance for access and supervision as needed. All of the items noted above are to interoperate with the remaining BGSU network infrastructure and backbone in parallel until a complete replacement of all equipment occurs. A different way of saying this is that we will have two backbones (old and new) that need to communicate with each other for a period of time including the use of applicable routing protocols. This project should also include project management time provided by the professional service organization selected. BGSU will provide a project management office staff member to compliment this effort and assist in coordinating BGSU staff resources. In coordination between these two groups a detail project and timeline is to be developed as one of the very first steps in this process. BGSU will elect to manage this in our Team Dynamics PMO system and will provide regular copies of this including project status to the entire project team.
