| Status Memo: |
MR1: The FRN was modified from a Contract Award Date of 02/11/2015 to a Contract Award Date of 03/25/2016 to agree with the applicant documentation. <><><><><> DR1: FRN 2735574 is denied because you did not select the most cost-effective bid proposal. FCC rules state that in selecting a provider of eligible services, applicants must carefully consider all bids submitted and must select the most cost-effective service offering. In determining which service offering is the most cost-effective, entities may consider relevant factors other than the pre-discount prices submitted by providers, but price should be the primary factor considered. The FCC further codified in the Ysleta Order that when evaluating bids from prospective service providers, applicants must select the most cost-effective offering from the bids received. The selected bid must itself be cost-effective compared to prices available commercially and stated that there may be situations where the price of services is so exorbitant that it cannot, on its face, be cost-effective. For instance, a proposal to sell at prices two to three times greater than the prices available from commercial vendors would not be cost-effective absent extenuating circumstances. FRN 2735574 is a request for 1000Mb Internet Access at $5,450.00 per month. 2015 470# 530210001257648 included a request Internet Access with no specific bandwidth requirement. You received bids responsive to the specific services as requested on the Form 470. The bid you selected is well over two to three times more costly than the bid you selected. This violates the FCC requirement that applicants select the most cost-effective offering from the bids received absent extenuating circumstances. During the review you did not present extenuating circumstances which mitigates this issue and the FRN is denied. |
