| Bechtel National will serve as a subcontractor to AT&T Bechtel National, Inc. will compete to provide a range of information technology services to federal government agencies and serve as a subcontractor to AT&T Government Solutions, a business unit of AT&T, Inc., which has been awarded a Networx Enterprise contract by the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA). Networx Enterprise is a companion contract to Networx Universal, awarded to the AT&T team in March. Under the Networx Enterprise contract, Bechtel National will work with AT&T to compete for Internet Protocol (IP), optical and wireless services to specific geographic regions served by federal government agencies. Bechtel National will provide services similar to those offered under Networx Universal. These include engineering, procurement, construction, and project management. The AT&T Networx team brings together industry-leading networking and IT capabilities, which also includes Northrop Grumman Information Technology of McLean, Va.; EDS of Herndon, Va.; GTSI Corp. of Chantilly, Va.; SRA International, Inc., of Fairfax, Va.; and Global Crossing of Florham Park, N.J. Networx Enterprise is an Indefinite Delivery-Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contract with a potential value of $20 billion over the next 10 years. Networx will replace the expiring GSA FTS2001 and FTS2001 Crossover contract vehicles. The ID/IQ contract gives AT&T, Bechtel, its teammates, and others the right to compete for specific task orders within the scope of the Networx Enterprise contract. Networx Enterprise does not require contractors to provide services to as many locations. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
