Introduction
1. General
The State Purchasing and General Services Commission
(SPGSC) is responsible for planning, establishing, and
managing the operation of a system of telecommunications
services for all state agencies. The Texas Agency Network
(TEX -AN) is, and will continue to be, used to the maximum
extent possible to meet the long distance needs of the
various state agency locations. Each agency location,
whether on TEX -AN or not, must have access to a long dis-
tance carrier. Those locations on TEX -AN use the services
of the long distance carrier for overflow traffic or for
providing service when TEX -AN is not available. Those
locations not on TEX -AN use the long distance carrier for
their primary service. This Invitation for Bid (IFB) is
to obtain a cost effective service to supplement the
existing TEX -AN network and to meet the statewide long
distance requirements for carrier provided services as
described above.
As a result of this IFB, the SPGSC will offer agency
locations three options for alternative long distance
service: 1) remain with the current provider until the
present contract and all extension options have expired;
2) obtain the services of a regulated carrier as permitted
under the provisions of Section 3.01 (b)(4), Article 601b,
V.T.C.S, as an approved delegated purchase by the SPGSC;
or 3) use the services obtained via this IFB as managed
under SPGSC procedures.
(NOTE: THE ABOVE PARAGRAPH WAS DELETED IN ITS ENTIRETY
BY ADDENDUM DATED 3- 22 -91.)
No guarantees can or will be made on the amount of usage
which will be offered to a carrier under this IFB. The
State also reserves the right to procure the identified
services or similar services from any regulated vendor at
either regular tariff or customer specific tariff rates.
(NOTE: THE SECOND SENTENCE IN ABOVE PARAGRAPH WAS DELETED BY
ADDENDUM DATED 3- 22 -91.)
MCI understands and will comply.
The Telecommunications Services Division, SPGSC, does not
intend to convert TEX -AN provided long distance to an
alternative carrier provided service nor is it the intent
of the services under this IFB to supplant TEX -AN
services.
-1-
r � F
The determination will be made solely by the
Telecommunications Services Division and will be based on
factors such as the actual cost of providing TEX -AN
service to a location, originating and terminating traffic
patterns, and the perceived benefits to the State of
maintaining a private network which maximizes
participation within an acceptable range of costs.
Vendors are invited to submit bids in accordance with the
requirements of this document for virtual network long
distance service. Minimum specifications and
requirements for this service are listed in this
Invitation For Bids (IFB).
Offers expiring in less than sixty (60) days following the
opening of bids will not be considered.
Vendors are expected to examine the entire Invitation For
Bids.
Vendor responses must address each item in the IFB in the
order presented and affirmatively state their compliance
or non - compliance with state requirements.
Vendors offering responses to this Invitation For Bids
(IFB) must provide address and telephone number of sales
and customer support staff.

5. ]Agency Terms and Conditions
5.1 Billing
Billing must be based on usage to a tenth of a minute.
Any usage above a tenth of a minute may be rounded up to
the next highest tenth.
The State Purchasing and General Services Commission
acknowledges that intraLATA long distance calls are
generally billed by the Local Exchange Company, e.g.
Southwestern Bell, GTE, United, Continental, etc. Bid
responses which provide reduced rates for intralata long
distance by transporting such calls over the vendor's
facilities will be evaluated using vendor provided rates
rather than tariffed Southwestern Bell rates.
If vendors are offering to provide intraLATA service, a
separate rate schedule in the format of Attachment B, must
be provided with the bid response and a description given
on how the service is to be accessed.
5.1 MCI Description for intraLATA service access: When a caller
wishes to use MCI for intraLKTA long distance service, the
caller /PBX must first dial /enter 10222 followed by 1 and
then area code and number. By dialing 10222, this insures
that the serving local exchange company will 11svitch'e the
call to the MCI network for completion.
5.1 MCI understands and will comply.
5.2 Usage Levels
The State will not guarantee a fixed amount of usage nor
will it guarantee the number of locations which may
subscribe to the virtual network long distance services.
5.2 MCI understands and will comply.
5.3 Terminations Notice
Any location that elects to obtain virtual network long
distance services under the terms of a resulting contract
may terminate them at any time during the contract period
upon giving the vendor seven days notice.
5.3 MCI understands and will comply.
-8-
6. Long Distance Telephone Service specifications
6.1 Type of Service
The vendor must provide intrastate and interstate long
distance telecommunications services, including Hawaii,
Alaska, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
9
6.1 MCI understands and will comply.
6.2 Service Points
There are potentially 1500 locations with approximately
100 -200 minutes of average monthly usage each. Neither
usages levels nor number of locations will be guaranteed.
(See section 5.2)
6.2 MCI understands and will comply.
6.2.1 The State currently has a private network, this network
uses a seven (7) and a ten (10) digit dialing plan. The
seven (7) digit dialing plan is used for completing on -net
calls only. The ten (10) digit dialing plan is used for
completing calls off -net or calls to locations on -net that
are equipped with a PBX. The virtual network services
provided by the vendor must interface with this dialing
plan.
Vendors must describe how their proposed services can
interface to the TEX -AN dialing plan. This interface may
be through a T -1 connection to either a #5 ESS Switch (if
AT &T provided service) or an InteCom S80+ IBX (if non -AT &T
provided), both located in the Sam Houston Building, 201
East 14th Street, Austin, Texas. The T -1 access, if
proposed by the vendor, will only be used for terminating
traffic onto the TEX -AN network.
6.2.1 MCI Vnet service will interface with the TEX -AN dialing plan
as follows:
After the State of Texas selects MCI as the long distance
carrier of its business lines, Vnet Dial one service is
chosen as the access method rather than MCI's regular Dial
one service.
-9-
T -1 access will be from MCI to the InteCom 8 -80+ IBX and
will only be used for terminating traffic.
The dialing plan for 10 -digit calls is the normal dialing
plan for'that call area. To dial a 7 -digit T8X -AK on-
network number, a caller simply dials "1- 700* before the
number. MCI recognizes the "700" and treats the 7 -digit
call as dictated in the State of Texas) 7 -digit on -vnet
numbering plan.

ISO's on Attachment I. Should a vendor bid multiple equal
access ISO's within a city, equal access LSO's must be
listed separately. (See Attachments J and K for
examples).
8.4 MCI understands and will comply.

8.7 XCI understands and will comply.
9. Bid Evaluation
A contract will be awarded to the vendor submitting the
lowest and best bid for intrastate and interstate service
conforming to the specifications required. To determine
who has the lowest and best bid, the State will evaluate
cost and the number of serving offices from which service
is offered at the rates quoted. Cost will constitute
ninety (90) percent of the evaluation score, and the
number of serving offices will constitute ten (10)
percent. To receive an award, a vendor must also meet the
other mandatory requirements of the bid specifications.
No increase in rates will be allowed after a bid is
opened.
A vendor may reduce its rates only after being awarded a
contract. A bid which materially fails to comply with
these specifications and /or does not include completed
Attachments A and D will be rejected. Attachments ,@ „Q,D C

Point
Section Requirement Value
8.4 Number of LSO's From Which Service
is being Offered 50
The vendor serving the most equal access serving offices
will receive the maximum of 50 points. The points awarded
other vendors will be proportionately reduced. For
example, if a vendor proposes to serve ten percent fewer
serving offices, that vendor will receive 45 points (50
minus ten percent of 50).
9.1 MCI understands and will comply.
-15-
9.2 cost svaluation
Relative vendor costs for intrastate and interstate
calling will be determined in the following manner:
A. The calls listed in Attachments E, F, G, and H will be
priced out using the rates each vendor provided in
Attachments A, B, C, and D respectively. Vendors are
to price out the calls in Attachments E, F, G, and H
as part of their bid response. Evaluators will
conduct their own independent pricing using vendor
provided rates. Evaluator pricing will be the basis
of bid award. The evaluators, however, will be able
to compare the results of their pricing with that
provided by the vendors to insure no misunderstanding
of the vendor's rates. If a vendor did not propose to
carry intraLATA traffic over their own facilities and
at their own rates, the calls in Attachment F will be
priced out at Southwestern Bell intraLATA long
distance rates. If a vendor did not propose a system
which would provide different rates for interfacing
with the TEX -AN dialing plan and, therefore, did not
submit a separate rate schedule for switched access to
on -net TEX -AN locations (Attachment C), the calls in
Attachment G will be priced out at the rates that the
vendor submitted in Attachment A.
B. In addition, the vendor was permitted to bid a monthly
recurring charge and a one -time installation charge
for a T -1 access circuit from the vendor's facilities
to the State premises in the Sam Houston Building
(Section 8.2), if the vendor proposed T -1 access in
order to interface to the TEX -AN dialing plan. The
monthly recurring charge, if bid, will be divided by
150,000 minutes (the number of monthly minutes that 24
circuits can carry at a P.01 grade -of- service) to
determine an average monthly cost per minute for
access. The one -time installation charge will be
divided by 900,000 minutes to determine an average
cost per minute to recoup non - recurring charges during
the first six months of the contract. The average
cost per minute for access and the average cost per
minute to recover non - recurring costs will then be
added and the resulting rate will be applied to the
sample calls in Attachment G to determine the amount
that costs derived in Step A above needs to be
incremented to account for the access charges for
the T -1.
C. Steps A and B will be combined by call category and
the following multiplying factors applied to each
vendor's combined costs:
-15-
INTRASTATE INTRASTATE INTRASTATE
CALL interLATA intraLATA VIRTUAL INTERSTATE
CAT O (Attmnt E1 (Attmnt FL (Attmnt H1
Day 16.1 4.6 6.7 2.3
Evening 1.3 0.4 0.5 0.2
Night/ 0.7 0.2 0.2 0.1
Weekend
Applying these factors will give the normal state
distribution of long distance traffic. For example,
multiplying these factors by the sample call minutes
in Attachments E, F, G, and H will show that
approximately 91% on the network traffic is
intrastate; 11% is evening, night, or weekends; and
24% of the intrastate traffic is destined for on -net
TEX -AN locations. These factors were carefully chosen
to assure that the cost evaluation was based on the
average distribution of anticipated traffic. Actual
traffic patterns may change, but should be somewhat
close to that described in this section.
D. The vendor having the lowest total cost resulting from
Steps A through C above will be awarded 450 points.
Other vendors scores will be proportionately reduced
by the percentage that their costs exceeded the lowest
bid. For example, if a vendor's calculated cost in
Step C was 10% higher than the lowest bid, that vendor
would be awarded 405 points (450 points minus 10% of
450 points).
9.2 mCI understands and will comply.
-17-
9. 3 Scores from Sections 9.1 and 9.2 will be totaled and the
vendor having the highest aggregate score will be selected
as having the lowest and beat bid and will be eligible for
a contract award.
9.3 MCI understands and will comply.

Dear Ms. Terry:
Thank you for giving MCI the opportunity to service the City of Baytown and its
telecommunications needs. We are proud to present to you this proposal which we feel will
adequately address the needs that currently exist in your telecommunications.
As addressed earlier, the recently signed Texas State Contract between the State of Texas and
MCI has given state entities, like the City of Baytown, the ability to utilize the finest state -of-
the -art network at incredibly low rates. In addition, the non -R.F.P provision eliminates the
bidding process that is usually necessary for these types of services. The state has already done
the competitive bidding for you, and it has chosen MCI as the carrier to provide service for tax
based organizations.
Beyond the information in this proposal, we want to offer our firm commitment to service your
account and to ensure that the City of Baytown is receiving the highest quality service available.
Sincerely,
Kathleen Keith
Account Executive
MCI PROFILE
MCI's history is now viewed as one of the great business success stories of our time. In the late
1960's, MCI virtually invented competition in the telecommunications industry by becoming the
first company authorized by the FCC to compete with AT &T in the domestic long distance
market. Unfortunately, we had to spend the decade following that authorization occupied with
additional legal battles to uphold the rights for a competitive market.
During the 1980's, MCI built both our seven billion dollar network and our reputation for
innovation. MCI became transcontinental, international, and predominantly fiber optic digital
transmission. We now own and operate the second largest and most sophisticated network in the
world. The introduction of service such as MCI Mail and MCI Fax have demonstrated our
innovation in product solutions, and the development and first commercial operation of single -
mode fiber- optics have shown MCI as the technological leader who is setting the industry
standard.
By introducing competition to the telecommunications industry, both residential and business
customers have benefitted. Competition has spurred greater and faster technology advances,
driven costs downward, and improved service responsiveness. Now as a profitable, multi-
national leader, MCI is well positioned to meet the future needs of our customers and to
continue to set the standards for the information age of the 1990's.
MCI NETWORK
MCI owns and operates the world's most modern telecommunication network to carry voice,data
and messaging transmissions around the world. The MCI Public Switched Network is a
showcase of the latest in digital technology. Our state -of- the -art fiber optic and digital
transmission systems, advanced software -driven switches, and digital cross connects provide
unsurpassed network capacity, flexibility, and control.
Over 80% of the MCI network has been developed in the last four years and represents an
investment of $7.4 billion. An additional $4 billion in additional enhancements is planned for
1991 -1992. The MCI digital network today is more that double its 1987 size, with more than
30,000 digital route miles. All new construction is 100% digital.
In August 1990 MCI announced plans to complete full digitization of the network by the end of
1991. The timetable represents a two year acceleration of network digitalization. The plans to
transform the network include the integration of 3,000 miles of optical fiber acquired through
the merger with Telecom USA; a projected $1.1 billion network investment in 1991; and a
capacity exchange agreement with Williams Telecommunications Group (WilTel) which will
provide MCI with additional digital capacity and redundancy.
Technological leadership in the development of MCI's network has enabled the company to
achieve an impressive list of "firsts" in the telecommunications industry.
MCI NETWORK FIRSTS
MCI - First To ...
♦ develop and commercially operate single mode fiber optic systems, capable of
transmitting voice, data, or video information at 405 million bits per second (1983);
♦ complete the nation's longest high - capacity single -mode fiber optic route (from
Downers Grove, Illinois to Perryman, Maryland in 1985);
♦ introduced an 810 - megabit fiber optic link for commercial communications traffic
(1986);
♦ install a 1.13 gigabit fiber optic link (1987);
♦ introduce a 1.8 gigabit per second transmission, the fastest transmission rate in
commercial use (1988);
♦ introduce the first dedicated FAX network, MCI FAX (1988).
The MCI network is a totally redundant digital network which combines fiber optics, digital
radio, and the latest in digital cross - connect technologies. The network backbone making up the
first route choice for any call consists of only fiber optics and digital radio facilities. Analog
facilities are used only to carry calls during network congestion or outages rather than block the
call. As of September 1990, MCI operated 91 switched in its network. By year -end 1990, 97%
of the port configurations on these switches will be digital. MCI utilizes switches manufactured
by Digital Switch Corporation, Northern Telecom, Rockwell International, and Ericcson. By
not relying on one vendor to drive MCI's network intelligence, we are able to gain
feature /functionality availability and timely project response. Before new technologies are
integrated into the MCI network, they are exhaustively tested at the MCI Engineering
Development Laboratory in Reston, Virginia, to make sure all hardware and software perform
in harmony before being placed in service.
MCI continually reinvests in the network deploying leading edge technology. As a result of
MCI's third quarter in 1990 write -down of analog equipment, the network will be 100% digital
by year end 1991. New digital radio with Forward Error Correcting capabilities is also being
deployed which has performance specs better than fiber. In addition, new digital cross connect
equipment is being installed to improve restoration, installation, provisioning, and monitoring
of the network. New Extended Superframe (ESF) equipment that interfaces with the CSU's will
allow data users to see performance specs from end to end, not just the MCI link.
