Local Telecommunications Services

Special Alert:

Originally set to expire on or before May 2020, GSA extended the current telecommunications contracts until May 2023. Agencies should focus on meeting transition-related timelines noted below. Use of the extended contracts will be further restricted by the limitations process and the freeze on modifications and orders. Read more about this in the letter to all Agency Transition Sponsors [PDF - 139 KB] from GSA's Assistant Commissioner Bill Zielinski.

-- September 30, 2022: 100% of agencies’ telecom inventory must be off current contracts and moved to EIS.
-- May 31, 2023: Networx, WITS3, and Local Service telecom contracts expire.
