We currently have Contracts for three (3) Service providers for Cellular and Wireless Services. They are:
Category 1- Cellular Wireless Services:
This category will cover the basic cellular wireless transport services for voice, data and messaging, as well as any new basic transport services that may be introduced for applications like those defined for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. “Cellular wireless transport” is defined to mean carrier provided wireless services that employ a radio access network based on technologies defined by the Third Generation Partnership Program (3GPP).
Category 2- Equipment and Accessories:
This category includes any equipment or accessories operating over cellular carrier provided network services or intended for use with cellular connected devices.
Category 3- Turnkey Wireless and IoT Solutions that are offered as a product:
This category includes any of the wireless or IoT solutions or applications being offered as a complete product by the contractor.
- Subcategory 3a – Fleet Management
- Subcategory 3c – Mobile Integration
Please note:
The period between device upgrades has been changes from 12 months to 18-24 months depending on the Supplier. (Note: With this, there is potential of higher cost to replace phones with the longer, 2-year commitment). Subsidized devices are still available from all Suppliers but require a 2-year commitment. The breaking of the commitment will have an early termination fee. Before we could purchase a subsidized device with no commitment.
We recommend that you compare and review coverage and rates that best meet your Agency/Department's needs. The Office of Purchasing & Contracting (OPC) suggests working direclty with the provider's Account Manager (listed below) to ensure the maximum optimization of the required service.
The provider's Account Manager can also assist you in configuring Service Groups or Pools of Users to share minutes. As well, they can assist in recommending the best solution (equipment and service plan) to meet your needs.
Below, you will find an overview, by provider of the three (3) Wireless Service Contracts. Also providred are links to the provider's website and areas of coverage.
