Opportunity description
Dear Prospective Quoter: Subject: Request for Quotations number 19KV4227Q0001 for cell phone services. Enclosed is a Request for Quotations (RFQ) for cell phone services. If you would like to submit quotation, follow the instructions in Section 3 of the solicitation, complete the required portions of the attached document, and submit it to the address shown on the Standard Form 1449 that follows this letter. The U.S. Government intends to award a contract to the responsible offeror representing best value using comparative evaluation authorized under FAR 13.106-2(b) (3). A comparative evaluation is defined as the act of comparing two or more offers in response to the RFQ. The item-by-item comparison is performed by comparing each offer directly to one another to determine which provides the best value to the Department. Comparative evaluation is NOT a low price technically acceptable (LPTA) or trade-off process. Prospective offers must still meet basic standards for responsibility at FAR 9.104 and solicitation compliance to be eligible for award. We intend to award a contract based on initial quotations, without holding discussions, although we may hold discussions with companies if there is a need to do so. The Procurement Office will not be holding a pre-quotation conference for this RFQ. However, we will accept questions regarding these requirements until November 16, 2026, via email: PristinaProcurement@state.gov . Responses will be shared directly with interested vendors, and the finalized Q&A will be published on the Embassy website and Sam.gov. Quotations are due by November 30, 2026 @ 15:00 LT. No quotations will be accepted after this time. Proposals must be in English and incomplete proposals will not be accepted. Your quotation must be submitted in a sealed envelope marked "Quotation Enclosed for 19KV4227Q0001 for cell phone services at the following address: 4 Korriku # 25, Pristina 10000, Kosovo.

This timeline records when GovBidFit first stored the notice and material field changes detected during scheduled SAM.gov refreshes. It is an audit aid, not a substitute for the official amendment history.

GOVBIDFIT SCREENING LENS
What deserves attention before you spend bid time
These screening signals are generated from the public notice fields stored for this specific opportunity. They are not eligibility findings or predictions; they are prompts for a faster, more disciplined review of the official solicitation.
This record is in a solicitation stage, so submission instructions, evaluation factors, attachments and amendments should be reviewed before a bid/no-bid decision.
The stored response date leaves more than ten days, but amendments and pre-response milestones can shorten the usable preparation window.
The current feed does not show a program-specific set-aside restriction. That does not remove other eligibility, responsibility, registration or solicitation-specific requirements.
NAICS 517112 · PSC DG11 is the recorded classification. Use it as a screening clue, then compare the actual scope and deliverables rather than treating the code alone as proof of fit.
GovBidFit stores 2 notices tied to this solicitation. Review the notice chain and official SAM.gov history because later postings can change dates, scope or instructions.
GovBidFit stores the source notice text, but its length does not prove the requirements are complete. Review official attachments, clauses, amendments and Q&A before relying on the description.
The source data includes 2 public contracting contacts. Use the solicitation's stated communication rules and deadlines before contacting the buyer.
Questions to resolve next
What this opportunity record tells you
SAM.gov identifies this as a solicitation from STATE, DEPARTMENT OF. The record was posted on November 2, 2026 and currently lists November 30, 2026 as the response deadline. GovBidFit keeps source facts separate from its matching guidance so you can see what comes from the federal notice.
The listed product or service classification is NAICS 517112 · Wireless Telecommunications Carriers (except Satellite) · PSC DG11. The set-aside field is Unrestricted. These fields help narrow your search, but they do not replace the full solicitation, amendments, attachments, clauses or eligibility language on the official source.
