A Testament to Long-Standing Support and Innovation




RESTON, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#Bloomberg–After a rigorous process spanning 18 months, four protests, and four separate proposal submissions, TekSynap has been awarded the VA LAN CCT (IRP) contract with our SEWP V prime, Alvarez IT, and our OEM partner, Juniper. This achievement reflects TekSynap’s commitment to excellence and is a milestone that marks the company’s long-standing support for Veterans Affairs (VA).

“This was a multi-year effort by the entire team, culminating with an award, representing a tectonic shift in the VA’s LAN switching infrastructure. This award is the first time in 25 years the VA has switched gears regarding their LAN switch technologies. This award represents only a fraction of the VA’s networks – which means there is so much more work to do for our Veterans.” – Kamran Jinnah, CEO

TekSynap’s relationship with the VA dates to the company’s inception, showcasing a history rich in collaboration and technological advancement. The scope of this relationship has evolved over the years, with TekSynap providing critical infrastructure installation services and becoming a trusted advisor in process re-engineering at the project, program, and enterprise levels.

The VA LAN CCT (IRP) refreshes over 17,000 LAN switches across eight Veterans Integrated Services Networks (VISNs), covering various CONUS and OCONUS regions. TekSynap’s role extends beyond procurement and delivery; the company is responsible for migrating configurations of existing Cisco switches into the JUNOS operating system format and deploying advanced micro-segmentation and zero-trust enabling capabilities via VX LAN topologies.

This program is critical to our nation’s veterans and is required for multiple VA initiatives to move forward, including TekSynap’s own NextGen Wireless upgrades. The initial validation of the architecture in the VA’s Cleveland, OH Labs will be followed by an IOC at the first installation site at White River Junction, VT.

TekSynap’s subcontract value is $158M, and the performance period is from March 27, 2024, to March 26, 2028. The place of performance includes 63 VA Medical Centers (VAMCs) and 317 remote clinics in the CONUS and OCONUS.
