Who can use the SUNCOM Statewide Contracts?
Most Executive Branch State agencies are required to use the SUNCOM statewide Contracts to purchase mandatory telecommunications and network services; however, the SUNCOM contracts can also be used by federal agencies, and local public entities that are 100% tax-supported and non-profit or have an eligible joint powers agreement. Please check to see if your organization qualifies to use SUNCOM contracts.
The following are examples of customers using SUNCOM Statewide Contracts:
Why use the SUNCOM Statewide Contracts?
SUNCOM Statewide Contracts contacts provide robust, reliable, and high availability telecommunications services at special rates. SUNCOM Statewide Contracts offer awarded contractors a larger customer base than any other qualified government purchasing vehicle, which encourages contractors to offer lower pricing and more favorable terms, conditions and Service Level Agreements (SLA’s). This collective buying power of the whole public sector in the State generates lower rates and better services.

Verizon is prepared to serve our customers. We have trained thousands of non-union Verizon employees to carry out virtually every job function handled by our represented workforce – from making repairs on poles to responding to inquiries in our call centers. Additionally we have made other arrangements to provide sufficient coverage to handle day-to-day operations for all our customers. We plan to continue providing the excellent service that ITT46, and all our customers, currently receives. Further updates will be provided on this website and through your respective Account teams on the progress of the negotiations.
