The services provided throughout this Agreement shall be awarded on a Primary/Secondary basis for Work as
follows:
PRIMARY CONTRACTOR: Intelligent Infrastructure Solutions,LLC
SECONDARY CONTRACTOR: Aztek Communications of South Florida, Inc.
BACKGROUND
The Collier County Information Technology Department and the Collier County Traffic Operations Department have
invested significant resources to construct/maintain some 300 miles of underground fiber optics cable for both Traffic
Operations and Information Technology networks. The existing fiber optics networks require routine and urgent
maintenance,to ensure the proper functioning of this asset and to minimize unplanned downtime. The reach of the
two fiber optics networks also is expanded each year to provide service to additional customers and locations. Given
the critical nature of the County's fiber optics facilities, as well as the ongoing attention that the systems require,
Collier County is seeking reliable and qualified firms to provide a variety of fiber optics services.
DETAILED SCOPE OF WORK
All services provided to the County through this Agreement shall be performed solely by the County's Contractor;
no subcontractor or substitute performance will be accepted without prior approval by the County. All fiber optics
work shall be "furnish and install" items, inclusive of labor and equipment costs. The Contractor shall notify the
County agency in writing prior to commencement of work if substitute Contractors are to be used, provide the

Documentation
All work done using this Agreement shall be quoted to include all documentation. The County maintains
documentation of its fiber optics network using, as-built plans, and Visio fiber optics diagrams. The Contractor
shall be required to submit all fiber network updates and changes to the County within (10) business days of
project completion. Contractors will be responsible for including the cost(in their line-item pricing)of providing
documentation for third party as-built plans converted to Visio Fiber Optics Diagrams formats for the County's
use. Any requests for existing infrastructure documentation (such as Visio, Google Earth or GIS Map), which
had never been documented will incur costs at the EXHIBIT B FEE SCHEDULE rates. The County shares fiber
optics network resources between two distinct networks the Collier County Traffic Operations (CCTO) and the
Collier County Information Technology (CCIT). Maintaining clearly defined, as-built plans, fiber optics
diagrams,and GIS location information is paramount for maintenance of the fiber optics network. All work is to
be documented and presented to the representative of the County department requesting the fiber optics work and
to CCTO. Any projects that involve splicing onto another departments fiber optics network requires said
departments permission,as built plans,and Fiber Optics Diagrams showing which fiber buffers were spliced into.

Contractor of the need for immediate repair and issue a Purchase Order to the Contractor. If the Contractor is
unable to mobilize to the repair location within two hours of first contact,the Contractor shall notify the relevant
County project manager immediately, so an alternate Contractor can be contacted for the repair. The alternate
Contractor will also be responsible to respond and be onsite within two (2) hours from notification, and repairs
undertaken and completed in a timely fashion, as requested by the County's representative.
The need for urgent fiber optics repairs is unpredictable by nature. Since it is often critical to restore fiber optics
communication quickly,an urgent flat rate fee may be assessed with this service. Note that only an urgent repair
request may be invoiced at a flat rate fee above standard bid prices; all other bid prices shall remain in effect
regardless of the type of work order issued.
SPECIFICATIONS
Contractors are advised that work shall be completed to: (1) engineering plan requirements, (2) Collier County
specification,or(3)FDOT specification,whichever is deemed sufficiently stringent by the County agency. At no
time, shall a Contractor proceed with lesser standards or specifications unless that determination has been
approved by the County. The Contractor must perform all work within County property, right-of-way limits, or
easement boundaries.
All work is subject to inspection by an authorized Collier County inspector. The County retains the right to
withhold payment on any Contractor's invoice for work that does not meet acceptance criteria and is not corrected
by the Contractor to the County's specifications. The Collier County inspector shall have the authority to make
final determination on whether workmanship,material,and/or the final work product satisfy the specifications.
