About this award
This contract award represents a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call issued by the U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces to Comsat, Inc. for Inmarsat Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN) and GX consolidation services. The award, issued on October 11, 2017, with a completion date of February 1, 2023, carries a ceiling value of $5,744.11 under a firm fixed-price contract structure. The contract was awarded without set-aside provisions and falls under the GSA Information Technology Schedule 70 (IT-70) master vehicle. Comsat, Inc., a division of Satcom Direct Communications, Inc., specializes in providing commercial satellite subscription services and secure global satellite communications solutions across the Department of Defense and federal civilian agencies. The funding agency, the U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces, represents the Navy component of the Pacific Fleet and utilizes this service to support command and control communications requirements across its operational area.
This contract is characteristic of the broader enterprise approach the federal government has adopted for satellite communications services, leveraging GSA schedule vehicles and BPA mechanisms to provide expedited access to critical connectivity solutions. Comsat's parent company, Satcom Direct Communications, Inc., holds significant government contracts including a $241 million indefinite delivery vehicle with the Defense Information Systems Agency established in December 2023. Through these arrangements, federal agencies can rapidly procure satellite airtime, equipment, and associated services to meet mission-critical beyond-line-of-sight communications needs without lengthy procurement cycles, particularly beneficial for military operations where reliable global connectivity is essential.
