About this award

This contract award represents a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call issued by the U.S. Marine Corps to Comsat, Inc. for Inmarsat Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN) and GX consolidation services. Valued at $5,974.08 with a firm fixed price structure, the contract was awarded on November 17, 2017, and completed on May 25, 2023. The award was made without set-aside provisions and involved commercial satellite subscription services delivered to Jacksonville, North Carolina. Comsat, Inc., a division of Satcom Direct Communications, Inc., specializes in providing secure global satellite communications solutions to government and military customers, leveraging its expertise in mobile satellite voice and broadband data services for defense and federal agencies.

This contract reflects the Marine Corps' reliance on commercial satellite communications capabilities to support beyond-line-of-sight operations and mission-critical connectivity. Comsat's role as a prime contractor under this BPA call demonstrates the company's established position within the federal contracting landscape for satellite communication services. The relatively modest contract value indicates this was a specific task order or call against a larger BPA vehicle, consistent with how federal agencies utilize blanket purchase agreements to acquire commercial satellite services on an as-needed basis. The service discontinuation noted in the award information suggests the Marine Corps completed its requirements under this particular call by the ultimate completion date.
