About this award
Comsat, Inc., a division of Satcom Direct Communications, Inc., was awarded a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call valued at $6,401.17 by the U.S. Marine Corps on November 29, 2017, for Inmarsat Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN) and Global Xpress (GX) consolidation services under General Services Administration (GSA) Information Technology Schedule 70. The contract, which was ultimately discontinued with a completion date of October 31, 2023, utilized firm fixed-price pricing with no set-aside designation. Performance was executed in Jacksonville, North Carolina, where Comsat provided commercial satellite subscription services to support the Marine Corps' broadband connectivity requirements.
This award represents a call against Comsat's existing GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract, allowing the Marine Corps to leverage pre-negotiated pricing for satellite communications services. Comsat, as a prime contractor specializing in secure global satellite communications solutions for defense and federal agencies, regularly delivers similar BGAN and broadband services to the Department of Defense and other government entities. The relatively modest award value reflects a specific subscription or service period call rather than a comprehensive procurement, consistent with how federal agencies utilize BPA vehicles to address immediate satellite connectivity needs across their operations.
