About this award
This contract award represents a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call for Inmarsat Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN) and GX consolidation services issued by Air Combat Command, a major component of the Department of the Air Force. The prime contractor, Comsat, Inc. (a division of Satcom Direct Communications, Inc.), was awarded this firm fixed-price BPA call with a ceiling value of $4,513.60 and an ultimate completion date of November 4, 2022. The contract was awarded on September 5, 2018, without any set-aside designation, and the place of performance is located in Ashburn, Virginia. Comsat specializes in providing secure global satellite communications and connectivity solutions for government and military sectors, with extensive experience delivering commercial satellite subscription services across federal agencies.
This award operates under the General Services Administration's Information Technology Schedule 70 (IT-70), which enables federal agencies to access pre-negotiated pricing for satellite communications products and services. The relatively modest ceiling value reflects this as a specific task order call against Comsat's broader master agreement, allowing the Air Force to procure satellite broadband connectivity on an expedited basis. Comsat's parent company, Satcom Direct Communications, Inc., has established itself as a significant provider of mobile satellite communications across the Department of Defense and other federal agencies, with portfolio offerings including Inmarsat services, satellite phones, and associated support equipment. This contract supports the Air Force's requirements for beyond-line-of-sight communications capabilities in remote or operationally challenging environments.
