About this award
This contract award represents a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call issued by Air Force Space Command to Comsat, Inc. for Inmarsat Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN) commercial satellite subscription services. The contract, valued at $2,614.54, was awarded on January 25, 2019, with an ultimate completion date of April 28, 2020. The work was performed at Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Base in Colorado. No set-aside designation was applied to this award. Comsat, Inc., a division of Satcom Direct Communications, Inc., specializes in providing secure global satellite communications and connectivity solutions to government and military entities, and this contract reflects the company's established role as a provider of commercial satellite subscription services across the Department of Defense.
The modest contract value indicates this was a task order or call against an existing BPA vehicle rather than a standalone contract. Comsat serves as both a prime contractor and subcontractor for satellite communications services and has been awarded numerous federal contracts for Inmarsat broadband services supporting USSOCOM, the Marine Corps, and the Army, among other agencies. The BGAN service provides critical beyond-line-of-sight communications capabilities essential for military and government operations in remote or austere environments. Satcom Direct Communications, the parent company, holds a significant $241 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement through the Defense Information Systems Agency that allows multiple federal agencies to access pre-negotiated satellite communications products and services.
