Purchase Order 19UK5626P0361

The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs awarded a $41,527.79 firm fixed-price purchase order to 22nd Century Networks, Inc. (doing business as BT Federal Inc.) on April 1, 2026, for a radio tower with an ultimate completion date of April 26, 2027. The contract is unclassified with no small business set-aside designation and will be performed in Great Britain, United Kingdom. BT Federal Inc. is a foreign-owned telecommunications and network services provider headquartered in Reston, Virginia, and a subsidiary of the United Kingdom-based BT Group plc, which specializes in delivering mission-critical communications infrastructure and IT services to the U.S. federal government.

This procurement aligns with BT Federal Inc.'s core competencies in telecommunications infrastructure and network services across European locations. The company maintains substantial contract vehicles with multiple defense agencies, including a $95 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with U.S. Air Forces Europe and Africa for outside plant services, a $7 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with the U.S. Air Force for inside plant and premise wiring services, and positions on the General Services Administration's Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions contract. The radio tower acquisition represents a continuation of BT Federal Inc.'s role as a primary provider of critical communications infrastructure to support U.S. government operations and diplomatic missions throughout Europe.
