About this award
The Internal Revenue Service has ratified an unauthorized commitment to Butler Broadcasting Company, LTD., an Austin, Texas-based small disadvantaged business, for an antenna lease supporting criminal investigations transmitters. This firm fixed-price purchase order, valued at $5,000 and awarded September 29, 2025, represents a law enforcement acquisition with completion targeted for October 31, 2025. The contract carries no set-aside designation, indicating open competition, and Butler Broadcasting will perform the work at its Austin facility. This ratification action formalizes a commitment that was previously made without proper authorization procedures, a common occurrence when urgent operational needs require immediate execution before formal contracting processes can be completed.
Butler Broadcasting Company has established itself as a specialized provider of communications infrastructure leasing to federal law enforcement agencies, with a track record of multiple contracts from both the IRS and DEA. The company, registered in SAM.gov since June 2002 and structured as a partnership or limited liability partnership, focuses specifically on antenna and tower site rental solutions. Previous contract values with these agencies have ranged from approximately $6,000 to $152,000, with the most significant being a five-year IRS antenna site lease valued at $151,800. This current $5,000 acquisition aligns with the vendor's core competency and established relationship with the IRS for supporting federal investigative communication requirements in the Austin metropolitan area.
