Purchase Order HC101323PA178

The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) awarded a $2,445.95 fixed-price purchase order with economic price adjustment (FPEA) to Verizon Washington, DC Inc. on February 23, 2023, for 3 kilohertz mobile voice services in support of DISA operations. The contract, designated CP001224EBM, carries an ultimate completion date of February 16, 2028, and will be performed in Washington, DC. This purchase order was not issued under a set-aside program and represents a competitively awarded telecommunications service acquisition. Verizon Washington, DC Inc., a subsidiary of Verizon Communications Inc., specializes in providing comprehensive telecommunications services to federal government agencies with particular expertise in voice and data transmission solutions.

DISA's telecommunications procurement strategy, as reflected in this award, continues to prioritize established carriers capable of delivering mission-critical voice communications infrastructure. The relatively modest ceiling value reflects the narrow scope of this particular purchase order for 3 kilohertz mobile voice services, consistent with Verizon Washington, DC Inc.'s typical contract portfolio with DISA, which emphasizes fixed-price arrangements with economic price adjustments to account for carrier cost variations. The contractor's parent entity, Verizon Maryland LLC, holds significant federal telecommunications framework agreements including a GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract and Department of Defense Chief Information Officer Wireless and Telecommunications Services Indefinite Delivery Vehicle arrangements, positioning the Verizon organization to efficiently fulfill DISA's ongoing communications requirements across multiple vehicle types and contracting mechanisms.
