Purchase Order HC101323PA197

The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) awarded a $2,456.89 fixed-price purchase order with economic price adjustment provisions to Verizon Washington, DC Inc. on March 16, 2023, for three kilohertz mobile voice services in support of DISA's mission-critical communications infrastructure. The contract, designated CP001235EBM, is scheduled for completion by March 9, 2028, and will be performed at the contractor's Washington, DC headquarters location. This award was issued without any set-aside designation, reflecting the open competitive procurement process typical of Verizon's federal contracting engagements. Verizon Washington, DC Inc., a subsidiary of Verizon Maryland LLC and ultimately owned by Verizon Communications Inc., is a specialized telecommunications provider with an extensive portfolio of federal contracts focused on voice and data transmission services for the Department of Defense and other government agencies.

This purchase order represents a component of DISA's broader telecommunications procurement strategy, which relies on established vendors like Verizon to deliver voice communications services supporting the department's information systems and operational requirements. Verizon's federal contracting presence includes participation in multiple master contract vehicles, including the Department of Defense Chief Information Officer Wireless and Telecommunications Services Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract and the Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions master IDIQ, which enable the agency to procure telecommunications services competitively across multiple authorized vendors. The fixed-price structure with economic price adjustment provisions allows DISA to maintain cost certainty while accommodating market-based adjustments over the contract's five-year performance period.
