About this award

The U.S. Coast Guard awarded a purchase order to Comsat, Inc. on September 11, 2010, for satellite phones to support hurricane readiness operations. The contract, valued at $3,228, was completed by October 11, 2010, with performance at the Coast Guard facility in Rockville, Maryland. No set-aside provisions were utilized for this award. Comsat, Inc., a division of Satcom Direct Communications, Inc., specializes in providing secure global satellite communications and connectivity solutions across government and military sectors, making it well-positioned to deliver emergency communication equipment for the Coast Guard's disaster preparedness initiatives.

This award reflects the Coast Guard's operational need for reliable beyond-line-of-sight communications capability during hurricane response scenarios. Comsat has established itself as a trusted provider of mobile satellite services and equipment to federal agencies, including the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security, through various contract vehicles and blanket purchase agreements. The modest contract value indicates a targeted procurement of satellite communication devices rather than a comprehensive communications infrastructure deployment, supporting the agency's goal of maintaining communication readiness during natural disasters and emergency operations.
