About this IDV

Inmarsat Government, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Stratos Government Services, Inc., was awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) valued at $9,999,999.99 with performance extending through November 30, 2026. The BPA, issued without a small business set-aside designation under the General Services Administration Multiple Award Schedule vehicle, establishes a master procurement framework for satellite communications equipment and airtime services to support FEMA's emergency response and disaster recovery operations. The contract encompasses comprehensive satellite communications capabilities including Iridium satellite phone subscriptions, Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN) subscriptions, network satellite SIM cards, satellite phone equipment, and associated mobile satellite services infrastructure. These mission-critical communications solutions enable FEMA to maintain reliable voice, data, and connectivity capabilities in austere environments and disaster zones where conventional terrestrial infrastructure is unavailable, compromised, or overwhelmed.

The executed task orders issued against this BPA demonstrate sustained, substantial utilization across calendar year 2025 through mid-2026, with individual call orders ranging from $195 to $256,978.48 and aggregating to several million dollars in cumulative obligations. FEMA issued task orders supporting multiple operational initiatives including the Incident Management Assistance Team (IMAT) program, regional offices, Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP) sites, Emergency Relocation Groups, and Mission Support Executive Office functions. Call orders were distributed across geographically dispersed performance locations including Washington DC, multiple regional offices, field deployment sites, and austere locations such as the U.S. Virgin Islands and Alaska, reflecting FEMA's nationwide disaster response posture. The non-competitive procurement structure and established relationship between FEMA and Inmarsat Government reflect the contractor's strategic positioning as a specialized provider of essential satellite communications infrastructure supporting federal emergency management and disaster recovery requirements.
