This federal contract Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) is a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) awarded by the U.S. Army Intelligence and Security Command (INSCOM), a defense agency, to SES Space & Defense, Inc., a subsidiary of global satellite communications provider SES. The $119.8 million BPA, which runs through May 2027, provides a flexible contracting vehicle for SES Space & Defense to deliver a wide range of satellite communications products and services to support critical national security, defense, and intelligence missions. This includes low latency, high throughput satellite services; very small aperture terminal (VSAT) networks; satellite-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance solutions; hosted payloads; and managed satellite communications services.

The company has also been awarded a $269 million BPA from the Defense Information Systems Agency for similar satellite communications capabilities, as well as task orders under a $950 million multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Vehicle for the Air Force's Advanced Battle Management System program. The INSCOM BPA has no set-aside designation, and the task orders awarded under it range in value from under $100,000 to over $20 million, with the majority being firm-fixed price arrangements. This contract provides a centralized, streamlined mechanism for INSCOM to rapidly acquire tailored satellite communications solutions from a proven industry leader in this domain.
