About this IDV
Hughes Network Systems LLC, a subsidiary of EchoStar Corporation, was awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Office of Administrative Services Procurement Management Branch for broadband services under the Information Technology Schedule 70 (IT-70) Governmentwide Acquisition Contract vehicle. The BPA, awarded on May 12, 2011, with an ultimate completion date of November 28, 2016, provided a contracting mechanism for the agency to procure broadband connectivity and telecommunications services on a firm fixed-price basis without a small business set-aside. As a large business prime contractor specializing in satellite communications and managed network solutions, Hughes leveraged its expertise in advanced broadband technologies to deliver services to federal locations, positioning the company as a strategic vendor for government connectivity requirements.
Six task orders were issued under this BPA between July 2011 and September 2015, collectively valued at approximately $3.0 million, addressing broadband connectivity at field locations, internet connectivity services, and broadband annual maintenance services. Task orders were distributed across multiple performance locations, with the majority of services delivered in Washington, DC, and one engagement based in Germantown, Maryland. The awards maintained firm fixed-price pricing structures and were completed between December 2012 and September 2016. These task orders enabled the Department of Agriculture to obtain reliable satellite-based broadband solutions from a pre-competed vendor without conducting separate competitive procurements, streamlining the agency's acquisition of critical communications infrastructure for operational continuity across distributed locations.
