The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) valued up to $13 billion to Lynk Global Inc. to provide Proliferated Low Earth Orbit (PLEO) satellite-based global connectivity services over a 10-year period. This multiple-award contract, with an initial $2,000 firm fixed price delivery order, aims to procure emerging commercial low-latency PLEO capabilities to support DISA mission partners' worldwide operations.
The initial task order will be performed at Fort Meade, Maryland from September to October 2023. No small business set-asides were used. Lynk Global, a telecommunications company with prior federal R&D contracts, was selected based on the lowest price technically acceptable evaluation criteria. This IDC vehicle builds upon DISA's strategy to leverage commercial PLEO satellite technologies to augment the agency's command, control, and communications infrastructure and services.
