NAICS 5174 encompasses satellite telecommunications services, which involve the transmission of voice, data, text, sound, and video using satellite-based communication networks. These services typically include providing satellite internet connectivity, telephone services, television broadcasting, and data transmission across global geographic regions. Satellite telecommunications infrastructure enables communication in remote locations, supports mobile and fixed communication needs, and provides critical connectivity for government, military, commercial, and research applications. Recent federal contract awards in this category demonstrate a wide range of satellite communication requirements, predominantly from military and federal research agencies. Contract values range from approximately $20,000 to $250,000, with performance periods typically spanning one to five years. Notable awarding agencies include the Department of the Navy, Department of Homeland Security, and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Frequent awardees include specialized firms like KVH Industries, Spire Global, L3 Harris Technologies, and Woods Hole Group. Many solicitations are set aside for small businesses, with a size standard of $44 million in annual receipts, and performance locations span domestic and international regions, with significant concentration in military bases, research facilities, and maritime environments. Recent federal contract opportunities in this NAICS category reveal diverse satellite telecommunication requirements across government agencies. These opportunities include satellite internet services for field research in Mali, satellite television services for military and veteran healthcare facilities, maritime tracking services, emergency response communication systems, and specialized satellite data transmission for scientific research. Federal agencies such as the Department of the Navy, Coast Guard, Veterans Affairs, and NOAA are seeking services ranging from satellite imagery subscriptions and vessel tracking to emergency communication infrastructure and scientific research support. Performance locations include domestic military bases, international research sites, and maritime environments, reflecting the broad utility of satellite telecommunications technologies.
