CBP Sole Source to AT&T Mobility for Wireless Services

The Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has published a Special Notice regarding a sole source procurement to AT&T Mobility for wireless communication services. This notice, posted on July 10, 2025, with the same due date, announces CBP's intent to award a contract valued at $78,075.09 to AT&T Mobility under GSA MAS Schedule #47QTCA19D00MV. The procurement is categorized under IT and Telecom - Network as a Service and involves continuing wireless services under an expired Interagency Resources Wireless Agreement (IRWA). The contract will support CBP's worldwide offices with mission-critical mobile voice and data plans, device connectivity, mobile hotspot services, and government-prioritized emergency communications essential for national and economic security operations.

The purpose of this sole source procurement is to maintain continuity of critical wireless communication services that support CBP's operational requirements through May 24, 2025, while managing the closeout of an expired IRWA. CBP has determined that AT&T Mobility is the only provider capable of meeting their specific communication needs, citing unique capabilities including comprehensive network coverage with FirstNet infrastructure, existing government contract compatibility, and priority communication services such as Wireless Priority Service (WPS) and Government Emergency Telecommunications Service (GETS). The contracting officer has determined the pricing to be fair and reasonable based on market research that confirmed no other providers can deliver the required bundled services aligned with CBP's operational needs. This is a sole source award with no set-aside designation, meaning other contractors are not eligible to compete for this specific procurement opportunity.
