About the company
Alaska Telephone Company, doing business as Skagway Telephone, is a for-profit subsidiary of Alaska Power & Telephone Company operating from Ketchikan, Alaska, and acts as a prime recipient of federal grants focused on rural broadband deployment and telecommunications infrastructure in Alaska. The company has received three Pilot Broadband Grants from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service under CFDA 10.855, with the most recent award of $33.017 million issued May 6, 2026, for completion by May 6, 2028.
Skagway Telephone's recent grant work centers on distance learning and telemedicine infrastructure in rural Alaska. The May 2026 USDA award targets Wasilla and funds deployment of broadband technologies, audio and video systems, IT infrastructure, and advanced telecommunications equipment to extend educational and medical services to underserved rural populations. Two prior Pilot Broadband Grants from USDA followed in June 2024 (completion June 2026) and August 2022 (completion August 2024). Beyond USDA, Skagway Telephone has served the Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration (25 awards, $113 thousand combined potential value) and the Department of the Interior's National Park Service Alaska Region (1 award, $243 thousand), working primarily under NAICS 517311 (Wired Telecommunications Carriers) and PSC category IT and Telecom—Telecommunications and Transmission.
The vendor's broader federal footprint spans thirty-three prime awards since 2001, though activity has been episodic—one award in 2012, one in 2020, one in 2022, one in 2024, and one in 2026—with combined potential value of $462 thousand against combined obligated dollars of $33.5 million, reflecting the substantial backlog in the current USDA grant cycle. One award reaches completion within the next twenty-four months. Task orders flow under indefinite delivery contracts HC101304H0597 (four task orders) and DCA20096H0085 (three task orders). The parent company, Alaska Power & Telephone Company, carries a Self Certified Small Disadvantaged Business designation.
