Ameritel Communications Corporation

Ameritel Communications Corporation, doing business as Ameritel, is a for-profit small business based in Rockville, Maryland, that supplies office equipment leasing, maintenance, and repair services—including copiers, printers, and multifunction devices—to federal agencies as a prime contractor exclusively through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), with 886 recent awards across 153 customer agencies.

Ameritel's federal work centers on the procurement, leasing, and maintenance of Canon and other office equipment. Representative work includes a $3.74 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement for multifunction device lease and maintenance services, an $8 million BPA with the Department of State's Bureau of Administration for office global publishing services multifunction device solutions, and ongoing delivery orders for copier leases and maintenance across the Department of Justice, Customs and Border Protection, the National Park Service, and other civilian agencies. The vendor also holds a $29.6 thousand BPA with Federal Correctional Institution Fort Dix for printer and scanner lease and maintenance services. Recent delivery orders range from sub-thousand-dollar copier purchases to multi-million-dollar lease agreements spanning five or more years with maintenance and consumable supply provisions.

Customer concentration is diffuse across civilian agencies. The top five customers by award count—the Department of Justice Offices Boards and Divisions Justice Management Division (41 awards, $646 thousand), Customs and Border Protection (37 awards, $1.9 million), the National Cancer Institute (33 awards, $915 thousand), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (26 awards, $276 thousand), and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (26 awards, $4.3 million)—represent only 18 percent of total awards. By dollar value, the Department of State's Bureau of Administration dominates at $14.4 million across 13 awards (roughly 13 percent of combined potential value); Immigration and Customs Enforcement follows at $4.3 million, the Department of Agriculture at $4.2 million, the Secret Service at $2.5 million, and Customs and Border Protection at $1.9 million. Together these five agencies account for 25 percent of combined potential value but are spread across 111 awards, signaling fragmentation rather than concentration risk.

All 886 awards flow through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), which serves as Ameritel's sole parent vehicle. Delivery orders under MAS carried $49.1 million in combined potential value. The vendor competes in full-and-open procurements (the majority of recent awards); approximately 40 percent of awards in the recent portfolio carry small business set-aside designations (Total Small Business or Partial Small Business), and the remainder are unrestricted full-and-open awards. Ameritel does not hold 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or WOSB certifications; it qualifies as a small business by size standard alone.

Activity has remained steady: 47 awards in 2022, 44 in 2023, 45 in 2024, declining to 35 in 2025 and 14 so far in 2026 (reflecting the source date of mid-July). Sixty-four awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $3.5 million, representing recompete exposure primarily in State Department BPAs and ICE equipment leases.

The award portfolio is heavily concentrated in equipment procurement and maintenance. The top NAICS category is Photographic and Photocopying Equipment Manufacturing (498 awards), followed by Computer and Office Machine Repair and Maintenance (174 awards). The top PSC codes mirror this: Maint/Repair/Rebuild of Equipment for Office Machines (153 awards) and Printing, Duplicating, and Bookbinding Equipment (136 awards). The vendor executes work nationwide, with performance locations ranging from Washington, D.C. to El Paso, Texas to San Francisco, California, but administrative headquarters in Rockville, Maryland.

Ameritel holds no significant subcontract footprint; the source documents 100 percent of recorded awards as prime contracts. The vendor does not appear in the source as a subcontractor to other primes. Corporate structure lists two subsidiary names—Zeroid & Company and duplicate Ameritel entities—but the source does not describe operational roles or capability distinctions among them.
