About the company
Cable & Wireless Panama S.A., a for-profit international organization based in Panama City, operates as a prime contractor delivering local telecommunications services to U.S. federal agencies stationed in Panama. The vendor competes exclusively in full-and-open procurement, with no set-aside designation across its federal footprint.
Cable & Wireless Panama S.A. provides cellular phone services, internet connectivity, fixed telephone lines, and switchboard systems to support diplomatic, military, research, and border-security missions throughout Panama. The vendor holds a SAM.gov registration dating to 2007 and has built a stable customer base among agencies with permanent or sustained operational presence in the country. Representative work includes a $145.8 thousand fixed telephone service contract with the Smithsonian Institution's Tropical Research Institute and Office of Information Technology (awarded February 2024, through September 2026), a $127 thousand internet service delivery order with Army Special Operations Command at Forward Operating Base Corozal East (awarded September 2023, exercising option year two through September 2028), and a $68.5 thousand internet and cellular phone services award from Army Southern Command supporting Security Force Assistance Brigade operations (awarded December 2023, through November 2028). A $22.1 thousand Army Special Operations Command order placed in January 2025 procures 21 smartphones and comprehensive cellular voice-and-data services with 24-hour response-time service-level agreements.
Customer concentration is pronounced and stable. The top five agencies account for 67% of award count and 73% of combined potential value. The Department of State's Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs leads both rankings with 10 awards totaling $823 thousand (embassy and switchboard phone lines), followed by the Smithsonian Institution with 10 awards worth $357 thousand (mobile and fixed telephone services for research operations). Army Special Operations Command holds 6 awards worth $274 thousand, Army Southern Command holds 3 awards worth $80 thousand, and Customs and Border Protection holds 5 awards worth $66 thousand. All work is performed on-site in Panama, serving U.S. government personnel and mission requirements with local telecommunications infrastructure.
Activity has remained flat — 4 to 6 awards annually over the past five years — with 51 total awards yielding $2.2 million in combined potential value and $1.6 million in combined obligations (75% realization rate). Six awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $194 thousand and face recompete exposure. The vendor places one task order stream under an Indefinite Delivery Contract (19PM0719D0001) managed by the Department of State, which has generated four task orders worth $286 thousand. Cable & Wireless Panama S.A. carries no subcontract relationships in its federal footprint; all work is delivered as a standalone prime. Work spans Wired Telecommunications Carriers, Agents for Wireless Telecommunications Services, and Telecommunications Resellers NAICS categories, with PSC coding concentrated in telecommunications network management, satellite and telecom access services, and mobile device-as-a-service delivery.
