About the company
Cameroon Telecommunications (doing business as Camtel), a state-owned telecommunications company headquartered in Yaounde, Cameroon, serves as a prime contractor delivering dedicated internet connectivity and telecommunications services to U.S. federal agencies operating in Cameroon on a full-and-open competitive basis, with no set-aside participation.
Camtel's federal footprint comprises 69 prime purchase orders and definitive contracts spanning the past eleven years, concentrated entirely on in-country telecommunications infrastructure supporting U.S. diplomatic missions and development programs. The vendor delivers bandwidth ranging from 4 Mbps to 101 Mbps internet links, virtual network links, VPN services, and fault-tolerant connectivity solutions to embassy operations in Yaounde. Representative work includes a $161,684 definitive contract with the Department of State Bureau of Diplomatic Teleservices awarded November 2024 for 101 Mbps internet deployment to the International School Compound in Yaounde; a $157,586 definitive contract awarded December 2024 by the Bureau of African Affairs for 101 Mbps embassy internet services; a $137,712 definitive contract with the Bureau of Diplomatic Teleservices for 70 Mbps internet services covering calendar year 2024; and a $107,175 definitive contract awarded April 2024 by the Bureau of Information Resource Management for 55 Mbps bandwidth. Most awards carry firm fixed-price terms with performance periods ranging from one month to five years.
Customer concentration sits entirely within the Department of State. The top three bureaus account for 90 percent of recent awards: the Bureau of African Affairs (30 awards, $864 thousand combined potential value), the Bureau of Diplomatic Teleservices (15 awards, $1.2 million combined potential value), and the Bureau of Information Resource Management (12 awards, $751 thousand combined potential value). The US Embassy Yaounde and the Department of Health and Human Services complete the active customer set. Top-level NAICS distribution reflects telecommunications resellers (24 awards) and internet publishing and broadcasting services (13 awards); PSC concentration runs to IT and Telecom—Internet (29 awards).
Recent activity has accelerated: Camtel received 11 awards in 2026 year-to-date compared to five in each of 2022, 2023, and 2024, with two in 2025. Combined obligated value across all 69 awards totals $3.1 million. Four awards carrying combined potential value of $116 thousand reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating modest recompete exposure. The vendor maintains no subcontractor relationships; all work is performed directly in Cameroon under Camtel's own operations.
