About the company
Expedition Communications, LLC, a veteran-owned small business based in Carlsbad, California, operates as a prime contractor delivering satellite communications infrastructure, television services, and managed connectivity solutions to federal agencies. The vendor holds SBA certification as a Veteran-Owned Small Business through March 7, 2027, and competes predominantly under total small business set-asides and full-and-open procurements; set-aside posture is mixed across the footprint, with roughly half of recent awards under small business set-asides and half unrestricted.
The vendor's capability portfolio centers on satellite-based services: DIRECTV and cable television provisioning to military installations and federal facilities, VSAT satellite support for scientific networks, satellite downlink maintenance and repair, consolidated internet and cable account management, and emergency satellite communications support. Representative work includes a $1.43 million definitive contract with the U.S. Geological Survey (awarded October 2024) for VSAT satellite support services to the Advanced National Seismic System and Global Seismic Network, running through March 31, 2030; a $2.94 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with the VA Technology Acquisition Center (awarded December 2025) for satellite downlink maintenance and repair across approximately 200 VA medical facilities nationwide through November 2030; and a $196.4 thousand purchase order with the Coast Guard Ninth District (awarded January 2025) for consolidated DIRECTV service management across 27 Coast Guard facilities in the Great Lakes region.
Customer concentration is stark: the Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center anchors 35% of combined potential value ($3.7 million across 6 awards), while the Department of Homeland Security Coast Guard accounts for 17% ($1.8 million across 13 awards). Together, those two agencies represent 52% of potential value across a 27-agency customer base. The top five agencies by potential value (VA, Coast Guard, Department of the Interior Geological Survey, GSA Federal Acquisition Service, and Department of the Navy Fleet Forces Command) account for 78% of combined potential value. The vendor places the majority of Coast Guard work under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (11 task orders, $1.4 million combined potential), supplementing that with a smaller Blanket Purchase Agreement footprint (4 task orders, $46 thousand).
Activity has declined markedly in the past two years: nine awards in 2022, twelve in 2023, ten in 2024, then five in 2025 and three in 2026 year-to-date. Seven awards carrying combined potential value of $1.1 million reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete risk across Coast Guard consolidated cable and internet contracts, Coast Guard D7 cable consolidation work, and several VA television service renewals. Expedition Communications operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of awards); the SCI dataset records minimal federal service-contract activity—$78 thousand invoiced in FY2025 across 0.6 FTEs—and zero subcontractor engagement, indicating the vendor does not report significant SCI-reportable labor on service contracts above the $150,000 threshold and does not rely on named subcontractors for delivery. The company's footprint centers on product-provisioning and infrastructure maintenance (satellite equipment, television service subscriptions, internet and cable account management) rather than labor-intensive professional services.
