About the company
Norstan Communications Inc., operating as Black Box Network Services - Montana, is a subsidiary of Black Box Corporation providing data cabling, installation, and audiovisual repair services to federal agencies as a prime contractor on small-dollar purchase orders and task orders. The vendor competes on full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designations across its recent federal work.
Norstan's capability portfolio centers on communications equipment repair and maintenance, data cabling installation, audiovisual system repair, and related telecommunications infrastructure support. Recent representative work includes a $7,877.63 firm fixed price purchase order from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for data cabling and installation at Newark, New Jersey (awarded September 24, 2026, completion September 2027); a $10,170 FEMA Region 10 audiovisual repair task order for conference rooms at the Northview Corporate Center in Bothell, Washington (awarded September 22, 2026, completion December 2026); and a $5,085 FEMA Region 10 audiovisual repair task order for the same facility (awarded June 12, 2026, completion July 2026).

The Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission leads by award count with 7 awards, while GSA Federal Acquisition Service dominates dollar concentration at $1.2 million across 3 awards — representing 81% of the vendor's combined potential value. Seventeen additional customer agencies account for the remaining 41% of awards, including the Department of the Army, Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Federal Emergency Management Agency, each placing one to two small-dollar orders. The vendor holds position on two GSA Indefinite Delivery contracts (GS06T05BND9010 and GS06T06BND0050), with 4 and 2 task orders respectively totaling $158 thousand in combined potential value. Across 41 recorded prime awards since 1984, Norstan has earned $1.7 million in combined potential value ($1.2 million obligated), with activity concentrated in 2007, 2011, 2012, 2013, and most recently 2026.
