NTT Docomo, Inc.

NTT Docomo, Inc., a for-profit telecommunications company headquartered in Japan, operates as a prime contractor delivering wireless telecommunications carrier services and mobile device-as-a-service to the Department of Defense and Department of State on a full-and-open basis, with no subcontracting footprint and 100% prime award posture across 422 federal awards spanning the past three decades.

NTT Docomo competes exclusively under full-and-open procurement with no set-aside designations, reflecting its market position as Japan's largest mobile network operator and sole practical provider of telecommunications infrastructure in the region. The company holds one named subsidiary, Docomo Pacific, Inc. Work performed centers on mobile phone services, cellular devices, voice and data service plans, and associated telecommunications infrastructure supporting U.S. diplomatic, military, and government personnel stationed in Japan. Representative prime work includes a $30.9 million portfolio with the U.S. Marine Corps for express reporting telecommunications services (125 delivery orders); a $1,563,065 single-award IDIQ with the Department of State's Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs for mobile cellular services across the U.S. Embassy in Tokyo and other diplomatic posts (137 task orders, $571 thousand combined potential value); and a $17.5 million basic ordering agreement with Department of Defense for ongoing telecommunications support (63 task orders under vehicle FA520907G0001). Additional recent delivery orders include a $612,347 Marine Corps express reporting order (October 2025), a $794,135 Naval Computer and Telecommunications order (October 2025), a $314,337 Marine Corps order (November 2025), and a $386,569 Department of the Army order (July 2026).

Customer concentration is acute and defense-heavy. The top five customers account for 85% of recent award count: the U.S. Marine Corps (125 awards, $30.9 million), the Naval Computer and Telecommunications Command (67 awards, $16.2 million), the Department of State Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs (109 awards, $2.7 million), the Department of State Bureau of Diplomatic Security (30 awards, $98 thousand), and US Embassy Tokyo (29 awards, $83 thousand). By potential value, the Marine Corps and Naval Computer and Telecommunications Command anchor 99% of contract dollars, while State Department bureaus collectively represent smaller order values reflecting per-line mobile service provisioning.

NTT Docomo places work under four primary parent vehicles: the Department of State's IDIQ 19GE5022D0014 for diplomatic mobile services (137 task orders); Department of Defense Basic Ordering Agreement FA520917G0001 (137 task orders, $33 million combined potential value); Department of Defense IDIQ SGE50017D0054 (76 task orders, $888 thousand); and Department of Defense IDIQ FA520907G0001 (63 task orders, $17.5 million). All work is performed in Japan; place of performance is Japan for all awards.

Activity has remained steady year over year at 22 to 54 awards per year over the past five years (2022: 37; 2023: 51; 2024: 54; 2025: 39; 2026: 22). The recompete cliff is significant: 164 awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $32.7 million, representing nearly 60% of the vendor's active portfolio and concentrated among Marine Corps, Naval Computer and Telecommunications, and Army customers.

Capability coding reflects wireless telecommunications carrier services. Primary NAICS classifications include Wireless Telecommunications Carriers (except Satellite) (140 awards), Translation and Interpretation Services (138 awards, reflecting communications support scope), and related carrier categories. PSC coding emphasizes mobile device-as-a-service (140 awards), general IT and telecommunications support (110 awards), and professional communications support services (51 awards).

NTT Docomo has maintained federal registration since 2003 and holds no SBA certifications or set-aside eligibility. The company operates as a foreign-owned telecommunications entity with no U.S. domestic competition for its role as Japan's dominant in-country carrier serving U.S. government operations across the Pacific region.
