NTT Docomo, Inc.

NTT Docomo, Inc., Japan's largest telecommunications company, provides mobile phone services and cellular network support to the U.S. federal government in Japan as a prime contractor, operating exclusively on a full-and-open (non-set-aside) basis. The company is a for-profit corporate entity headquartered in Japan and competes across 412 recent awards with no subcontracting footprint.

The vendor's federal portfolio centers on a single mission: provisioning mobile cellular devices, voice and data service plans, and associated telecommunications infrastructure to support U.S. diplomatic, military, and government personnel at the U.S. Embassy in Tokyo and other installations throughout Japan. Work is performed entirely in Japan and spans two core capability areas—wireless telecommunications carrier services (NAICS 517210) and mobile device-as-a-service delivery (PSC It And Telecom - Mobile Device As A Service)—reflecting NTT Docomo's native position as the dominant mobile network operator in the Japanese market.

Customer concentration is extreme and geographically focused. The Marine Corps and Naval Computer and Telecommunications command dominate by dollar volume: 125 Marine Corps awards carry $30.9 million combined potential value, while 65 Naval Computer and Telecommunications awards carry $16.1 million. The Department of State's Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs leads by order count (107 awards) but carries only $2.7 million combined potential value, reflecting dozens of small monthly task orders for mobile device provisioning across State Department bureaus. Together, these three customers account for 297 awards and represent 99% of combined potential value across all federal sources.

NTT Docomo holds four parent contract vehicles anchoring all recent work. The single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract 19GE5022D0014 with State's Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs—valued at $1,563,065 and running through November 30, 2026—has generated 133 task orders worth $580 thousand in combined potential value and serves as the primary vehicle for ongoing mobile phone services to diplomatic personnel. The Basic Ordering Agreement FA520917G0001 and Indefinite Delivery Contract FA520907G0001, both valued in the tens of millions, fund the bulk of Marine Corps and Naval Computer and Telecommunications express reporting and mobile service orders. No GSA Schedules or government-wide IDIQs appear in the footprint; all work flows through agency-specific or single-award vehicles.

Activity has remained steady over the past five years (37 awards in 2022, 54 in 2024, 39 in 2025), with 155 awards reaching completion within the next twenty-four months and carrying $31.5 million in combined potential value. This represents a significant recompete exposure concentrated in Marine Corps and Naval Computer and Telecommunications vehicles. The vendor has maintained continuous federal registration and contracting relationships since at least the late 1990s; the source documents activity dating to September 1997.

Because NTT Docomo is Japan's sole practical provider of terrestrial mobile telecommunications infrastructure in the country, all of its federal contracts carry no set-aside designation and involve sole-source or non-competitive award rationale. Individual task orders under the State Department IDIQ range from under $50 to over $40,000; Marine Corps monthly express reporting orders typically range from $150,000 to $900,000. Award dates cluster around monthly billing cycles, particularly the first of each month and the beginning of each quarter, reflecting operational consumption patterns. The vendor has no identified subcontractors and operates as a pure prime contractor across all 412 awards in the source data.
