About the company
Speedcast Communications, Inc., a subsidiary of foreign-owned Speedcast Americas, Inc., provides satellite communications and network engineering services to federal agencies primarily as a subcontractor (83% of recent awards), with one prime award in the source portfolio. The vendor operates as a for-profit corporate entity and competes in full-and-open procurements without SBA set-aside designations.
Speedcast Communications' federal work centers on Arctic and remote-site satellite communications infrastructure. The vendor delivers VSAT internet connectivity, software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) equipment deployment, satellite network operations, asset tracking via satellite, and on-site network engineering support. Representative subcontract work includes a November 2025 delivery of VSAT internet connection and SD-WAN equipment to Battelle Memorial Institute on the Arctic Research Support and Logistics Services (ARSLS) contract, a May 2025 satellite network communications implementation for the same prime and program, and an August 2024 engineering and network support task for ARSLS. Earlier deliverables include OneWeb broadband satellite service implementation in Alaska (May 2023) and GSatTrack asset tracking service deployment (April 2023), both also under Battelle as prime.
Customer concentration is narrow and specialized. The National Science Foundation's Division of Polar Programs funds five of six recent awards (100% coverage across the top customer ranks), with the Department of the Navy Installations Command placing one award. All NSF work flows through Battelle Memorial Institute as the prime contractor; the vendor holds no direct NSF prime relationship in the source portfolio. Combined dollars obligated across the six awards total $416 thousand, reflecting task-order or sub-award scale typical of specialized logistics support. Activity is sparse but persistent — one award in 2004, then a gap until 2023, followed by two awards in 2023, one in 2024, and two in 2025. The vendor's primary NAICS association is Facilities Support Services, with secondary framing under Telephone and/or Communications Services.
