Telecom Italia SPA O TIM S.P.A.

Telecom Italia SPA O TIM S.P.A., operating through its Enterprise and Innovative Solutions division as TIM S.P.A., is a large, for-profit Italian telecommunications carrier that operates as a prime contractor providing wired and wireless telecommunications infrastructure, landline services, Wi-Fi installation and maintenance, fiber optic network development, and commercial circuit leases to U.S. federal agencies throughout Italy and select European locations. TIM S.P.A. competes in full-and-open procurements without small business set-asides, reflecting its position as an established large foreign telecommunications provider headquartered in Milan.

TIM S.P.A.'s federal work spans a portfolio of 1,354 awards (99.9% prime) with combined potential value of $135 million, of which $48.7 million has been obligated. The vendor's concrete capability footprint centers on commercial telecommunications leases ranging from 50 megabits to 1 gigabit intra-Europe circuits; wireless services and SIM card bundles at naval installations including Naples, Sigonella, and Aviano Air Base; landline telephone systems serving named tenant commands and administrative offices; Wi-Fi installation, maintenance, and sustainment at military buildings and squadrons; fiber optic cable plant work and fiber ring services; and dedicated internet lines supporting U.S. diplomatic missions in Italy. Representative awards include a single-award indefinite delivery contract with the Naval Computer and Telecommunications Command valued at $3.89 million through June 2029 for landline services to NCTS Naples and tenant commands (awarded June 2024, 40+ delivery orders issued); a $10.02 million definitive contract with Naval Computer and Telecommunications for outside cable plant services through December 2030 (August 2025); a $184.6 thousand delivery order from the Air Force for commercial Wi-Fi at multiple buildings through October 2028 (June 2025); a $117.5 thousand purchase order from Air Mobility Command for 1 gigabit intra-Europe circuit between Aviano and Bari through April 2030 (August 2025); a $206.4 thousand Naval Supply Systems Command purchase order for WiFi installation at Naval Air Station Sigonella through August 2030 (March 2025); and a $66 thousand Defense Media Activity purchase order for 200 MB commercial lease supporting intra-Europe telecommunications through March 2031 (August 2026).

Customer concentration is heavily skewed toward the Department of Navy. The top five customer organizations account for 88 percent of recent award count: Naval Computer and Telecommunications Command and Navy Installations Command (combined 1,070 awards, $74.5 million potential value) dominate the portfolio, followed by Naval Forces Europe and Africa (57 awards, $733 thousand), Naval Supply Systems Command (33 awards, $2 million), and Air Forces Europe and Africa (32 awards, $510 thousand). When ranked by potential value, the top customer concentration is 93 percent, with Army Cyber Command surfacing as a material contributor ($31.6 million across 12 awards), signaling a secondary but substantial DoD customer outside the Navy that may anchor larger circuits or network infrastructure work.

TIM S.P.A. holds five significant indefinite delivery contracts with Naval Computer and Telecommunications Command: N6817119D0004 (223 task orders, $3.4 million), N6817116D0026 (184 task orders, $11 million), N6817123D0006 (155 task orders, $1.6 million), N6817120D0003 (154 task orders, $1.6 million), and N6817121D0039 (153 task orders, $456 thousand). These single-award IDCs are the foundational vehicles driving TIM S.P.A.'s task order velocity. The largest identified IDC, N6817116D0026, carries $11 million in combined potential value under 184 task orders. The primary landline services IDC (N6817124D0039, awarded August 2025) is valued at $3.89 million and has generated over 40 delivery orders in its first two months, with individual task order values ranging from under $100 to $230,951.92. Task orders are typically firm fixed price with completion dates 6 to 12 months from award, supporting ongoing telecommunications operations at named installations including NCTS Naples, Naval Air Station Sigonella, Aviano Air Base, and NATO facilities in Poland.

Activity has remained flat year over year, with 152–160 awards annually from 2022 through 2025 and 36 awards recorded through early August 2026. Fifty-eight awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $2 million, representing a modest recompete exposure for TIM S.P.A.'s incumbent single-award IDCs. Top NAICS classifications are Wired Telecommunications Carriers (528 awards) and Wireless Telecommunications Carriers except Satellite (179–188 awards); top PSC coding is IT and Telecom - Network: Satellite Communications and Telecom Access Services (631 awards).

TIM S.P.A. is a subsidiary of the parent Telecom Italia SPA, Italy's dominant incumbent telecommunications provider. The vendor holds a single subcontract award: a February 2024 subcontract to L3 Technologies for Air Combat Command satellite communications gateway equipment and systems upgrades for EUR3 Fiber. Federal work is performed almost entirely in Italy (Naples, Sigonella, Aviano, Rome) and select European locations (Poland, Romania), leveraging the company's in-country infrastructure position to serve U.S. military and diplomatic operations throughout the European theater.
