About Telesat U.s. Services LLC

Telesat U.S. Services LLC, a foreign-owned satellite communications provider based in Arlington, Virginia, operates as a prime contractor delivering commercial satellite bandwidth, gateway services, and satellite-based defense systems integration to the Defense Department and civilian space agencies. The vendor holds a $151 billion multiple-award IDIQ with the Missile Defense Agency's Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program and a $3.6 million Other Transaction IDV with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency for commercial satellite bandwidth and gateway services supporting beyond-line-of-sight communications.

Telesat's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward defense and space R&D. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency accounts for two awards with $185.6 million in combined potential value — a $182 million Other Transaction Agreement for the Space-Based Adaptive Communications Node (BACN) program focused on developing a global high-speed satellite network backbone in low Earth orbit, and a $3.6 million OT IDIQ for commercial satellite bandwidth services. The Missile Defense Agency holds two awards — the SHIELD multiple-award IDIQ with a $151 billion ceiling and an initial delivery order valued at $500 awarded December 29, 2025, with place of performance in Huntsville, Alabama. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center awarded a $119 thousand purchase order on January 1, 2022, for an Access to Space Study with completion in August 2022. Combined potential value across all five prime awards stands at $185.7 million, with $27.5 million obligated as of the reporting period (15% of potential value). Work is concentrated in national defense R&D services and experimental development across NAICS 541712 (Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences).

Telesat holds 100% prime positioning with no subcontractor awards in the source data. Award activity shows two task orders in 2022 and two in 2025, with the SHIELD contract award on December 29, 2025, representing the most recent action.
