Verizon Business Network Services LLC

Verizon Business Network Services LLC, a subsidiary of Verizon Communications Inc. operating under the Verizon Business division and based in Ashburn, Virginia, delivers commercial telecommunications infrastructure, enterprise network services, and managed connectivity solutions to federal agencies as a prime contractor competing on a full-and-open basis with no set-aside activity. The company operates predominantly as a prime (100% of recent awards in the source), holding no small business designations and competing across federal civilian and defense agencies without reserve categories.

Verizon Business Network Services LLC's federal footprint centers on telecommunications delivery—Ethernet transport services, commercial network services, voice and data circuits, managed network services, optical wavelength services, Centrex support services, and enterprise infrastructure solutions—grounded in concrete work across defense and civilian agencies. Representative recent prime work includes a $65.2 million delivery order from the U.S. Coast Guard under the GSA Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) IDIQ for local telecommunications services extending through August 2032; a $22.2 million delivery order from Air Education and Training Command for call center services and toll-free service under the EIS vehicle through July 2032; a $12.3 million delivery order from the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) for commercial lease services supporting OTU-2 telecommunications links between Europe and the Middle East under the EIS vehicle, also completing July 2032; and a $1.75 million definitive contract from Army Cyber Command for local exchange voice and data circuits at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, completing July 2026. The company also holds a $6.94 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Naval Computer and Telecommunications Agency for Centrex support services and voice telecommunications supporting multiple naval installations in the Norfolk, Virginia area, completing January 2027.

Customer concentration runs heavily toward defense and agency-wide infrastructure customers. The top five funding agencies by award count account for 67% of recent awards: the Defense Information Systems Agency leads with 2,762 awards and $7.14 billion combined potential value; the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration follows with 764 awards; the U.S. Coast Guard carries 572 awards and $92.8 million potential value; the Naval Computer and Telecommunications Agency (Navy Installations Command) has 387 awards and $92.7 million potential value; and the Army Corps of Engineers Engineer Research and Development Center represents 339 awards and $694.1 million potential value. By potential-value share, DISA dominates at $7.14 billion, followed by the Department of the Treasury Internal Revenue Service at $1 billion, the Army Corps of Engineers at $694.1 million, and Army Cyber Command at $294.1 million. Activity has declined year over year—from 368 awards in 2022 to 39 in 2026 (through early July)—and 60 awards carrying $192 million in combined potential value reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete exposure.

Verizon Business Network Services LLC's primary vehicle footprint sits on the GSA Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) IDIQ, a $50 billion multiple-award vehicle through which the company places the majority of its telecommunications task orders across federal agencies; the Naval Computer and Telecommunications Agency single-award IDV valued at $748,103.76 through June 2027 for Centrex and voice services; and agency-specific indefinite delivery vehicles with DISA, the Engineer Research and Development Center, and the FAA. The company's service-contract-inventory profile shows SCI-reportable invoiced revenue of $303.5 million across FY2022–FY2024, with $7.4 million in FY2022, $204.3 million in FY2023, and $91.8 million in FY2024, reflecting a volatile trajectory. The FTE scale reported in SCI averaged 33.4 in FY2022, dropped to 18.6 in FY2023, then recovered to 38.9 in FY2024, suggesting project-based staffing volatility. On federal services contracts captured in SCI, median government-paid rates ran around $627/hr, with senior labor pricing reaching the 90th percentile of $1,735/hr and entry-level work at approximately $150/hr. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors accounted for an average of 3% of total contractor hours, with 18 named subcontractors identified, indicating Verizon Business Network Services LLC builds most delivery internally and relies minimally on sub engagement.

The company operates as a subcontractor to larger defense primes on select work—named sub-awards show engagement with Accenture Federal Services LLC on Integrated Enterprise Platform services, with Leidos, Inc. on Service Management, Integration, and Transport (SMIT) orders, and with The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory LLC on DARPA research program support materials. Corporate positioning reflects the company's role as a captive subsidiary of Verizon Communications Inc., leveraging parent company infrastructure, Verizon Maryland LLC relationships, and established federal contracting authority to deliver telecommunications infrastructure at scale across the Defense Department and civilian agencies. The vendor competes in the open federal marketplace with no set-aside presence and positions itself as a full-service telecommunications provider anchored to large government-wide vehicles (primarily EIS and DISA contracts) rather than to small-business or agency-specific reserve categories.
