The
Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) and General Services
Administration (GSA) have authorized Boeing Commercial Satellite
Services to act as a service provider of the Future COMSATCOM
Services Acquisition program.
Boeing
is now authorized to provide assorted satellite communications
services to U.S. government customers. This including both fixed and
mobile transponded and subscription services.
Boeing
offers subscription agreements on military-unique services like UHF
and Yahsat's military Ka-band, Ku-band and Ka-band commercial services
from the Inmarsat-5 satellite, and L-band services from Inmarsat and
Thuraya. These services can be secured through a GSA Schedule 70
contract with Boeing.
According
to Craig Cooning, CEO of Boeing Satellite Systems International, the
COMSATCOM program is another opportunity for Boeing to provide
quality satellite communication services to its customers.
"Boeing
continues to support the government's increasing need for satellite
communications bandwidth," Mr. Cooning said.
