The contracts will be multiple award indefinite-delivery, indefinite quantity (ID/IQ), fixed price contracts, awarded on a sole-source basis to the five incumbent contractors, for services to be acquired under firm-fixed-price task orders. Task orders shall be funded with O&M appropriations that are available for obligation at the time each task order is issued. The Period of Performance on the bridge contract is a base period of one year, starting on 06 June 2012 and a one-year option period. The services are required to provide assured Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) communications critical to the success of military operations, ranging from humanitarian relief to the full spectrum of warfare, conducted in support of the National Military Strategy. Military forces depend on satellite communications (SATCOM) systems to access essential information services to support land, sea, air, and space operations. The DoD has increasingly relied on commercial satellite communications (COMSATCOM) services to satisfy its expanding requirement for space-based communications. The DITCO Contracting Officer is Vanessa McCollum, 618-229-9176, e-mail: vanessa.mccollum@disa.mil
