Under a multi-year Blanket Purchase Agreement,
SES Space & Defense will provide multi-orbit, multi-band
commercial satellite services to USEUCOM leveraging an agnostic
SATCOM network
SES’s wholly-owned subsidiary, SES Space & Defense, has been
awarded a five-year Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) through Space
Systems Command (SSC) with the help of the United States Space
Force’s Commercial Satellite Communications Office (CSCO) with a
ceiling value of USD 117 million in support of the United States
European Command (USEUCOM) delivering multi-orbit, multi-band
satellite capabilities.
To meet enduring and emerging mission requirements in the
USEUCOM Area of Responsibility (AOR), SES Space & Defense
partnered with several industry-leading players to provide managed
service using UHF, L, C, X, Ku and Mil-Ka bands in the USEUCOM
Region. The company will also provide Risk Management
Framework-accredited commercial teleport and terrestrial transport
backhaul services to Government Entry Points (GEP). Under the BPA,
SES Space & Defense will deliver program management support,
bandwidth management, network monitoring, and the opportunity to
procure ancillary equipment such as remote Very Small Aperture
Terminals (VSATs).
“This BPA will accelerate access to acquiring COMSATCOM services
for the DoD in the USEUCOM Area of Responsibility region,” said
David Fields, President and CEO, SES Space & Defense. “To
support the DoD needs we have assembled a team comprised of the
best in the industry to deliver multi-band, multi-orbit COMSATCOM
capabilities that provide alternate SATCOM paths for greater
